Short highlight video from SaaStr Annual 2015 (uploaded by Jason M. Lemkin) featuring attendee interviews and comments. Speakers emphasize that markets are highly competitive, requiring strong teams and products; attendees value direct conversations with CEOs (including demos and exit stories) and the community/networking aspect of the conference. The clip ends with an invitation to attend next year.
So you're like the Jimmy Fallen of Saasa.
The markets are growing so much faster, right? You can do so much better, but the bar is higher. You can't have a half baked team, you can't have a half baked product. It's too competitive these days.
The coolest thing for me was sitting down with CEOs of companies and just like asking to open the laptop and show me what they're building.
It's very, very inspiring. You know, you learn a lot and you hear from the CEOs directly.
I've had three great conversations with guys that have sold their companies, had large exits.
It's all about filling the funnel and it's all about filling it fast. Giving me some things to think about in terms of how I grow my team.
That's the whole point of this, to be with other people pushing the boulder up the hill and have people that have already pushed up the hill helping you. So come here. That's the community for you. We'd love to see you next year.
