r/fulfillmentbyamazon: rules, promo tolerance & best time to post
strict — no promo (3/10) · tone: Practical, problem-focused, and direct—people ask for tactical help and share operational pain points without much small talk.
Can you promote in r/fulfillmentbyamazon?
Strict: this community removes promotional content on sight. Contribute value only; pitching here risks removal and a subreddit ban.
This is a hardened, metrics-driven community of active FBA sellers who value operational troubleshooting and tactical advice. They're skeptical of Amazon's policies, frustrated by opaque suppression/deactivation, and focused on profitability metrics (TACOS, PPC efficiency, liquidity). Self-promotion is low-tolerance unless you've built deep credibility; authentic help and battle-tested tips earn respect.
- DO ask specific, detailed operational questions (PPC settings, account issues, listing diagnostics)
- DO share actionable insights backed by your own FBA experience
- DO discuss Amazon policy changes and their financial/operational impact
- DON'T promote tools/services without extensive community credibility first
- DON'T post generic motivational content or hype—focus on concrete problems and solutions
- DON'T vague-post; include metrics, account age, category, and what you've already tried
