Best Conferences for Amazon Sellers

 

So you want to attend a conference, but there are dozens of options and you’re not sure which to choose. Browse our list of the best conferences for Amazon sellers and find the one that’s right for you.

1. SellerCon

Number one on our list is SellerCon, and for good reason. According to JungleScout, more than 15,000 people have attended SellerCon over the course of six years, making it one of the largest ecommerce conferences in the world. 

Much of what draws the crowds is the high-profile speakers. Shark Tank investor Daymond John, for example, will be presenting at this year’s 2020 SellerCon. John’s rags-to-riches story began in 1992, when he founded clothing company FUBU with a $100,000 mortgage loan he took out in his mother’s name and transformed into a multibillion dollar business. John now owns his own marketing firm, The Shark Group, which advises companies on how to promote their brand.  At SellerCon, John will be drawing on his experience as an entrepreneur, investor, and marketer to teach Amazon sellers how to grow their online business.

3. Orange Hat Summit

Orange Hat Summit's logo.

The first thing you’ll notice about Orange Hat Summit is that it’s pricey. The second thing you’ll notice is that it’s not as well attended as some of the other conferences. But this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. In fact, it’s intentional. 

Orange Hat Summit is led by an elite group of Amazon sellers who have a proven track record of generating millions of dollars in sales. The event is for advanced Amazon sellers who seek to dominate the competition through the use of insider secrets and hacks. One such hack they will teach you, for example, is how to legally steal your competitor’s traffic and boost your rankings.

Who says quality conferences have to be expensive? Midwest Ecom Conference is one of our faves precisely because they charge a modest price. 

In fact, we love Midwest Ecom so much that our very own CEO Matt Remuzzi has decided to speak at this year’s conference. Talk about putting your money where your mouth is!

The two-day event, which is normally held in Minneapolis, will be hosted online this year due to social distancing guidelines.

5. IRCE

The issue with some ecommerce conferences is that the topics are too broad and therefore don’t cover issues specifically related to selling on Amazon. But that’s not the case with IRCE.

IRCE delivers curated educational sessions on topics and issues that are directly relevant to Amazon sellers. In the past, IRCE has hosted advanced workshops on Amazon listing strategies, FBA, and whether to operate as a first or third-party seller.

We’ve written about eCommerce Fuel before; they made our list of best Amazon seller forums.  It’s no surprise then that they also run one of the highest-rated conferences for Amazon sellers. 

“Everyone who attends is a vetted member of our private community for 7-figure plus store owners,” a statement from eCommerce Fuel’s website reads. “This ensures you connect with knowledgeable, experienced entrepreneurs. Last year’s average attendee did more than $3 million in annual sales.”

It’s a tight-knit community, so if a large number of attendees is what you’re looking for, this is not the conference for you. If, on the other hand, you’re seeking a more intimate environment, this is an excellent choice.
