Las Vegas, August 25-27: the longest-running Amazon seller conference gets a China QC crew
Some announcements write themselves. This one is easy: CloudSpects is now a sponsor of The Proven Conference 2026, and we couldn't be happier to be part of it. 🎉
The Proven Conference is the longest-running Amazon seller event in the world — 14 editions strong, founded by Jim Cockrum. This year it lands in Las Vegas from August 25-27, and it's running right inside ASD Market Week: over 2,700 vendors, more than 1 million product lines across 19 categories, and 40,000+ attendees including thousands of e-commerce builders and Amazon sellers.
That's a lot of products changing hands. And where products move, quality control matters.
Why an inspection company sponsors a seller conference
Honest answer: because that's exactly where the conversations we love happen.
At CloudSpects, we run 2,000+ inspections a year across factories in China. The sellers we meet at events like this are the ones asking the right questions — about landed cost, about AQL 2.5 sample sizes, about FNSKU labels that fail inbound, about the difference between a factory's "QC photos" and an independent pre-shipment inspection.
We don't sell magic. We sell certainty: from $169 per man-day, a CloudSpects inspector goes to your factory, checks your goods against your PO and AQL standards, and sends you a structured photo report — usually within 24 hours. You decide go, rework, or kill before your container leaves China.
What you'll find at the conference
If you're going, here's a taste of what's under one roof:
| What | Details |
|---|---|
| Scale | 2,700+ vendors · 1M+ product lines · 19 categories · 40,000+ attendees |
| Training | Dozens of breakout sessions for every level — Amazon reselling, wholesale, Walmart, KDP, TikTok, brand building |
| Networking | Small-group sessions with successful sellers, mastermind formation, 100s of brands on site that need help on Amazon |
| Deals | Wholesalers taking orders on the spot and approving sellers |
| Pre-event | Step-by-step "open laptop" workshop on Aug 24 for early registrants |
And yes — dozens of wholesalers taking orders on the spot means dozens of POs heading to factories. That's exactly when pre-shipment inspection earns its keep.
While you're at it: our free Amazon Classroom
Here's something we're almost as excited about as Vegas — our free Amazon Classroom hub. We built it because the sellers who understand their numbers are the ones who never get burned at the factory gate. And everything in it is free, no login required.
Start with the Tools — live calculators for FBA profit, landed cost, fees and ACoS/TACOS. Punch in a product you're already selling and see your real margin before you commit to another PO.
Then work through the six Lesson modules, each one a slide-style page you can follow in 15-20 minutes:
| Module | What you learn |
|---|---|
| 1 · China sourcing & unit economics | EXW → landed cost → FBA unit profit, before the first PO |
| 2 · Amazon fees & size tiers | Measure finished pack; run the FBA fee estimator |
| 3 · Quality control before payment | AQL 2.5 sampling, FBA labeling & carton checks |
| 4 · Ads efficiency (ACoS / TACOS) | Campaign ACoS vs store TACOS on real margin |
| 5 · Listing, prep & inbound risk | Inbound rejects that waste a "good" QC result |
| 6 · Capstone demo | One SKU end-to-end: go / rework / kill |
Every module links to its calculator, so you run real numbers on your own product while you learn. When you're done, screenshot the Tips page — eight one-liners like "ACoS without TACOS lies" and "One bad batch beats one review" — and follow the News page for weekly seller policy updates.
Think of it as the homework for the conference: learn the math in the classroom, then come shake hands in Las Vegas and put it to work. 📊
