Kjael Skaalerud is the Founder and President of Skaling Ventures, a Private Equity firm acquiring and operating micro-SaaS businesses. Kjael recently made their first acquisition via Acquire.com and is taking a very cool #buildinpublic approach by sharing in-depth details around building their portfolio starting with this first one. Kjael jumped on the podcast with Andrew and drops a ton of knowledge around: ► How their venture utilizes a punitive scorecard system to evaluate certain aspects of the acquisition target - ideal valuation multiples, retention rates, growth rates, ideal technical debt range, etc. ► The three pillars of SaaS data sitting in system of records that matter the most - "books, customers, employees". ► What a top-notch seller looks like from how they talk about the business to how clean they've kept their data. This episode is worth a watch for any buyer looking to acquire their first business and a seller who wants to put their best foot forward against buyers who know what they're doing. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Follow the Guest: Kjael Skaalerud - ► https://www.linkedin.com/in/kjaelskaalerud/ ► https://www.skalingventures.com/ ► Read a more in-depth review of Kjael's acquisition process: https://skalingventures.substack.com/p/issue-8-we-made-an-acquisition Follow the Host: Andrew Gazdecki - ► https://twitter.com/agazdecki​ ► https://www.linkedin.com/in/agazdecki/​ ► https://acquire.com Follow Acquire.com - ► https://twitter.com/acquiredotcom ► https://www.linkedin.com/company/acquiredotcom ► https://www.tiktok.com/@acquiredotcom ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ About Acquire.com: Acquire.com is the largest and most active acquisition marketplace for buying and selling online businesses.
