Sponsored Lunch Giveaway — #005

Today’s the day! The moment we’ve all been waiting for — announcing the winner of our 5th lunch giveaway, proudly sponsored by Woody Hayday, Founder of profitswarm.ai and creator of 56+ software projects, including the Zero BS CRM (now Jetpack CRM).

Woody is sponsoring a lunch for a WordPress freelancer as part of our 5th giveaway.

Woody is a multi-exit founder who has been writing software and selling it for over 15 years. Tech was his first love; business came shortly after.

He’s an indie hacker through and through – someone who thrives on inventing systems, hybridizing business models, and building cool things.

With over $1.5 million in WordPress and software product sales, Woody brings deep experience as a solo builder, founder, and lead engineer. He’s led more than five successful joint ventures and even exited to Automattic.

A maker and hacker at heart, Woody’s projects reflect his alternative, hands-on approach to entrepreneurship. His newsletter is a window into that world – not a polished corporate AI update, but a raw, practical guide to building an all-AI business from the ground up.


Now, we did not want this to be a messy competition with complicated rules. No gimmicks, no spammy likes or shares. Just pure fairness. We conducted a simple and clean poll on our WhatsApp group, which included over 190 freelancers, as well as on LinkedIn. 21 combined votes later, here we are!

Our giveaway isn’t just about free lunch — it’s about connection, warmth, and community. Think of it like sharing a delicious homemade meal with your closest WordPress friends after a long day. That’s the spirit we’ve built. And to keep it genuine and welcoming as more people join, we’ve invited WordPress leaders to be our honorary guests.

We’ve already shared four tasty lunches, and today, our 5th winner gets the spotlight! Scroll down to see the latest three snapshots from earlier — real people, real meals, real joy.

We are honored to have Tobias Bäthge, the creator of TablePress, joining us today as our 5th honorary guest. Today, he has graciously accepted our invitation to choose the winner. Thank you, Tobias, for your trust and for adding your valued presence to this moment.

To make the selection process more engaging and personal, we’re displaying each participant’s photo, name, title, and a relevant link. This allows our guest judge to choose a winner based on a face and role, like “SEO Specialist”—rather than picking a number at random.

Also, who knows? If any guest finds someone interesting, this might lead to a future hiring opportunity. We’re building this on trust, connection, and good vibes.

The list of hopeful participants is ready and waiting for our guest’s decision.
