Four-day Austin think tank puts eight experts on each seller's business

2025-01-06

A think tank running February 20 to 24 in Austin, Texas is selling a simple premise: 72 hours with the right experts can redirect an Amazon business, whether it is just starting out or selling $150 million a year.

The core format is a 135-minute personalized hot seat in which six to eight handpicked experts focus on one seller's challenges, producing tailored strategies rather than generic presentations. Participants also mix with a network of sellers doing $10 million to $300 million annually over meals and informal sessions across the mansion venue.

Past attendees report implementing strategies before leaving the property, with one saying the last 30 minutes of their session changed the company's direction and another describing a roadmap to five-times growth. Alumni emphasize that outside experts repeatedly surface blind spots, from missed opportunities to outright mistakes, that owners could not see themselves.

The package includes accommodations at the mansion or nearby, chef-prepared meals, activities like pickleball and massages, and a private AI transcript of each session. Twelve hot seats exist in total with three rooms remaining; cheaper audience tickets cover observation and networking without a personal hot seat.
