Day 2 @ SaaStr Annual 2024

Day 1 came and went in a flash, and the same happened for day 2! Our booth was popping from open to close, filled with founders curious about our Zeni Prize Quest game.

Read on to hear about day 2 quest winners, and where the crew went post-event. 

Winner winner chicken dinner 

1 scratcher, 2, scratcher, 3 scratcher, MORE! As soon as founders realized they could win a Nintendo Switch, record player, or even signed Kurt Cobain “smells like teen spirit” record, they were doing anything they could to get their hands on more scratcher cards. 

Watching everyone post on socials, participate in a mini mic, subscribe to our Pulse newsletter, or even refer someone to our booth in order to get their cards, was truly so fun to watch. 

Here are some of our BIG day 2 winners, congrats crew! 

• Cory Halbardier, Blazeo
• Aileen Wang, Beefree
• Virpal Singh ,DigitalTolk
• Matt Sterbenz, ServiceBell
• Kieran Baker, Allegrow

And the BEST prize was won during Day 2 and it went to Christopher Gannon, at Captivate Talent!!! He’s walking away with a signed Nirvana “Smells like teen spirit” record, INCLUDING Kurt Cobain! Congrats, Christopher! (We'll be sending the real deal in the mail)

Check, check, 1, 2...mini mic recap

It wouldn't be an event without mini mic interviews! Our content manager, Jasmine Black, and PMM, Melissa Garcia, interviewed tons of founders on day 2. Similar to day 1, we learned that most founders are frustrated with managing their finances, whether it be too complicated or in too many different platforms. We also learned that some people don't know popular 90s songs...LOL.

We also had a chance to interview our CEO, Swapnil Shinde, and Avoma's CEO, Aditya Kothadiya, where they shared how they both rely on the other’s product to fuel their success.

What we got up to after hours 

As soon as 7PM hit, we were out and about networking with fellow SaaStr attendees.

Our CEO & Co-Founder, Swapnil Shinde, and CRO, Megan Prince, played some poker at the exclusive CEO & CRO poker night! They walked away with $1800. Nice work, team!

And the rest of the Zeni crew met up with Paddle for their sips and SaaS cocktail party! 

Stay tuned for day 3 recap 

We’ll have more news to share for day 3! Ben Ashworth and Leena Swar will be speaking on the stage, and we’ll have our final winners of the quest game. 

See you all tomorrow!
