eBay has minimum performance standards for areas within a seller’s control: to meet buyers’ expectations, sellers should resolve customer issues promptly, follow through on return policy and ship items on time.
As the business grows, and the number of orders increases, it becomes more difficult to maintain levels of service without some help.
Instead of expanding your assortment, looking for new profitable suppliers and drawing up a strategy for entering new markets, you spend all day answering customer messages, packing and shipping items, and dealing with paperwork. If you run out of time and energy to build your business strategy, it may be time to entrust someone with simple tasks.
You work weekends and nights and don’t take vacations. Be careful: this rhythm is difficult in the long run. Sooner or later, this can negatively affect your quality of service and your business in general.
Some tasks, such as bookkeeping, require specific knowledge. Sometimes it makes sense to hire someone who already has it, instead of learning it from scratch yourself. This will help keep you from making mistakes, so you will be able to pay attention to more important things.
You can’t ship items and respond to messages on time, customers complain about poor packaging, and your rating starts to decline. Looks like you need help urgently!
It is not necessary to wait for a critical moment and make a decision to expand in a hurry. If you have enough resources, hire and train an assistant ahead of time. When it’s time to scale your business, you won’t have to rush it.

You can register multiple accounts on eBay. This can be useful if you need to differentiate between buyer and seller accounts to manage different types of assortment or assortment on different eBay international sites.
No matter how many accounts you have, it is important to comply with the eBay seller requirements.
Regular violations of marketplace policies will result in restrictions on or blocking of the violator’s account. In addition, it can cause similar consequences for all other accounts.
If any account drops the Seller rating to Below Standard, everyone else will be affected. For example, it may be difficult to raise the limits until you get the job done on the “problem” account.
If you run into problems with any of your accounts, please resolve them in accordance with eBay’s guidelines. This way you will maintain your status as a seller.
Registration of new accounts in order to circumvent sales limits, restrictions or account blocking on eBay is prohibited.
