“We're buying SaaS companies under that label. So Growth Stack is the whole co and we're tucking in B2B SaaS.”
“So seven years ago, I started buying online businesses. It was not specifically SaaS in the beginning. I was building micro portfolios for well diversified investors that were, you know, really unaware that there was even a secondary market for online businesses.”
“What I'm seeing in the SaaS space is that founders tend to be tech savvy, but not business savvy. And that's not a slight against any founders. It's just the way founders in this space are, right?”
