Hi everyone,

Quick message to let you know about three upcoming events/activities:

- Next Meetup: "How to Buy and Source Product Below Cost to Improve Your Bottom Line" - September 23

- eCom Chicago - Ecommerce Conference - October 17 & 18

It's a weekend of connecting, sharing eCommerce strategies, expert speakers, learning sessions and swapping stories from the trenches. They will also mix in plenty of fun activities and a Q&A with mega-sellers in the industry.

They have a truly impressive set of speakers and it's a great price. I encourage you to check it out: http://ecomchicago.com.

- eBay Customer Panel - September 24

eBay will be holding an event on September 24th at their south campus in San Jose.  The event is part of an ongoing series of workshops geared towards creating a more customer centric culture.  They are looking for sellers/buyers who can attend and participate in a customer panel.  The focus of this particular workshop will be on "Seller Release.”

Those wanting to attend should be prepared to share their open, honest, and direct feedback in regards to the most recent seller release (or changes that we have made to the site that affect sellers) and hopefully previous releases.  Through a constructive, healthy discussion, the sharing of data, and group activities, we hope to start mapping some of your ideas into actions.

If interested, please contact Kip Jensen ([address removed])

Cheers Chris!
