Replays of a recent virtual e-commerce conference, 31 presentations plus 19 Q&A sessions, are being sold with access to a new learning dashboard, at $697 for instant access or $249 for members of a $9 seller club.

The session lineup reads like a snapshot of where seller practice is heading. Several talks focus on Amazon's Rufus assistant: one covers building a 'customer truth machine' with Rufus and ChatGPT to extract buyer objections, comparisons and decision drivers and map them into titles, bullets, images, Q&A, reviews and A+ Content; another breaks down how Rufus works based on a newer patent, why many agentic systems fail, and how to optimize for keyword matching and AI confidence signals together, with custom GPTs that turn research into standard operating procedures.

Lead generation and brand building sessions cover replacing dead PDF lead magnets with a one-page brand app that solves one painful micro-problem and returns a personalized output in under 60 seconds, plus 'vibe coding', describing a tool in plain English and having AI build it for embedding into Shopify. A toolbelt session curates 2026's AI stack across research, listings, creative, video, PPC automation, reviews, inventory and compliance, arguing the workflow chaining the tools matters more than any single one.

On operations, one presentation lays out an AI command center built from an instruction file, rules, skills, hooks, agents and connections to run end-to-end workflows, with Perplexity recommended for research. On advertising, an Amazon Marketing Cloud session shows how to quickly build cart-abandoner, competitor-searcher and repeat-buyer audiences, pair them with promotions, plus a pair of custom SQL queries covering cross-sell and customer reactivation.

Creative and visibility sessions include a main-image SOP that starts with 10 to 12 variations, uses a collage to spot what pops and rebuilds winners, with ProductPinion for fast feedback and Manage Your Experiments for real data; Gemini techniques for hyper-realistic 3D hero shots; a bundle builder that makes websites legible to generative engines; a Nano Banana method for cloning ad-style video with brand placement; and an AI influencer system using n8n and Apify to scrape proven content, route it into production and distribute across accounts, with attention to feeder accounts and the branded-to-nonbranded mix.
