The reality

Marketplace margins are shrinking. Your brand.com is the answer — if you know how to run it.

Most ecommerce events give you inspiration. This one gives you an implementation plan you can execute on Monday.
01

Marketplace commissions keep climbing

Shopee and Lazada take 15–30% of every sale. You're building traffic for their platform, not yours. The brands winning right now are the ones shifting volume to their own stores.
02

Traffic is expensive. Wasted traffic is unforgivable.

You're paying RM1-3 per click. If your site converts at 1% instead of 3%, you're burning two-thirds of your ad spend. Small CRO wins compound into massive revenue differences.
03

Your best customers aren't coming back

Acquiring a new customer costs 5–7x more than retaining one. Yet most Malaysian brands have no email flows, no loyalty program, no post-purchase strategy. That's money left on the table every single day.
Who this is for

Designed for Decision makers.

This isn't a conference for people who "do digital." It's for the ones who own the P&L.

If you're the person who checks Shopify analytics before coffee, who argues about abandoned cart copy, who knows exactly what your CAC was last month — this room was built for you.We keep it small on purpose. 50 brands maximum. Because the person sitting next to you matters just as much as the person on stage.
  • Founders who are hands-on with ecommerce
  • Heads of Ecommerce / Online Sales
  • Heads of Commercial / Revenue
  • Marketing leads responsible for brand.com
  • IT / Digital leads managing the tech stack
What you'll walk away with

Not inspiration. Implementation.

Every session is designed to give you something you can deploy the week you get back.
