  • Acquiring a SaaS Business & Scaling it From $5k - $80k P/mth In 1 Year with Chanakya Yerneni

    Acquiring a SaaS Business & Scaling it From $5k - $80k P/mth In 1 Year with Chanakya Yerneni
    Nov 5 2025
    What if you could turn a $5K/month business into $80K/month in under a year? That’s exactly what Chan Yuenenyi did. In this episode, Jaryd Krause chats with the founder and CEO of EssayGrader AI—the world’s leading AI grading platform trusted by over 100,000 educators. When Chan bought the business, it was generating only $5,000 per month. Fast-forward less than a year later, and he’d scaled it to $80,000/month, hitting $1M in annual recurring revenue. But here’s the twist: Chan didn’t chase shiny tactics or massive ad budgets.He used precision. Systems. Deep understanding of what users actually need. Before founding EssayGrader AI, Chan managed a billion-dollar product line at OpenText. So, he knew one thing most first-time buyers miss—buying a business is easy. Growing one takes vision. In this conversation, you’ll discover how he: 🔥 Spots red flags before closing a deal🔥 Turns customer feedback into a growth engine🔥 Shifted from “operator” to “owner”🔥 Discovered the single most powerful strategy behind his $5K → $80K leap🔥 Built what he calls “inside-out growth”—and why it changes everything This isn’t just a story about scaling. It’s about clarity, focus, and designing a business that grows because it serves people better. If you’re looking to buy your first SaaS—or scale the one you already own—don’t miss this one.It’s packed with real lessons from someone who’s actually done it. Episode Highlights 08:08 – Chan reveals his process of evaluating 25–30 businesses over 90 days, learning to identify patterns, red flags, and what truly matters when choosing the right acquisition. 13:56 – Why product-market fit and traction matter more than polished features or perfect design when evaluating early-stage SaaS. 15:51 – Chan breaks down the valuation and deal structure—he bought SAGrader.ai for $125K in cash at a 2x revenue multiple. 19:46 – Red flags to watch for when buying a business—no traction, unclear customer base, lack of competitors, or overbuilt products. 27:42 – How involving users in building new features turned customers into loyal advocates and multiplied sales through word of mouth. 28:27 – The impressive growth story—from $5K to $80K MRR in a year—by focusing on fundamentals and customer insights over flashy marketing tactics. 30:34 – Why execution beats information overload: Chan’s advice to stop chasing every online guru and start acting on core business principles. Key Takeaways ➥ Acquiring an existing SaaS business offers a faster, lower-risk entry into entrepreneurship compared to starting from scratch, letting you focus on growth instead of setup. ➥ Evaluating dozens of deals before buying helps refine your investment instincts—each review teaches you how to spot red flags, assess traction, and recognize scalable opportunities. ➥ Product-market fit is the single most important factor in acquisition success; without genuine demand and active users, no amount of marketing can sustain growth. ➥ Direct customer communication—through live chat, feedback loops, or support channels—unlocks powerful insights that shape product improvements and retention. ➥ Growth doesn’t come from adding complexity but from deeply understanding your users and iterating based on their real-world needs. ➥ Cash deals can streamline acquisitions and build seller trust, though they require strong conviction in your due diligence and vision for growth. ➥ Listening, testing, and improving continuously can turn a modest $5K MRR business into an $80K MRR success—proof that fundamentals and focus outperform flashy tactics.

  • Inside Selling a SaaS Business: Real Stories, Risks & Rewards with Antoine Minoux

    Inside Selling a SaaS Business: Real Stories, Risks & Rewards with Antoine Minoux
    Oct 29 2025
    It’s not the numbers that make a business thrive—it’s the people, the trust, and the purpose behind it. In this revealing episode, Jaryd Krause sits down with Antoine Minoux, Principal Product Designer at Yelp and a serial entrepreneur who has founded, grown, and sold multiple successful SaaS ventures, including Improvmx and VoilaNorbert. Together, they unpack what really happens behind the scenes of buying, scaling, and selling online businesses—and the emotional intelligence required to do it right. Antoine shares his candid reflections on navigating acquisitions, from spotting undervalued opportunities to balancing multiple ventures and knowing when it’s time to sell. They explore how trust and transparency form the foundation of any successful deal, why valuation isn’t just about numbers, and how emotional awareness can be the difference between a smooth exit and a painful one. Through Antoine’s firsthand experiences, this conversation provides a roadmap for entrepreneurs looking to grow not just through innovation but through strategic acquisition and authentic relationships. Together, they explore: ✔️ Why buying an existing business can be less risky than starting from scratch✔️ The emotional and relational side of business acquisitions most founders overlook✔️ How to balance multiple ventures without losing clarity or momentum✔️ The right way to approach valuation and negotiation in SaaS deals✔️ Lessons learned from multiple exits—and why selling doesn’t always mean letting go Whether you’re an aspiring acquirer, a seasoned founder, or somewhere in between, this episode will challenge how you think about growth, exits, and the role of trust in entrepreneurship. 🎧 Tune in to discover how Antoine Minoux built and exited multiple SaaS businesses by combining strategic thinking with human-centered design—and how you can too. Episode Highlights 02:50 – Why acquisition can outperform starting from scratch: understanding risk reduction and leveraging proven systems for faster growth. 08:24 – Lessons from multiple exits: what Antoine learned about timing, valuation, and emotional readiness. 16:23 – Knowing when to sell: the strategic and personal factors that influence exit decisions. 19:26 – Balancing multiple ventures: how to manage creative energy, focus, and burnout when running several businesses. 22:02 – Smart valuation strategies: combining upfront cash flow with future performance for sustainable exits. 24:44 – Evolving as an entrepreneur: how experience shapes acquisition instincts and strategic clarity. 29:52 – Redefining the meaning of an exit: why selling a business doesn’t always mean walking away from your vision. Key Takeaways ➥ Buying an existing business often offers a safer and faster path to success than starting from zero. ➥ Trust and transparency aren’t just values—they’re strategic advantages in high-stakes transactions. ➥ Emotional awareness is critical during acquisitions and exits; ego-driven decisions can destroy deals. ➥ A great valuation balances immediate returns with long-term performance and relationships. ➥ Experience in your industry dramatically improves your ability to identify and grow profitable opportunities. ➥ Exiting a business can be a transformation, not a goodbye—many founders stay involved in new, more strategic ways. ➥ Growth through acquisition requires both strategic thinking and emotional intelligence—one without the other leads to imbalance.
