SuiteWorld Day 0 Recap
I woke up at 430AM to catch my flight from Oakland to Vegas. Managed to sleep the whole way (huge W) and saw this ballsy ad. In case you don’t know, Rillet is a direct NetSuite competitor.
From there, I checked in to my hotel and caught up on some Cadbury product planning work. Our team of engineers are building hard, and I didn’t want my absence at SuiteWorld to slow them down.
From there, I went back to the airport to check in on my limo. Yeah that’s right, limo. I rented one to shuttle random attendees from the airport to SuiteWorld. I was nervous at first, but the other sign holders accepted me into their tribe and we shot the breeze about life as a sign holder.
We did two roundtrips total, and I met the fantastic teams at Arizona Autism United & Trivium Life Services (shout out to Aimee and Paula!). We talked about their experience dealing with NetSuite consultants, and ways we could improve that.
I then went into Caesars Forum, got my badge, and headed back to my hotel to catch up on Cadbury stuff. I went back to the Forum for the welcome reception, which was OK, if a little crowded.
Last year, I was a nobody with no connections. This year, the group chat I created has over 25 people in it. I have over ~15 meetings lined up for this week, all inbound, with plenty more outbound I’m working to schedule.
Progress.
