Ahrefs went from $0 to $100M ARR in 10 years, bootstrapped. 65%+ growth year-over-year and tons of unconventional strategies to build their SaaS. I talked to Tim (CMO) about how they got here, why they have no tracking pixel on their website, why they don’t do any testing and more.  All the answers in this second episode of the Bootstrapped Stories.

Pretty unusual for a SaaS, right? But that's one of the unique growth strategies that helped Flodesk reach $15M in ARR in just 3 years, being bootstrapped. In this episode, Martha Bitar (co-founder and CEO) shares her learnings on what helped them grow so fast.  We'll also talk about the challenges that came with such unexpected growth, as well as her hard moments. We finish up the episode with a discussion on mental adjustment and how important it is to realize that your role is NOT to be everything for everyone.
