What does it take to create, scale and sell a tech company? Teri Yu, Founder of Vibely, is here and gets real about what the journey really looks like scaling a profitable company, how she raised $2 million from investors like the founders of YouTube and Meetup.com, and when she knew it was time to go the route of selling her business vs continuing to scale to the next level. Teri ended up selling her business to Kajabi, which is the platform that we run our entire business on. This was such a cool conversation from someone who has been there in the trenches of entrepreneurship and I know you will gain so many takeaways from how to build grit as an entrepreneur, how we need to balance the needs of our businesses as Founders, and how to determine whether scaling or selling will be the best outcome for you.
