David Hauser is a serial entrepreneur, speaker, and angel investor known for his remarkable track record of success. He bootstrapped Grasshopper to over $30M+ in ARR, eventually selling it to Citrix for $175M. He also founded Chargify, achieving profitability and gaining investment from Mark Cuban, ultimately acquired by Battery Ventures. Additionally, he founded Vanilla, raising $42M from Venrock and Insight Partners. David's journey is a testament to his unyielding dedication and innovation in entrepreneurship. In this episode, we delve into his inner challenges and how he conquered them, persistently utilizing them as a source of motivation, the rationale behind driving a 14-year-old car and never opting for a first-class ticket despite being a millionaire, his upbringing and the freedom granted by his parents, and his core values and how they steer his personal and professional life.
