If youโre a new Amazon wholesale seller, youโve probably faced this:
You find a great brand
You contact them with a well-written email
And they donโt approve you โ especially if youโre a new seller.

Most brands are protective of their reputation on Amazon.
They prefer working with experienced sellers with a strong resale history.
If you have little to no sales history, they donโt see the value in approving you (yet).

Start with Distributors โ Not Direct Brands
For new sellers, distributors are the best starting point. Why?
They often carry multiple brands
They donโt require big resale history
Many allow smaller opening orders
You can get legit invoices for Amazon ungating

Build relationships with authorized wholesale distributors
Order small, build your metrics
Once you have sales history & solid account health โ approach brands again!
