@agazdecki @ScottCate It looks like the link was clicked out of an email. Might be a sendgrid issue? I’ll check it out.

[David Morton @viper707]

A $6.5M+ deal just closed on @acquiredotcom!
Two founders walked away with a win that’ll change their lives — and we’re proud to be part of that journey.

[Andrew Gazdecki @agazdecki]

We just closed a $6.5M+ cash deal at @acquiredotcom.

Both founders are now millionaires.

Completely life changing.

This is proof that you don't have to build a billion dollar company to be successful as an entrepreneur.

[David Morton @viper707]

Your business deserves the right buyer—whether it’s a $10k project or a $10M company.
Big day on @acquiredotcom. Let’s make moves. 🚀

[Andrew Gazdecki @agazdecki]

We closed a $4.5M+ cash deal at @acquiredotcom today.

Entirely bootstrapped.

This is generational wealth for founders.

[David Morton @viper707]

When your vibe coding and get shaken back to reality

[David Morton @viper707]

AI is doing incredible things but you are still going to want an M&A advisor for life-changing acquisitions

[acquire.com @acquiredotcom]

Will AI replace M&A Advisors?
We say no, at least not in our lifetime.

AI improves efficiency but can’t replace the nuanced strategy and expertise a human M&A advisor brings to the table.

Here's what VP of Engineering, @viper707 had to say about AI 👇

We're going to be reviewing some of the best and most profitable SaaS startups looking to be acquired on https://t.co/5b2X8anaB6.

I'll be joined by Rainier Nanquil from my team who has over 10+ years helping businesses get acquired. He'll be giving his take on why these are great opportunities. Specifically how you should due diligence them. He also has unique insights into what to really look for when evaluating acquisition (red flags, yellow flags, green flags).

He's one of our best M&A advisors.

I'll be going over how I would 10X growth for these startups. I've been a hired gun CRO that "figured out sales and marketing" for a company from zero to a few million. Bootstrapped my own SaaS which was acquired to $10M in ARR. Also got https://t.co/5b2X8anaB6 off the ground entirely solo.

I'm a sales and marketing nerd.
