Seller registration phone number question
Tried to signup for Seller account and it says “provide a new phone number or select an already verified phone number”. I use this number for Prime and Video streaming and photos and apparently you need a different phone number to register for a Seller account. I found this kind of absurd as I’m not going to get another phone number just for Seller as of right now but has anyone else ran into this problem before or found a way around it?

Do I really want to sell on Amazon?
It really doesn’t seem to be worth it. The sign up process has been, invasive, but I get why. But each step seems to take a week to get through. Right now it won’t accept my credit card or debit card for my business so I have to wait the 48hrs to see if it will finally let that one work. And reading some of the experiences, leaves me wondering if getting it all set up is going to be worth the stress and time. I do work full time, own a business on the side and my husband runs the day to day and I assist when I can. Any helpful words of advice?

How to Sell Restricted Products on Amazon Without a Supplier Invoice?
Hi everyone,
I’m facing a bit of a dilemma and I’m hoping someone here has some advice.
I have a large quantity of products (literally a truckload) that I purchased from an insolvency sale here in Germany. Unfortunately, these products fall under Amazon’s “restricted” category, which means that before I can list them, Amazon requires me to upload an invoice from a supplier.
The problem is: there is no supplier I can contact. The original company that sold these products went bankrupt, and there’s no way for me to get an official confirmation or invoice from them.
Amazon is by far the only viable sales channel for these items, but without their approval I’m stuck with the whole load sitting in storage.
Has anyone been in a similar situation? Is there any legitimate workaround or alternative documentation Amazon might accept? Any tips would be hugely appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

What was this person trying to tell me or ask me?
I get a phone call. Some foreign sounding guy is identifying himself as an “amazon affiliate company”, asking me about an item on Amazon that I sell, (in his words – “cross-sell”)? Ok, what about it? He mentions the manufacturer name, and (I think) he thinks I am the manufacturer (big company). I say, I am an authorized seller I am not the manufacturer. So he just goes babbling on about how he understands and more babbling about cross selling. Never did figure out if he has a problem with the item or me or the manufacturer or if he just wanted to sell them. Anybody else get weird calls about “cross selling”?

Why Most Amazon Sellers Choose the Wrong Software First
The majority of new Amazon sellers don’t choose software—they default to it. They Google something like “best FBA tool,” get slammed with ads, buy a bundle they don’t understand, and hope for the best.
That’s why:
Sellers waste an average of 12+ hours/week cobbling together disconnected tools and spreadsheets
Nearly 42% of sellers say poor software decisions cost them profit in the first 6 months
Over 60% switch tools within the first year due to feature gaps or pricing traps
The cost of a bad choice? Slower growth. Mismanaged campaigns. Burnout.
Let’s fix that.
What Every Amazon Seller Needs From Their Software (No Matter the Stage)
Whether you’re a first-time private labeler or scaling wholesale, the tools you use should solve these core needs:
| Need | What Your Software Must Do |
|---|---|
| Get Seen | Keyword rank tracking, listing health alerts, organic rank visibility |
| Win Trust | Review automation, compliant messaging, review rate monitoring |
| Protect Margins | Real-time profit tracking, FBA fees, COGS breakdown |
| Scale Ads | PPC performance optimization, AI suggestions, wasted spend alerts |
| Stay Competitive | Inventory monitoring, pricing changes, keyword movement |
| Save Time | Workflow automation, daily digest insights, smart alerts |
Smart Questions to Ask Before You Choose (and Why They Matter)
1. Is this software built for Amazon sellers—or just adapted for them?
Many tools started as generic ecommerce platforms. You want something purpose-built for Amazon’s quirks: SP-API data access, messaging compliance, ASIN-level profitability.
Tools with real Amazon integrations outperform generic dashboards by 28% in campaign accuracy and listing responsiveness.
2. Will this replace multiple tools—or add to the chaos?
The average seller uses 4–6 tools—often overlapping. That means double cost and scattered data.
Choose an all-in-one platform that covers:
- PPC optimization
- Review & feedback automation
- Profit & fee visibility
- Inventory alerts
- Keyword rank tracking and listing performance alerts
3. Does it offer clarity or just data?
You don’t need more reports—you need actionable insights.
Look for:
- Clear listing grades
- Keyword performance changes
- Product-specific profit snapshots
- AI-powered PPC suggestions
Sellers who switch to insight-based platforms report 15–35% faster optimization than those using data-only tools.
4. Is support helpful—or just a help center?
Onboarding is critical. If you feel lost on Day 1, you’ll stay lost.
Look for platforms that combine:
- Personalized onboarding
- Responsive human support
- Helpful, searchable knowledge base content
A strong help center is a supplement, not a substitute, for expert guidance. You want both.
5. Will this pricing scale with me—or against me?
The reality is, your software should grow with your business—not become a blocker as you scale.
The Seller Labs Bundle is built around this philosophy. Our all-in-one Genius bundle gives you the essential tools Amazon sellers need—reviews, advertising, profitability, keywords, insights—all under one roof, with pricing that scales based on your revenue.
That means:
- No hidden fees
- You get access to the full power of the Genius bundle from day one
- As your sales grow, your software evolves right alongside you
No more juggling disconnected tools or overpaying for bloated platforms. With Seller Labs, everything works together—because it was built to. Bundled platforms with transparent pricing tend to save sellers 18–25% annually.
Common Mistakes That Cost Sellers Time and Profit
Buying based on a single feature (like review requests) without considering total workflow needs
Assuming “more features = better” when many go unused
Ignoring whether support is human, fast, or relevant to Amazon
Not checking if profitability includes actual COGS and fees, not just revenue
Final Checklist: If Your Tool Doesn’t Offer This, Keep Looking
| Must-Have | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Real-time keyword tracking | So you know what’s moving the needle |
| AI-driven ad optimization | Stop wasting ad spend manually testing |
| Review automation | Boost review velocity compliantly |
| Profit visibility with costs | Make data-backed restocking and ad decisions |
| Unified dashboard | End the tab-hopping and get focused |
| Seller-focused support + docs | Learn fast, fix fast, scale smart |
