In the hunt to discover the next national franchise in beauty and wellness, Zenoti launches Deep End, a Shark Tank-style competition in conjunction with its Innergize 2024 conference in Las Vegas, October 13-15.


Zenoti recently announced that Innergize 2024, one of the largest summits for salons, spas, and med spas, will include Deep End, a competition along the lines of ABC’s Shark Tank*.
Owners of small and mid-size salons, spas, and med spas will pitch their plans to become a national franchise to a panel of experts featuring John Teza (CEO, Hand & Stone Massage and Facial Spa), Bethenny Frankel (Entrepreneur & Television Personality), Shane Evans (Co-Founder and CEO, Massage Heights) and Paul Hackwell, (Partner TPG capital). The winning pitch will receive ongoing mentoring and coaching, as well as $50,000 invested in the winner.
“Our mission is to help our customers grow,” says Sudheer Koneru, CEO of Zenoti. “While our solution has unique features designed for growth, we wanted to go a step beyond, and actively help build the future success stories in our industry.”
