Bootstrapping to $10M ARR and Then Exiting Through Private Equity

In this episode of the SaaS Revolution Show our host Alex Theuma is joined by Lloyed Lobo, co-founder at Boast AI, who shares how he bootstrapped to $10M ARR and then exited through private equity. "I know it’s an overused term “your network is your net worth”, but trust me, it’s the best way to engineer privilege. You may not have a network or you may not have influence, but if you create influence - just the compound interest on creating that influence - giving, giving, helping, bringing people together over time is you’re going to have everything you want." Lloyed shares: ⚡️ His childhood in Kuwait and the positive impact the community had on him ⚡️ Why risk and companionship are part of his DNA ⚡️ Getting to eight figures in revenue with no marketing spend ⚡️ Why ignoring the influence of luck is a mistake ⚡️ The impact financial freedom had on his mental health and more! --- Check out the other ways SaaStock is serving SaaS founders - SaaStock Dublin 2023: The largest concentration of SaaS decision makers in one place for three days of networking, connecting, and learning all things SaaS (https://www.saastock.com/saastock-2023/) - SaaStock Founder Membership: A private members group of B2B SaaS founders between $100K - $10M ARR who are committed to growth and helping others (https://www.saastock.com/founder-membership/) - SaaStock Local: Monthly meet-ups in cities all around the world, bringing together SaaS enthusiasts and experts to discuss the most pressing topics in SaaS (https://local.saastock.com/home)       Check out the other ways SaaStock is helping SaaS founders move their business forward:  🇮🇪 SaaStock Europe: 14-15 October 2025 | Dublin, Ireland Book you tickets: https://saastock-europe.com/tickets/ 🇺🇸 SaaStock USA 2025: April 2026 | Austin, Texas Join the waitlist: https://saastock-usa.com/ 🤝 SaaStock Founder Membership: A private members group of B2B SaaS founders between $100K - $10M ARR who are committed to growth and helping others (https://www.saastock.com/founder-membership/) 🌎 SaaStock Local: Monthly meet-ups in cities all around the world, bringing together SaaS enthusiasts and experts to discuss the most pressing topics in SaaS (https://local.saastock.com/home)
