Not Your Typical Conference
Meet the People Behind the Profile Pics
ECF Live is our annual community-wide summit that brings together the store owners contributing to and helping build eComFuel.
First time attendee? You’re in good hands.
New to ECF Live? We won’t let you get lost in the crowd. Plan on:
- First-timer VIP party to introduce you to other members
- All-inclusive event covering meals, drinks, and evening parties
- Curated small groups for instant connections
- Pre- and post-event activity coordination (if you are interested)
Community, Learning, & Adventure
Break your typical conference mentality.
Connect With Owners Who Actually Get It
Unlike other conferences where you’re surrounded by beginners and vendors, attendees at ECF Live run a 7 or 8-figure store. No need to explain basic concepts or filter through sales pitches – just immediate, high-level conversations with people facing your exact challenges.
Your New Friends Are in the Forums When You Get Home
ECF Live is exclusively for eComFuel members. The relationships you make (or deepen) are waiting for you in the ECF forums immediately when you return. It’s incredible how much you get out of the online community when people recognize you after meeting in person.
Impressive Speakers Outside the Guru Lineup
Forget the usual speakers telling the same stories. At ECF Live, you’ll hear from under-the-radar operators achieving extraordinary results, cross-industry experts bringing fresh perspectives, and breakout sessions where the collective wisdom of the room becomes the content.
Escape Big Tech’s Death Grip On Your Business
Regain control and stop handing over your customer relationships to the tech giants. Discover how fellow store owners are building direct, owned relationships with customers that aren’t subject to platform changes, algorithm shifts, or escalating fees.
Connect The Dots Between Business Success and Life Quality
ECF Live isn’t just about building a bigger business – it’s about building a better life. Learn how fellow owners are structuring their companies to support an intentional life with sessions on health, investing, streamlining your business operations and more.
SO Much Better Than a Normal Hotel Conference
You won’t be trapped in a drab conference room from 9-5. You’ll eat delicious meals (included) on terraces overlooking the ocean. Stretch your legs on adventures with your new eCom friends. You’ll enjoy group discussions in cozy resort corners.

Our attendees say it best.
For anyone hesitating because they’re an introvert and hate the idea of ‘networking’, I want to let you know that ECF Live is not like that at all. Everyone is super-friendly, happy to chat, shoot the breeze and hang out.

This was my first ECF Live. I am blown away by the thoughtfulness put into each speaker and event. You put Fortune 50 companies to shame.

This is not simply a tradeshow, seminar, conference, etc, it truly is a community 4-day hang out. We talk, listen, learn, eat, drink, laugh, and share lots of life lessons that I do not think one can find anywhere else!

This is the most thoughtful + fun business event I’ve been to! The entire team and all the members are amazing, funny, smart, and genuine. Such an intense 3.5 days filled with knowledge, inspiration, connections with kindred spirits, laughs, and adventures!

I’ve been to all the ECF Live events, and they’ve easily paid for themselves. Every year I come home with things that improve my business, not to mention how valuable the personal relationships you’ll build are.
