ChannelAdvisor Catalyst
ChannelAdvisor have released more detail of the Catalyst Conference scheduled for 21st – 22nd April and it’s shaping up to be the best conference so far. If you want to know the shape of ecommerce in the UK this is the one conference of the year that you should be planning to attend.

Over the last year eBay has ceased to be the only marketplace where sellers are having major wins. Amazon is increasingly important for many sellers and they’ll be presenting at Catalyst. Media sellers should make this a must attend event, Play.com are also on the speaking agenda. (For anyone that doesn’t already know Play.com have opened up their platform for third party sellers.) If you’re selling media this is your opportunity to meet the senior managers from Play.

Talking of meeting, one of the most beneficial aspects of Catayst has always been the chance to network and this year is no exception. On the evening of the 21st ChannelAdvisor are hosting a Thames Dinner Cruise for all conference attendees. If you want to mix with Amazon, Play.com, Google, PayPal, Scot Wingo, CEO of ChannelAdvisor and of course other attendees and the ChannelAdvisor team this is the one time in 2008 that they’ll all be available.

Costs for attending are £179.00 with an early booking price of £129.00 if you book before the end of February. However for TameBay readers there’s a special rate of just £79.00 until the end of January. To qualify you just need to pay by PayPal and enter the discount code “SPECRATE” when prompted.

If you’re serious about growing your business on eBay, on other marketplaces and your own website this is the best £79.00 you’ll invest in 2008. If you’re wondering if this is the right conference for you, or if your business is big enough to benefit, the answer is a resounding “Yes”. The conference is to bring online sellers together with senior management from the Marketplace and Payments businesses we trade on. If you thought eBay University was good you’ll love Catalyst!
