About Talk Commerce

A creative outlet that became the commerce community's go-to media network.

How It Started

Talk Commerce started after Brent Peterson sold Wagento, the Magento agency he built and ran as President. After years of leading teams, running projects, and being in the thick of the e-commerce ecosystem, he needed a creative outlet to stay sane.

What he discovered was bigger than a side project. Commerce leaders need a way to keep up with industry trends, hear what's working from peers, and stay connected to the community between events. Talk Commerce became that bridge. What started as a podcast became a complement to Brent's work as President of Wagento and eWay Corp, and eventually grew into something much larger.

Over 410 episodes later, Talk Commerce is a full commerce media network. Podcast interviews, conference video production, live event coverage, original research, and community activations. The creative outlet became the platform.

Community Legacy

The Big Dam Run

From 2012 to 2019, Brent organized the Big Dam Run at Magento Imagine in Las Vegas. What started as a small group jog became a signature community event, peaking at over 300 runners from the commerce community.

The route went past the Hoover Dam. The start time was 5am. Attendees still talk about it years later. Not the keynotes, not the booth demos. The run.

That same energy for community drives everything Talk Commerce does. Pre-conference running groups, networking activations, and moments that people remember long after the show floor closes.
