The King is Back!
The Amazon Conference Circuit
- Titan Event in Cancun: A high-level mastermind with seven and eight-figure sellers. Kevin notes a big increase in expertise at this year's event.
- Prosper Show (Las Vegas):
- Not just an expo—MDS (Million Dollar Sellers) Inspire Event kicks off before the main show.
- "Every night there are 2-3 major parties surrounding Prosper," Kevin says.
- The growing trend of "satellite events" around conferences, similar to Amazon Accelerate in Seattle.
- Iceland: Billion Dollar Seller Summit (BDSS):
- Kevin’s last BDSS in its current form before shifting to a new event model.
- Over 120 high-level sellers attending, with an average revenue of $7.5 million.
- AI Contest, Market Masters, and Ted Talk-style sessions.
- Streaming available for those who can’t attend in person.
- Post-BDSS event Elevate 360 focuses on non-Amazon marketing, featuring experts like Mr. Beast’s YouTube strategist and Google Ads expert John Moran.
Why Amazon Sellers Need to Expand Their Horizons
- “We stay in our little ecosystem and don't learn from general marketers,” Kevin warns.
- Successful sellers must learn skills from outside Amazon, such as YouTube, funnels, paid ads, and branding.
- Many Amazon educators only teach TikTok or PPC from an Amazon perspective, which limits sellers' potential.
- Kevin's Elevate 360 event brings in non-Amazon experts to teach sellers real marketing strategies.
The Importance of Amazon Events & Networking
- Conferences aren’t just about content, they’re about networking and high-value connections.
- Kevin shares a powerful success story:
- A seller with a multi-million-dollar supplement brand was suspended for 8 months.
- After a hot seat session at Market Masters, Kevin advised them to attend Amazon Accelerate’s Genius Bar in Seattle.
- The seller flew there, met an Amazon rep, and got reinstated in 24 hours.
Seller Sessions Live: A New Approach
- Built from the ground up with full participation from attendees.
- ClickUp documentation for frameworks, prompts, and strategies.
- Custom AI tools to reduce seller decision fatigue.
- “Most conference attendees take notes but struggle with retention and implementation. This new format solves that.”
Kevin King’s Newsletter & Industry Influence
- Kevin’s Amazon newsletter is now the #1 source of industry insights.
- “More people come up to me at events and say they love the newsletter than anything else I do,” he says.
- He also runs four major events per year, including:
- BDSS & Elevate 360 (Iceland)
- Billion Dollar Seller Summit (Virtual)
- Market Masters (High-Level Mastermind)
The Future of AI for Amazon Sellers
- AI tools must go beyond basic ChatGPT prompts—sellers need practical, plug-and-play solutions.
- Kevin and Norm Farrar are launching DragonFish, a new service suite that includes:
- AI-driven branding
- Advertising & content creation
- Managed services for Amazon & Shopify sellers
Final Thoughts
- Attending the right events is crucial—it’s not just about learning but also making connections that can change your business.
- Amazon sellers must think bigger—general marketing skills will separate average sellers from great ones.
- Kevin and Danny both challenge sellers to step outside their comfort zones and level up.
