How and Why This $30M ARR SaaS Bought Out Its Investors

In this episode of the SaaS Revolution Show our host Alex Theuma is
joined by Frederico Hohagen, Co-founder & CEO at Maplink, who
shares why and how this $30M ARR SaaS bought out its investors.
"Every contract is made for failure, not success. When you're
signing a contract, it's because you have to work on everything
that can go wrong, not go right. Because if everything's going
right, why would you be signing?" Fred shares: ️Maplink’s pivotal
growth moment ️Their journey from 14 years as an independent
bootstrapped company to raising VC ️3 years with $15 million from
Movile - the benefits and downsides ️The importance of two-way due
diligence between your company and investors ️From Brazil to
Mexico, Chile, Argentina and more: how international expansion
moved the needle for Maplink ️Living life at your own pace and
valuing the things that are truly important and more!
