MicroConf Growth 2017

Rob does a deep-dive into the decision-making framework he used during the acquisition of Drip. He reflects on his journey from 2005 through 2017, looking back at his changing motivation as he stair-stepped his way from tiny early businesses like a beach towel e-commerce site, to a seven-figure SaaS app. And he provides in-depth information about what a life-changing acquisition looks like from the inside.
