In this episode of the SaaS Revolution Show our host Alex Theuma is joined by Ross Andrew Paquette, Chairman and CEO at Maropost, to talk to us about bootstrapping a B2C CRM to $100MM and a $1.7B valuation.

I’ve only recently started to put a direct value on the growth of the business or the success of the business or the profitability of the business on making those right hires. I think a lot of founders do which is say “we could hire a great CFO for a few hundred thousand dollars or we could maybe get someone for 180 and try to make it work” – but it’s never going to work! So you’re going to go through that person, then another person, then another person, and it just depends at what point you realise “Ok, I’m just going to go to the right level” and you see this huge change in terms of the approach. 

Ross shares:

  • Maropost’s founding story
  • The big things that were done to get to $26MM in 28 months (and the plan for how to get to $100MM!)
  • How Maropost got to a $1.7B valuation
  • What he’s most looking forward to at SaaStock 2022

and more!
