Amazon Sellers, we’ve all heard horror stories about account suspensions and lost revenue, but do you know what mistakes could put your business at risk? In this week’s episode of Amazon Seller School, I sit down with Leah McHugh from eCommerce Chris to tackle the most critical issues sellers are facing today—bundle and variation compliance, AI tools, and how to avoid those dreaded Amazon suspensions.

Show Notes: https://amazonseller.school/avoiding-amazon-account-suspensions-bundles-variations-and-ai-compliance-with-leah-mchugh/

Amazon is cracking down harder than ever on incorrect bundles and variations, and Leah gives us the inside scoop on what the platform is really enforcing. "Amazon’s always had this policy, but now we’re seeing more suspensions because brands are pushing back." Bundling your products the wrong way? You could be suspended before you even know what hit you.

Ever wonder how AI is playing a role in compliance? It's not always your friend. We dig into how Amazon’s AI is scanning listings and why it’s flagging some for suspension—even when the seller has done nothing wrong. If you've been using AI to handle compliance, you might want to think twice. "AI isn’t always the magic bullet sellers think it is."

👉 Get the right letter of authorization before bundling major brands. 🔹 👉 AI tools used for compliance often fall short, leading to more headaches.

👉 Amazon’s variation policy is extremely literal—one small mistake, and you’re at risk.

👉 Avoid suspension by following bundling guidelines to the letter.

Whether you’re just starting or you’re a seasoned seller, this episode is packed with actionable insights that could save your Amazon business from costly mistakes. Don’t miss Leah’s expert advice on how to navigate Amazon’s tricky suspension landscape.

Amazon Sellers, ever wondered how to scale your business to 7 figures? This episode has the answers. I sat down with Yoni Kozminski, founder of MultiplyMii, who’s taken an Amazon business from $2 million to $5 million by leveraging top Filipino talent. It’s all about strategic hiring, smart delegation, and building efficient systems that keep you out of the weeds.

Show Notes: https://amazonseller.school/scaling-your-amazon-business-with-top-filipino-talent-lessons-from-yoni-kozminski/

Yoni shares invaluable insights into how hiring Filipino virtual assistants transformed his business and allowed him to focus on scaling. His approach isn’t just about getting tasks off your plate but also making sure the right people are doing the right jobs—based on skills, not just task lists. As Yoni puts it, “When you build task lists, you become the bottleneck of your own business. Instead, delegate based on skills and accountability.”

Amazon Sellers, if you’ve hit that $500K to $1 million mark, this episode is packed with gems to push you to the next level. You’ll hear why building out a company wiki and SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) is a game-changer. Yoni explains, “A company wiki is self-serve. It keeps you from getting sucked into every single task and lets your team grow independently.”

Key highlights from the episode

👉: Build a team around specific skills, not tasks.

👉: Filipino talent offers excellent value—Yoni’s top hires include graphic designers, PPC experts, and web developers.

👉: Pay structure matters. Benefits like paid holidays and bonuses help you attract and retain top talent.

Whether you're looking to scale or exit, this episode covers it all. Yoni dives deep into the importance of knowing your end game: Are you building a lifestyle business or prepping for a big liquidity event? Once you have that clarity, it’s time to set goals and delegate effectively. You’ll learn how he structured a team that helped him hit $5 million and beyond without burning out.

Listen in to find out how you can start applying these strategies to your own Amazon business—using the same blueprint that worked for Yoni.
