Summary
On today's podcast we talk about BUYING and SELLING Amazon's account. Yes, it's allowed and legal - but doing it yourself is unwise.
Aaron (our guest) has helped over 1,500 sellers navigate the transfer of ownerships of Amazon stores. Even an "empty" Amazon store that's sat dormant for a couple years could be worth significant cash!

Some details:
It's within Amazon policy and a perfectly legitimate arrangement to transfer business ownership of an Amazon seller account.
Who should BUY an Amazon account:
If you are well positioned to take advantage of buying an established Amazon account at the start of your Amazon journey, it can make sense to do so! Benefits include potentially far faster payouts, fewer category or storage restrictions, a better seller rating on the platform and an established account health reputation with Amazon - just to name a few.
Who should SELL an Amazon account:
Are you looking to step away from Amazon for a season? Maybe other opportunities have come your way, or you're in a season of life (permanently or temporarily) where selling your account makes sense. Your established account could be worth more money that you might realize!
That's the topic of today's show!

| 0:00.0 | Hey, business building warrior. I got a cool episode today. I'm going to be talking to a guy |
| 0:05.1 | named Aaron from ecom stores. And for the past several years, he's been helping new Amazon sellers |
| 0:13.0 | ramp up faster by getting them into established Amazon stores. And he's helped those who are looking to either temporarily or permanently exit Amazon sell their stores. |
| 0:28.9 | If you've had an Amazon account for a while, it may be worth a lot more money than you realize. |
| 0:33.4 | So buying and selling Amazon accounts, we're going to jump into that topic today with the foremost expert that I know on the subject, |
| 0:42.4 | who's helped, as you hear today, over 1,500 sellers either buy an account or sell their account. |
| 0:51.0 | Something I love about the show today, it opened up some new worlds of possibility, |
| 0:55.5 | even for me and my own business as we had this conversation. Now, I've been working with Aaron, |
| 0:59.4 | like I said, for the past few years, just kind of occasionally sending him, referring him, |
| 1:04.2 | someone who wants to either buy or sell an Amazon account. But they're handling it with such |
| 1:07.9 | excellence. It started to occur to me. I should probably educate myself. Who out there is doing this? Who's the best at it? Who's really got the heart of the |
| 1:17.4 | small seller in mind? Who's approved by Amazon with their processes as far as Amazon doesn't say |
| 1:24.7 | this is bad. Amazon says, yeah, this is fine. He gives us plenty of evidence of that |
| 1:29.9 | today as well, that they know what they're doing. They're good at it. They've had zero issues with |
| 1:34.6 | the clients that we've sent them. So some of the ideas that popped in my head as I was listening to |
| 1:39.4 | Aaron today is, one, you can have more than one Amazon account, more than one business entity, more than one |
| 1:45.4 | account. That's perfectly fine. If you do it within Amazon's policies, totally allowed. |
| 1:50.7 | Another thought that maybe someone's thinking, oh, I know someone that got suspended, they can just |
| 1:54.9 | go buy another account then, right? No, as Aaron shares today, if you've been suspended, |
| 2:03.4 | they're not going to do anything to help you skirt Amazon's policy. |
| 2:05.9 | They're not going to put their business at risk by doing that. |
| 2:12.3 | You want to talk to someone who can help you get reinstated, which Jeff Schick is who I suggest you start with there. |
