Startup Acquisition Stories Podcast With Guilhermo Oenning, Founder of Fider

Aug 22, 2024

How important is your peace of mind to you?


Brazilian founder Guilhermo (Guy) Oenning built a SaaS business called Fider, monetized it, and let it quietly earn him $1,000 a month for three years. He sold when he realized it was taking up too much mental space that he could use to focus on other, more profitable projects.


After a quick onboarding to Acquire.com, Guy started receiving NDAs within hours of listing. He moved to due diligence with a buyer in two weeks and by four weeks had money in the bank to reinvest into his new projects.


He’s now working on two businesses:

  • Aptakupe, a development tool for simplifying communications with Kubernetes.
  • SEOgets analytics for SEO agents. He says it’s like Google Search Console with more functionality.


Listen to Andrew's talk with Andrew post-sale as they discuss:

  • How Guy pushed free users to monetize (or at least give him a backlink)
  • How the indie hacker community changed Guy’s perspective on building startups.
  • Why Guy thinks a passive business can be a drain on your energy.


Guy is just getting started and you can follow his journey through the links below:
