Speedrun Fireside
Performance Marketing with Saajan Jain, GrowthPep
Saajan Jain, Founder at Growthpep
Jan 16, 2026
2 Hours
Virtual Event | Google Meet
An open, candid conversation with
Saajan Jain
Founder at GrowthPep
Why we’re excited:
Saajan Jain has built GrowthPep quietly and deliberately — without chasing hype or shortcuts.
Over the last few years, he’s worked closely with 50+ D2C brands, managing multi-crore ad spends while staying deeply involved in how brands think about positioning, funnels, and customer behavior — not just performance metrics.
What makes this conversation valuable isn’t just what worked, but what didn’t. The trade-offs, the mistakes, and the decisions that only become obvious once you’re in the arena.
If you’re building in D2C or eCommerce and want a grounded view on growth, brand, and execution — this will be a practical, no-nonsense conversation.
Speedrun Fireside is a monthly fireside chat + live AMA with builders, operators, and creators. We keep it honest, practical, and founder-first — the goal is to leave you with sharper mental models and clearer next steps.
This isn’t a keynote. It’s a real conversation about the messy parts: trade-offs, mistakes, pivots, and what they’d do differently if they started today.
