The game changed. And you felt it.
You've been reading the BDSN newsletter. You've seen me banging the drum about AI, about omnichannel, about discovery shifting off Amazon, about ChatGPT shopping, about AEO, about creators becoming the new sales force.
You know the shift is real. You're not asleep at the wheel.
But there's a difference between knowing the ground is moving and having the exact playbook for what to do about it.
And right now, the sellers who are pulling ahead aren't just aware. They have the playbooks. They have the connections.
They have the people around them who are figuring it out in real time.
That's what I built Ecom Mastery AI featuring BDSS to be.
April 8-12. Nashville. 500+ sellers. 41 speakers I hand-picked. Four days of the most concentrated, tactical, no-BS e-commerce content and networking I've ever put together.
You know my track record. BDSS was voted a Top 3 e-commerce event. I've been doing this for 30+ years and trained 220,000+ sellers.
I'm telling you straight: this is the best lineup, the best format, and the best version of this event I've ever produced. Not close.
Here's what I mean:
> 41 speakers, most still in the trenches. Not retired coaches living off 2019 glory. Operators who are selling right now, this month. The bar to get on this stage has never been higher.
> The Oracle Bar. Think Apple Genius Bar but for your e-commerce business. Bring your laptop, show your problem, get it solved on the spot by someone who's dealt with it before.
> Creators Meet Sellers. Pre-vetted TikTok creators, many doing millions in GMV. You sit across the table. You make the relationship. No cold DMs. No guessing.
> 25+ roundtables. Small groups with speakers and Dream 100 members. Pick who you want to learn from. Sit down. Get specific answers, not generic Q&A.
> Two stages running. Main stage for the full audience. BDSS stage for Platinum and Diamond holders with more advanced, more tactical content. Pick your track based on where you are.
You've read about these people. Now sit across from them:
Adley Kinsman - 1 BILLION organic views per month. She does this for Coca-Cola. Her company Ish is the real deal.
Tiffany Ivanovsky - $21M/year on TikTok Shop. She's going to show you how.
Matt Clark - co-founded Amazing. Enough said.
Dan Ashburn - you know what Dan's like when he gets going. Now imagine five days of proximity.
Bradley Sutton - product selection and ranking. You already know.
Dan Kurtz - AEO secrets from the trenches. This is the stuff I keep writing about and Dan's living it.
Jeffrey Anderson - the PPC GOAT
Steve Simonson - his AI tools session is going to make you rethink what one person can actually accomplish
Brett Curry - Google & YouTube, best there is
Makenna Riley - Forbes Riley's daughter, millionaire by 17, and she's going to show you how entrepreneurship works at any age
Plus 31 more. Shopify scaling, UGC systems, supply chain, brand protection, product selection, exit strategy, Rufus and Cosmo optimization, outside traffic, listing conversion, advanced PPC, and creator strategies.
I've written about every one of these topics in the newsletter. Now the people who are actually doing it are on stage. And more importantly, they're at the bar, at lunch, and at the roundtables where you can actually talk to them.
Three levels:
GOLD - $497
For newer sellers or those under $500K. Main stage, AI Space Cowboy Welcome Party, Dream 100 party, speaker roundtables, exhibitor market, slide PDFs. April 8-11. Fewer than 164 spots left.
PLATINUM - $1,497
For sellers at $500K-$3M. Everything in Gold plus BDSS stage access, Creators Meet Sellers matchmaking, networking lunches, video replays, AI session summaries. April 8-12. Fewer than 92 spots left.
DIAMOND - $2,997
For operators at $3M-$800M. Everything in Gold & Platinum plus Diamond VIP Lounge, Diamond Dinner with speakers & Dream 100, additional BDSS afternoon sessions, advanced mastermind, hack contest, and the full Diamond Adventure Day on April 12.
The median Diamond attendee does $7.5M/year. This room is operators only. April 8-13. Fewer than 36 spots left.
Grand Hyatt Nashville. On Broadway. Walking distance from everything. Special attendee room rate when you register. Stay at the hotel. That's where everything happens after hours.
And the after hours part? That's the real event.
You've heard me say it before. The best stuff at my events doesn't happen on stage.
It happens when you belly up to the bar next to someone doing $20M and they tell you exactly what's working for them right now. It happens at the networking lunch when you sit next to someone who solves your biggest bottleneck in a ten-minute conversation.
It happens at the Cowboy Meets AI party, the Dream 100 rooftop party, the Marketing Misfits cigar night at a Nashville speakeasy.
I just went to a wedding where 20 of 30 people on the bride's side were from this community. That's what these events build.
You've been following along. You know the shift is real. You know AI is changing everything. You know omnichannel isn't optional anymore.
The question isn't whether you need this. The question is whether you're going to keep reading about it or come be in the room where it's happening.
April 8-12. Nashville.
Secure your spot now.
Kevin King
P.S.
Diamond has fewer than 36 spots. Platinum fewer than 92. Gold fewer than 164. This is tracking to sell out. If you've been to one of my events before, you know the deal. If you haven't, this is the one.
