Some new sellers leave all responsibility in the hands of VAs or account manager services. Leaving the responsibility of your account to a VA can be risky, as they may not be familiar with the policies and procedures that are in place. As the owner of your business, it is important to be responsible for your own account and make sure that you are taking the necessary steps to avoid any potential suspensions.

How can I prevent my Amazon account from being suspended?

If you receive a performance notification from Amazon, don’t panic! There are things you can do to improve your account and get back in good standing with Amazon. In this article, we’ll discuss some tips for avoiding suspensions and getting reinstated if your account has already been suspended.

First, let’s take a look at what you can do to meet Amazon’s minimum performance thresholds and avoid a suspension.

  1. Make sure you’re shipping on time. One of the most important performance metrics for Amazon is the late shipment rate. If your orders are not shipping on time, you’re at risk of suspension. Make sure you’re shipping all orders within the delivery window that you specified when you created your shipping profile.
  2. Improve your order fulfilment rate. Another important metric is the fulfilment rate. This measures the percentage of orders that were successfully fulfilled. Make sure you’re shipping all orders that are ready to ship, and keep a close eye on your inventory levels to avoid overselling items.
  3. Reduce your cancellation rate. The cancellation rate measures the percentage of cancelled orders compared to the total number of orders placed. Make sure you’re only cancelling orders if it’s absolutely necessary, and try to avoid cancelling orders late in the order fulfilment process.
  4. Keep your inventory levels in check. Having too much or too little inventory can lead to cancelled orders and suspension from Amazon. Make sure you’re keeping a close eye on your inventory levels and ordering more stock when necessary.

5. If you are selling items that violate Amazon’s intellectual property rights, you are at risk of suspension from the platform. IP complaints can come from Amazon or from other sellers, and can result in the suspension of your account.

If you receive an IP complaint from Amazon, it is important to take action immediately. You will need to provide documentation proving that you have the right to sell the infringing products. You may also need to stop selling the infringing products and remove them from your inventory.

If you receive an IP complaint from another seller, it is important to take action immediately. You will need to provide documentation proving that you have the right to sell the infringing products. You may also need to stop selling the infringing products and remove them from your inventory. In some cases, you may also need to file a counter-notice with Amazon.

More about the POA(Plan of Action).

A Plan of Action, or POA, is a document that outlines the steps you will take to resolve an issue with Amazon. If your Amazon account has been suspended, you will need to send a letter to Amazon’s Seller Performance team outlining the steps you will take to get reinstated. A POA can also be used for other purposes, such as resolving product quality issues or order fulfilment problems.

When writing a POA, it’s important to be concise and specific. You should include information on what went wrong, what you plan to do to fix the problem, and how long it will take you to resolve the issue. In addition, you should provide contact information for yourself and any other individuals involved in resolving the issue.

It’s important to remember that following through on your POA is just as important as submitting it. Amazon may check in with you periodically to ensure that you are taking the necessary steps to resolve the issue. If you fail to follow through, your Amazon account may be terminated.
