How often should you check in with interested buyers?

As often as possible.

The journey to selling your business doesn't stop after listing on acquire.com. Like gaining customers, you must market your startup to gain a buyer to close your deal.

Full replay coming soon.

Your startup needs an unfair advantage in your market and it doesn't always have to be just product.

It can be brand, design, marketing, distribution, support, team, dark mode, culture, pricing, customer experience.

The list is endless.

99% of startups fail. Just a fact.

If you have the courage to bet on yourself to be in the 1% of successful startups you deserve respect regardless of the outcome.

Please keep going and keep building.

We just hosted a webinar titled 'Rapid Road to Sale' because we're all about that action.

Six-figure acquisitions, look at those first publish dates.

Being CEO of a startup is a tough and lonely job so please surround yourself with other founders, mentors, and most importantly a team that believes.

I’ve made a ton of startup mistakes.

I’ve hired people that didn’t work out.

I’ve had marketing campaigns flop.

I’ve done a live webinar with no audio.

I’ve made features no one wanted.

I’ve burned myself out many times.

Mistakes and failure is how you learn.

We curate startup listings to ensure the best experience for you and our buyers but there may be instances where your startup isn't the right fit, and listing elsewhere might be more suitable.

So, how can you sidestep the startup listing rejection email? Which startups garner…

Your job as CEO of a startup is to work 'in the business' first to nail it then delegate almost everything so you can work 'on the business' to scale it.
