1️⃣ Why I Decided to Start an Amazon Seller Account

  • Everyone talks about passive income and side hustles these days.

  • For me, I wasn’t sure where to start, but I knew I wanted to try something meaningful.

  • So I decided to take the first step: signing up for an Amazon Seller account.

  • It felt scary at first, but I told myself, "Just try. "

2️⃣ How to Sign Up for an Amazon Seller Account (Step-by-Step)

Step 1: Go to Amazon Seller Central
https://sell.amazon.com

Step 2: Choose Your Plan

  • Individual Plan: $0.99 per sale (good for testing)

  • Professional Plan: $39.99/month (good for serious sellers)
    I chose the Professional Plan because I wanted to take this seriously.

Step 3: Gather Your Information
You’ll need:
✅ Business name & address (or your personal info)
✅ Bank account (I used Payoneer)
✅ Credit card
✅ Tax ID (or Social Security Number for the US)
✅ Phone number for verification

Step 4: Submit Your Application
Upload your ID, wait for verification (this might take a few days).

Step 5: Congratulations! You’re an official Amazon Seller!

3️⃣ My Experience & Feelings

  • Honestly, I was nervous at first. I didn’t know if I could do it.

  • But once I saw the confirmation email, I felt a little proud.

  • This was my first step toward building something on my own—LEV LINA was real now.

4️⃣ A Small Encouragement

If you’re thinking about starting, just do it.
You don’t have to know everything right away.
It’s okay to feel nervous—just take that first step.
I’m learning as I go too, and I’m sharing my journey so you don’t feel alone.

Let’s build our dreams together.
