The Twenty Minute VC (20VC): Venture Capital | Startup Funding | The Pitch
20VC: Monday.com: Scaling from $6M to $120M in ARR in 3 Years | How Monday Have Built the Best Performance Marketing Engine in SaaS | Going Upmarket, International and Multi-Product; The Biggest Lessons and Mistakes with Eran Zinman

First of all, it was more random than you might think. We just felt that eventually we want to build a huge company. And when we look at the most inspiring SaaS companies in the world today, they were all public. And I think it adds a layer of maturity into the business. I really like the fact that we're a public company because, first of all, public market investors really surprised me.

They are way more sophisticated than what I thought. I thought initially when we went public, I thought that, you know, it's all about the private market, those investors, but public market investors are super sophisticated and smart. And also I think that cadence of quarterly, you know, earning reports really add a great cadence to the company.

You know what? You told me you like stories. So let me tell you a story. I'll tell you about the day of the IPO. It was a long two weeks in New York. It was actually on the edge of the COVID kind of lockdown. So I think it was one of the first IPO that was done in person after the COVID lockdown, actually.

And it was all on Zoom because before COVID, you used to take like a pride jet and meet investors and do like a bus tour. But it was mostly on Zoom. So we were exhausted like a day before the IPO. Here it is, the IPO, the big day. We go to NASDAQ. It's a beautiful ceremony. I remember seeing kind of the... opening of the trade day.

And then a few hours go by, I do a bunch of interviews on TV, newspapers, and it's like 4 or 5 p.m. I look to my left, I see Roy, my co-founder, doing interviews as well. And we're alone, like literally alone. Everybody left. We're alone. I had like this blazer that I never wear, but for the IPO, we wore matching suits.

We took off the blazers and we walked to the hotel, like 25 minutes, like with the white t-shirts. We walked to the hotel. I go to my hotel room. I sit down on the bed and just stare at Netflix for like three hours. That's the IPO day. That's the anticlimax of the IPO.

The day after, when I woke up, I opened my iPhone, opened the Stocks app and added Monday. And that was the most exciting. I felt it throughout my whole body when I saw the Monday ticker. It just felt real.
