Comedy roast of pitches. I'm in. Something keeping Austin weird.

Me and my cofounder have a startup but we want to pitch to investors or at least be on their radar. How do we go about it?

Is there anyone interested in testing out a beta application for Zapier for my startup?
I need a couple beta testers to complete a successful zap before they will let me submit for their marketplace.

Join industry leaders, innovators, and curious minds for an insightful look at the current landscape of technology.

This program will spotlight Austin’s emerging leadership in deep tech, exploring innovations that extend beyond traditional software and SaaS into fields like neurotechnology, photonics, space technology, and advanced hardware.

Workplaces in the AI Era

How AI is changing the workplace as we know it - management practices, operating models, value realization, KPIs

Which jobs can we expect AI to gobble up and which jobs can we expect AI to create? 

Panel:

Ronnie Sheth - CEO Senen Group

Shay Sabhikhi - CEO ArcOne

James Beechan - CEO ALTR

It feels like there aren't any people who are actually at startups anymore... it seems to just be people that have left a startup or don't have a startup or sold a startup. Anyone actually just starting a startup?

Looking for a Business Development Partner with Experience in Home Service Software

I'm an Industrial Engineer and the founder of two SaaS applications built for home service businesses.

Over the past several years, I've developed YourTimeIn (employee time tracking and workforce management) and SkedZone (scheduling, availability, and resource planning). Both products are live, actively maintained, and already used by paying customers.

I'm beginning to realize that what I enjoy most is building products and working directly with customers to improve their business processes. Sales and business development, however, are a different skill set, and I'm hoping to connect with someone who genuinely enjoys that side of the business.

I'm especially interested in talking with someone who has experience selling or implementing software such as ServiceTitan, FieldEdge, Housecall Pro, Jobber, or similar platforms for HVAC, plumbing, electrical, or other field service companies. If you've worked with businesses like these, I'd enjoy hearing about your experience.

I'm not looking to sell my company or give up ownership of the products. Instead, I'm interested in exploring a long-term partnership based on recurring monthly revenue from customers we bring on together. I believe that's a healthier model than a one-time commission because it aligns both of us toward helping customers stay successful over the long term.

There may or may not be a fit, and that's perfectly okay. If the description above sounds interesting, I'd be happy to exchange ideas, answer questions, and see where the conversation leads.

Thanks for reading.
