Amazon Accelerate - thoughts?

Selling on Amazon
1

Hi all,

New here, but not a new seller. We attended Accelerate for the first time last week. Did anyone else attend and if so, what did you think?

Our takeaways:

  • Mix Master Mike - amazing, gotta love the Beastie Boys, a highlight of the week
  • AI announcements - they sound great, but need to see them in action before making any judgements, if all are free and open to all sellers then bring on the technology
  • Seller cafe appointments - wish we could have made more appointments, actually got some issues taken care of
  • Sessions - many were sales pitches or nothing new; could watch all of these from home and get the same info out of them, a lot of focus on supply chain and advertising
  • No real issues like listing hijacking, brand issues, high fees, etc. were addressed (other than when Martha Stewart mentioned the high fees - that was fantastic)

Based on the seller cafe appointments and networking we did, we will probably attend again next year.

Welcome to SAS.

I have never attended and can’t see ever going. I’m glad you found it useful, even if it wasn’t informative.

Welcome to SAS! It is good to hear you got some issues resolved, I’m not sure we have heard that before.

How was the lunch though?

I base my attending/not attending decisions based solely off the food.
