SaaS Capital’s Spring CEO Summit

Last October, SaaS Capital hosted its first-ever get together of portfolio company CEOs. The response was so positive we decided to hold a spring summit to continue the momentum.  Look at all us happy geeks talking SaaS in a windowless conference room for 4 hours.  It was great.  Seriously.

The cross-company collaboration went well past platitudes and included specific actions, tactics, tools, and metrics.  Some of the businesses are much more mature on the sales front, others on the marketing front, and still others on the development or support side.  Everyone brought something to the table, and I think everyone took home a few good ideas for their business.

Sales, marketing, and customer success strategies and tactics dominated the conversations as usual. The next event will be specifically for the sales and marketing leaders of the current and former portfolio companies.

We would like to thank (pictured clockwise from front left of me) Andy Reeher from Reeher, John Zubak from VIIAD Systems, Stefan Midford from Natural Insight, Liz Pearce from LiquidPlanner, Bill Keogh from Advisen, Erik Marsh from DATIS HR Cloud, Brent Maropis from Overgroup, Colin Kingsbury and Andre Lavoie from ClearCompany, and Mitch Bassett from Wiredrive for making the trip to New York.

We would also like to thank our partner, DH Capital, for helping to make SaaS Capital’s Spring CEO Summit happen and for buying the cocktails.
