Individual accounts do not get the Buy Box )Add to cart button)
Individual account pay an extra $1 fee per sold item, pro accounts pay a flat fee of $40/month
Your options:
1. Amazon seller university, every single video. 1-2 hours per week in the forum, reading.
2. Account permanently suspended.
Funds in account confiscated but fees charged for months after.
FBA products will be destroyed.

This part raises alarm flags. What guy? Why is anyone offering you this advice?

"I have a guy asking me to change my account to professional."
Who is asking you to do that? If it's some 'service' that found you they most likely just want to milk some money from you and your bank account.
@Seller_4zBzdtgCyS9EI is giving you the correct info.
Unless you are selling at least 40 items per month it is actually more expensive to be on the Pro plan.
The BIG advantage is the buy box (FEATURED OFFER) but people generally don't get that for several months AND it's not automatic that you do.
I have hundreds of ASINs that simply do NOT even have one since Amazon is not selling on those items. All those show is the tab that says "No featured offers available" and "See All Buying Options".

Being in control of shipping charges (or somewhat in control) is another big advantage.
