Cheers to Zenoti’s firsts and the team behind them!

Even with a career spanning over two decades, Zenoti has a way of keeping things exciting for me with a constant stream of 'firsts' in the past two years :)

One of these “firsts” happened this week at ‘The Big DASH’’.  I was thrown a curveball of 'designing, directing, and scripting' a live demo for our major new products :) No pressure, right: 800 folks in the audience, including execs from all over the globe and even the board of directors! 

Our mission? To showcase how these cutting-edge innovations are about to transform the lives of business owners, their workforce, and customers.

The plan? Connect with the huge audience, make them feel the shift, and keep them hooked!"

Our challenge? To keep things real and unfiltered, steering away from my usual strengths in carefully crafted videos and presentations. It was all about showcasing our live products without any scripted stories :)

So this post is about a big shoutout to the stellar team who hustled for weeks to turn this vision into reality! They deserve a round of applause for sure :)

Firstly, the engineering legends - Anurag, Anil, Abhishek, Jagadeesh, and Bala - for rocking those builds, keeping everything stable, and pulling off their behind-the-scenes magic with perfection!"

Hats off to the PM squad - Priyanka, Nikita and Puja - for enduring countless dry-runs with script tweaks, owning the stage and saving their best for the grand finale by dropping a perfect pitch!

I just can’t thank Anand enough for handing this opportunity - most of those 'firsts' I mentioned earlier are due to the doors you’e opened for me/team and your trust means the world to me!

Last but not the least, big thanks to Sudheer for keeping us honest with your bold vision for these products and dropping some incredible inputs to amp up the demo

Been getting tons of compliments from my awesome colleagues, and every single one is really special! But I've got to admit, Shekhar's words hold a special place in my heart. It's pretty awesome to get a thumbs up from someone who's seen the B2B SaaS game from every angle, in India and beyond!")
