Frequently Asked Questions

How does management work?

We assist with the application process, Amazon store creation, and onboarding. Once the store is live, our fulfillment partners handle product sourcing, product research, customer inquiries, returns, shipping coordination, and the day-to-day operations of the store.

What is the expected timeline for the business to start generating sales?

Our standard timeline for preparing a store to become fully operational is usually around 6 months. However, it’s important to note that this timeframe only accounts for the steps needed to get the store ready for inventory purchase, such as ungating, sourcing inventory, building supplier relationships, and other related tasks. It may or may not include the time required to generate revenue as that time varies and can range from 6-12 months.

What is the frequency of payments?

Amazon Marketplace: Payments for sales made on Amazon Marketplace are typically disbursed every 14 days, although there may be some variations based on the seller’s location and payment method. It’s important to note that these payout time frames are subject to change and may differ based on the specifics of your account.

What brands do you sell?

Brand access varies by fulfillment partner, supplier relationships, and what each individual store is ungated for (or eligible to be ungated for). Our vendors primarily focus on household goods, tools, and general merchandise. Vendors continuously expand their catalogs, and a single category may include hundreds of different brands.

Do I own the ecommerce storefront?

Yes. Clients retain 100% ownership of their ecommerce storefront. If you ever decide to discontinue services, the store is yours to keep. We simply ask that we and the fulfillment partners be allowed to complete any in-progress operations so the store can be properly cleared out, with inventory listings either deactivated or left active if you choose to continue operating independently.

Is customer service handled by Cashflow Creators?

Our clients’ stores are ran as Amazon FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon). This is a service offered by Amazon that allows sellers to store their inventory in Amazon’s fulfillment centers. With FBA, Amazon takes care of the storage, packing, and shipping of the seller’s products to their customers.

Here’s how it works:

  • A seller sends their products to Amazon’s fulfillment centers.
  • Amazon stores the products in their warehouses.
  • When a customer places an order for the seller’s product, Amazon picks, packs, and ships the product to the customer on behalf of the seller.
  • Amazon also handles customer service and returns for the seller’s products.
What makes Cashflow Creators different from other providers?

Our team genuinely cares about the client’s long-term success. We are not here simply to sell you on spending money. Even if we could make $10,000 upfront, it’s not worth it to us if it leads to $100,000 worth of problems down the road.

We partner with clients who understand calculated risk, recognize that business is business, and know that effort and capital directly impact results. We are transparent—we will share the good, the bad, and the ugly—because we want our clients to be educated and fully informed about the investment they’re making.

Anyone can paint a pretty picture; not everyone helps you understand the bigger picture. That’s what we focus on. Whether you choose to be hands-off or hands-on, we support both approaches and provide education to clients who are willing to learn.

Is it possible to use a credit card to expand the business?

We highly recommend that the credit cards and payment methods match the entity details or owner’s name. The type of credit card and the unique perks offered via various providers is to the discretion of the client. The best performing cards we have seen are AMEX.

Is funding or financing available through your services?

We work with 3rd party funding options we can refer you to if you have a good credit score. They will take a  look at your current financial situation and tell you exactly how much funding you qualify for.

What opportunities are available for sellers on Amazon to grow their business?
  • Selling in multiple marketplaces: Amazon operates in several countries and regions, which enables sellers to reach new audiences and tap into different markets.

 

  • Utilizing Amazon’s advertising tools: Amazon provides various advertising options, such as Sponsored Products and Sponsored Brands, which can help sellers increase their visibility and drive more sales.
  • Participating in Amazon’s subscription-based programs: Amazon offers several subscription-based programs, such as Amazon Prime and Subscribe & Save, which can help sellers build customer loyalty and encourage repeat purchases.

 

  • Leveraging Amazon’s fulfillment network: Sellers can use Amazon’s fulfillment network, known as Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA), to store and ship their products. This can help sellers reach more customers with faster shipping times and increase their chances of winning the Buy Box.

Establishing and promoting their own brands: Amazon provides tools and programs that allow sellers to create and promote their own brands on the platform, such as Amazon Storefronts and Amazon Brand Registry. This can help sellers differentiate themselves from competitors and build customer loyalty.

What is the level of experience of you and your team?
  • Together, our team has accumulated more than 50 years of experience
What are the types of clients that you collaborate with?
  • The best type of clients are those who understand that this is a hands-off investment. Our team is more successful when working with clients who recognize that this business model is slow and steady, and not a ‘get rich quick’ scheme. Scaling up the business takes time and is dependent on the platform we’re using. Our team adjusts and shifts strategies daily to support our partnership with our clients. Therefore, timelines can vary and be fluid, so understanding this aspect is key to our mutual success. Our clients are people who have capital but don’t have all the time to build, grow and manage their own Amazon store, this is why we take some of the weight off of your shoulders and help you run it.
What mindset should I have for this type of service?

Like any business, there are inherent risks. What you get out of it is directly tied to what you put into it. A realistic, long-term mindset is key.

What are the requirements for success?

Responsiveness and commitment are essential. Capital is the biggest factor in success, as you’ll need sufficient funds to purchase inventory and reinvest profits to compound growth.

This business is not linear—performance will fluctuate, much like a heartbeat or the stock market. However, returns historically exceed what you would earn in high-yield savings accounts and are often less volatile than speculative stock investments.

What risks are involved with the storefront?

The primary risk is operating on a third-party platform. Amazon can make unilateral decisions regarding its marketplace. Compliance is critical, including secure account access from a consistent IP address and device that has not been used for other ecommerce accounts.

How do you handle suspensions?

First the cause of the suspension is identified and then we determine what Amazon is requesting. The necessary documentation is then gathered to pursue reinstatement. Appeals are drafted and submitted on your behalf.

If Amazon requires identity verification, you will need to attend the call, as we cannot represent you directly. However, the team will fully prepare you. This is why education and awareness of your business are so important—you need to be able to confidently speak to your store if required.

Do you offer any guarantees?

We offer packages with ROI guarantees during periods of active selling within a defined timeframe. If store operations are paused for any reason—personal, professional, or due to suspension—the guarantee is also paused until operations resume. ROI cannot be generated if the store is not actively operating and/or if you are not purchasing enough inventory to be able to make enough profit to generate your initial ROI.
