Listing on Acquire.com brought over 30 NDAs in the first few days, and after a smooth diligence process, he found the right buyer who understood both the niche and the tech stack.
Today, Abdulla is working full-time on his next project: DetectingAI.com, which identifies whether content was generated by AI, already serving over 250,000 users.

Kamil Almost Went Broke Growing His AI Startup – An Acquisition Saved It
Have you ever fantasized about quitting your job and living off savings until you built a successful business or ran out of cash?
SaaS builder Kamil Zowczac nearly accomplished both at the same time.
While living in Bali off the money he’d earned as a project manager at a startup, Kamil taught himself to code and built a fast AI reel-video creation app called Copycopter.
Marketing his product was slow at first. Kamil started offering a free subscription and then mysteriously went viral among Chinese Tiktok (Douyin) users after posting about it on Twitter. After installing a paywall and successfully launching on Product Hunt, he began to make a bit of money, but it was all too little too late. He’d spent too much time building his product and not enough time marketing it and was out of money. He needed an exit, fast.
After posting about his dilemma on Twitter, Acquire.com’s CEO, Andrew Gazdecki, helped Kamil list his business for free. After a few difficult negotiations with buyers and one deal that fell through, Kamil encountered his dream buyer. Within 24 hours, he’d finished all the deal paperwork and completed the sale of Copycopter.
Now Kamil is back to building businesses in Bali living comfortably off his acquisition and resting easier knowing if he needs an exit, serious buyers are only a few clicks away.
Listen to Kamil’s interview with Andrew post-acquisition as they discuss:
Kamil’s tech recommendations for anyone wanting to get into AI video editing.
The unfair marketing trick that applications like Copycopter can pull off better than any other SaaS.
Andrew’s top piece of advice for sellers who don’t want to get locked into negotiations with an unserious buyer.

How to Prime Your Business For a Seamless Acquisition with Sukhpal Saini

Want to Build an Agency Worth Buying? Spend a Decade Saying Yes
While working full-time as a pharmaceutical sales rep, Bobby Dimovski noticed that medical professionals were:
- Always looking for new ways to grow their business.
- Usually 10 years behind on marketing trends.
- Hard to access (unless you were a pharmaceutical sales rep).
Armed with this information and wanting to save for his kids’ college fund, Bobby founded a healthcare-industry marketing agency, 4MJ Social, in 2014.
He started by upselling his medical clients on marketing services like SEO and Facebook business profiles. Over 14 years, he expanded into a multi-client, full-service healthcare marketing agency doing web design, PPC, social media, and everything in between.
Then a family member began suffering health issues. Bobby couldn’t put in the time to keep the business going. Rather than diminish his salary by hiring new management, Bobby wanted to unlock some extra cash from his decade-plus of work so he could take an extended break without worrying about money.
Acquire.com had everything Bobby needed to find the right buyer for his business. Working with Acquisition Manager Ky Pratt, Bobby sourced the perfect buyer who understood his business and was willing to carry on his vision. The deal nearly fell apart when the financier pulled out, but Ky managed to keep all parties working together, and within a week, everyone was happy.
Tune in to this episode of Startup Acquisition Stories Podcast to hear Andrew and Bobby discuss:
- Why Bobby spent four years pursuing one of his largest clients (and what it took to land the deal).
- Why Bobby thinks all founders should ponder their seller financing limits before acquisition.
- Why always being completely transparent about your business attracts the best buyers.

Turning Your Weakest Skill into an Acquire’d Startup

How Ian Blair Jumped From Building Apps to Selling Laundry Sauce With Acquire.com

How to Build SaaS for an Industry No One Knows About (Except Your Customers)
Have you ever heard of the career readiness industry?
It’s a rarely reported on but active auxiliary industry spanning career coaching and development, edtech, vocational training, higher education, and more.
Just career coaching and development alone is valued at $45 billion.
Harris Osserman founded Talk Hiring originally to turn voice notes into job applications as a B2C career-readiness product. He and his team changed trajectories into the B2B industry when a school district tried to buy them out as an interview prep tool.
On the back of the successful pivot and many timely connections with hiring groups, Harris and his team developed Talk Hiring into a useful job interview simulation tool. Then they spun off a handful of other career-readiness apps when they saw the market was underserved.
However, after the birth of his first child and a move to Atlanta, Harris was ready to sell Talk Hiring and look for something new to spend his time on.
He created an account on Acquire.com and experienced just how effective it was to attract qualified buyers, securing seven offers within weeks. With the help of the Acquire team, he sourced an all-cash deal from a private buyer and closed quickly.
Listen to Harris’ talk with Andrew as they discuss:
- How Harris pivoted into the career-readiness industry (he did a lot of volunteering).
- How Harris marketed his product (about five different ways).
- Why using Acquire.com can help you land a higher sale price.
- The startup building mistake to avoid if you want to attract buyers financing acquisitions with SBA loans.

How to Build a Profitable SaaS in 6 Months and Sell it in 5 Days

Startup Acquisition Stories Ep #112 | Making $250,000 on His Second Sale on Acquire.com
Nico Jeannen just made a quarter-million dollar sale a couple weeks ago with the acquisition of his transcription product, Talknotes.
It’s his second sale after a string of roughly 17 startups that have seen increasing success.
Here’s how he made TalkNotes.
One day, Nico was trying to get Google to transcribe a voice note for him when he noticed the quality was poor. He crafted a prototype transcriber using an AI API and posted it on X.com (formerly Twitter) making $700 in just a few days.
He scaled further using his knowledge of SEO gained from previous projects.
Nico realized he didn’t want to spend hours fixing code and doing customer support after one round of bug fixes dipped customer acquisition by 70%. He wanted to sell quickly – before he burned out.
He listed on Acquire and secured an all-cash $200,000 deal in weeks with the help of Ebony on Acquire.com’s support team.
Listen to Andrew and Nico’s interview as they discuss:
- What Nico has learned about startups after building 17 of them
- Why Nico accepted a drastic price cut for his sale
- The dangers of playing buyers against each other

Startup Acquisition Stories Podcast With Guilhermo Oenning, Founder of Fider
How important is your peace of mind to you?
Brazilian founder Guilhermo (Guy) Oenning built a SaaS business called Fider, monetized it, and let it quietly earn him $1,000 a month for three years. He sold when he realized it was taking up too much mental space that he could use to focus on other, more profitable projects.
After a quick onboarding to Acquire.com, Guy started receiving NDAs within hours of listing. He moved to due diligence with a buyer in two weeks and by four weeks had money in the bank to reinvest into his new projects.
He’s now working on two businesses:
- Aptakupe, a development tool for simplifying communications with Kubernetes.
- SEOgets analytics for SEO agents. He says it’s like Google Search Console with more functionality.
Listen to Andrew's talk with Andrew post-sale as they discuss:
- How Guy pushed free users to monetize (or at least give him a backlink)
- How the indie hacker community changed Guy’s perspective on building startups.
- Why Guy thinks a passive business can be a drain on your energy.

Startup Acquisition Stories Podcast With Jovan Meljevic, Founder of BountyHunter
When you lack the experience and money to scale your agency, what should you do?
Jovan Meljevic created his agency for B2B SaaS businesses, Bountyhunter, when he noticed a shortage of people and agencies experienced in startup growth. His business grew quickly aiding clients with everything from SEO to customer support to product analysis.
Although Jovan was on a good trajectory, after five years he realized his agency needed outside input and money to grow. In late 2023 he decided to sell on Acquire. He listed and was shocked by the number of buyers out there looking for agencies like his.
Jovan closed with an experienced agency buyer after about 5 months. He now works as an employee at Bountyhunter as his business grows around him.

Startup Acquisitions Stories Podcast With Victor Metelskiy, Founder of Sitekick.ai
Would you sell your business right as it was going viral on social media?
Victor created his AI landing page builder, Sitekick.ai as a way to salvage a previous project – a slide deck builder called Slidekick.
He thought this too would be a flop, but he added AI capability right as ChatGPT kicked off and went viral on YouTube when a vlogger found his website.
In one day he jumped from one email a day to hundreds of emails and 25 sales per day.
But even with virality, making websites wasn’t Victor’s passion. He listed on Acquire.com hoping to get a sale while his app was trending. With the help of the Acquire team (shout out to Matt), he closed in a few short months.
After closing, Viktor took a long vacation, went to the gym, took his wife out to dinner, and now he’s gearing up to make his future passion project.
Tune in to this weeks Startup Acquisition Stories Podcast with Andrew and Victor in to hear:

Startup Acquisition Stories Podcast With Pascal Levy-Garboua, CEO of Noosa Labs

Startup Acquisition Stories With Eric Pacifici of SMB Law Group
What are the three biggest mistakes SME buyers make when choosing an M&A lawyer?
M&A professional Eric Pacifici says new buyers often pick lawyers who:
- Aren’t entrepreneurial
- Bill hourly rather than flat rate
- Don’t have M&A experience
After years of cementing billion-dollar deals at Kirkland & Ellis (the largest firm in the world by revenue), Eric decided he liked smaller deals better. He decided to jump into the world of small business acquisitions.
Eric is well-known on the internet for his Twitter account (@smb_attorney) and for coining the term “silver tsunami” i.e.the coming wealth transfer between baby boomers and their offspring. He realized a few years ago that many of these boomers’ small businesses would be put up for sale in the coming years.
To confront this coming wave of small acquisitions, Eric teamed up with a team of fellow lawyers from large firms with a passion for smaller deals to create SMB Law Group.
SMB Law today specializes specifically in entrepreneurship-by-acquisition deals. Those are deals where aspiring entrepreneurs get a running start by purchasing a fully functioning business.
Business has been heating up. The firm did $950 million in closings just last year. Eric and SMB Law are fast becoming the go-to lawyers for people trying to buy small and medium-sized businesses in the US.
This week, Eric hopped on the SASP with Andrew Gazdecki to discuss:
- Where Eric thinks most deals go wrong
- Why you need a good lawyer when buying a business for $1 million+
- Andrew’s lawyer billing horror story
Eric is just getting started and you can contact and follow him below:

Startup Acquisition Stories With Bryan Digiorgio, Founder of 1840 & Company
What’s the trick to buying offshore businesses as a US buyer?
Bryan Digiorgio of 1840 & Company says buyers need to understanding two things:
- It requires a lot of documents and processes
- You need to get started with them as soon as possible because they’re sequential
Bryan’s had a bit of experience on this topic, his main business today is setting up remote teams for other businesses in other countries. In the past, he worked as the global head of customer service for Sprint and built the direct precursors to Microsoft Teams.
After previously buying a business on Acquire.com two years ago, Byan returned this year to buy a blockchain-based business, Swearit, from a group of founders in Spain. In the process, he got to experience Acquire’s new buyer advisory service. They helped him successfully transact with a seller who didn’t speak the same language.
Listen to a special buy-side advice section as Bryan and Andrew discuss:
- How Bryan looks for promising business to buy on Acquire.com
- Why foreign businesses can be much more profitable in the US
- The number one trait for sellers on Acquire.com that attracts buyers
Bryan has been doing entrepreneurship and M&A for a little while now. Follow his journey using the links below:

Startup Acquisition Stories Podcast With Miguel Diaz, Founder of Swearit (Acquisition in Spanish)
Selling your business to a buyer in the same country is tough. Imagine doing it across international borders.
Miguel Diaz spent three years building Swearit, a blockchain-based authenticity verification platform. However, he realized that it could scale better in the hands of another founder so he looked for a place to sell.
In Miguel’s opinion, most other startup marketplaces were too broad. You could sell anything from tech businesses to hotels. It was hard to say what buyers or valuations he could expect.
When the team stumbled on Acquire.com, they were intrigued because it specialized in SaaS M&A. There was only one problem – none of them could speak much English.
Still, Miguel and his team listed their business and were surprised to learn that two Acquire team members were fluent in Spanish.
Miguel received direct help in Spanish from Acquire’s president, Rosa Romaine and legal counsel, James Graves. With Acquire’s help, Miguel managed to obtain his dream exit within months.
Post transaction, Miguel jumped on the podcast with Rosa and James to talk about his acquisition. Tune in to hear:
- How EU regulations are changing to monitor food quality
- Some of the cultural differences he encountered during M&A
- His favorite parts of the seller experience on Acquire.com
Miguel is just getting started. Follow his journey with the links below:

Listen to Jeel share his insights and learnings from running his startup to the acquisition process:
How Jeel discovered there was still room in a niche with behemoth-sized competitors
How Heel played the SEO game to build hype around InvoiceOwl
What Jeel believes is the most important thing to include in your startup sales process

Startup Acquisition Stories With Luke Sheppard, Founder of Revive Ratings
Luke Sheppard recently finished his bachelor’s degree at BYU with a little more spending money and work experience than most grads. He just sold his startup at 23 years old.
While attending university to study business, Luke launched a company called Revive Ratings. It was a marketing SaaS targeted at insurance agencies. He sold it in just over two years on Acquire.com.
To successfully launch his business, Luke took some big risks, like buying a one year $50,000 white-labeled software license while still pre-revenue.
But Luke also had lots of help along the way. His professors and even his competitors were happy to take a young college student under their wing as he learned the ropes.
After years of hard work and the help of the Acquire team, Luke managed to secure his dream exit and pave the road to many more to come. He’s already in the process of acquiring his next business on Acquire.
Post acquisition, listen to a jam-packed new episode of Startup Acquisition Stories Podcast as Luke and Andrew discuss:
- The unfair advantage of launching a startup while in university
- Why insurance agencies make great sales targets
- How Andrew first discovered the idea behind his first successful startup, Bizness Apps
- The potential timeline delays from SBA Loan buyers
- Andrew’s college days as a young entrepreneur
- What Andrew Gazdecki would be doing right now if he wasn’t running Acquire

Startup Acquisition Stories With David Idol, Founder of Computer Mouse For XCloud
In a moment of frustration, David Idol created his first successful Chrome extension, Computer Mouse for XCloud.
In just a few short months, he was making $4,000 per month in revenue and he eventually sold his project for 5-figures.
Here’s how it happened.
David was working at Microsoft for Xbox Live when they launched XCloud, their cloud gaming application. It let players stream games from other devices like computers or phones.
But David noticed a problem. Gamers weren’t able to play games on their PCs without special controllers. He coded a Chrome extension letting gamers use their keyboards for games on the PC. He posted about it on Reddit and almost overnight acquired thousands of users.
After three months, David added a one-time payment to access his product and reached $4,000 in monthly revenue and over 250,000 users. People around the world wrote him emails and reviews thanking him for the extension. He’d even made it easier for disabled people to enjoy Xbox games.
But though Computer Mouse for XCloud was exploding in popularity, David didn’t feel he had time to keep adding features. He listed it on Acquire.com and eventually sold it to a promising buyer.
Post sale, tune into this week’s episode of startup acquisition stories as David and Andrew discuss:
- How David went from hacking Xbox games to working for Microsoft
- Why David’s product name was great for traffic
- The dangers of potential buyers for Chrome extensions
- How to transfer ownership of Chrome extensions

Startup Acquisition Stories With Adam Senese, Founder of Linq Commerce
What would you do if you were stuck in a cabin during an Icelandic snowstorm?
Adam Senese and his brother came up with their Shopify app for product bundling, Linq Commerce, trapped in an Airbnb for the day during the dead of the Icelandic winter.
The cofounders went home and launched Linq Commerce in early 2020 right as covid hit the world and people scrambled for new ways to make money online. It ended up being a record year for new Shopify stores. Within weeks, Adam and his brother had over 1,000 users on their app.
Linq Commerce grew steadily from there, but after two years of building, Adam and his brother felt they weren’t the right owners to grow Linq to the next level. It was time to find a buyer.
Adam listed on Acquire.com in late 2022 and sold to a promising buyer for five figures in six months.
Post-acquisition, listen to Adam’s chat with Andrew Gazdecki as they discuss:
- Why Shopify apps are great for first-time SaaS founders
- How to find product market fit with any SaaS product
- The importance of goodwill between buyers and sellers
- Why sellers should start with a slightly lower asking price if they want a good sale price

This Founder Sold His Startup, Bought it Back for Pennies, and Resold it on Acquire.com for 5 Figures
If someone told you they did what you just read in this title, you’d probably think they’d committed a crime.
But Qayyum Rajan’s good fortune was a surprise twist of fate.
Early in 2023, Qayyum sold his business, ESG Analytics, to a private equity firm. But, his acquirer ran out of money and offered the business back to him for next to nothing a few months later.
Qayyum got back in the driver's seat of his startup, spent $10,000 to redesign its website, and then listed it on Acquire.com for another sale.
ESG Analytics was popular with buyers. Its clients were mid-level private equity firms and portfolio managers who needed to evaluate environmental social good (ESG) performance across large numbers of businesses.
No other tool provided affordable ESG industry reports at the time. Within days of listing on Acquire, Qayyam was pitting a handful of small PE buyers against each other in a bidding war.
He finally sold for five figures, spent 20 percent on a vacation for himself and his wife, and set the other 80 percent aside for savings.
Post-acquisition, listen to Qayyum’s Startup Acquisition Stories Podcast episode with Andrew as they discuss:
- The huge ESG industry problem Qayyum capitalized on
- The advantages of selling a business multiple times
- What founders need to do to increase their sale valuation
- Why future sellers need to be extra careful when applying for a business credit card
Qayyum is just getting started and you can follow him on his journey here:

Startup Acquisition Stories Podcast with Wil Schroter, Founder of Startups.com
Most venture-backed startups fail.
It’s a well-known fact, yet many venture-backed founders choose to burn out and ride their dying startups into the ground. Few realize they have options like M&A that could salvage their business for both themselves and their investors.
Wil Schroter, founder of Startups.com knows all about failing startups. He founded nine different startups over 30 years despite one of his first businesses crashing due to lack of capital. When his business failed, Wil was perplexed. A business valued in the millions with happy customers and even profits was still able to fall apart to nothing. It defied logic and he felt the business surely should still be valuable to someone.
It caused Wil to spend years talking to people in San Francisco trying to understand exactly how to sell and buy dying VC-backed startups.
After meetings with over 100 failing VC-backed businesses, Wil created his company Startups.com by buying the assets of six burnt-out VC startups. Since then, he’s made an estimated 50 times ROI from his buys.
Tune in to an extra-special episode of Startup Acquisition Stories with Wil and Andrew as they discuss a topics rarely heard about outside of corporate boardrooms like:
► How to know it’s time to throw in the towel on your VC-backed startup ► How to break the news that you want to leave your startup to your board ► Which types of buyers will want to buy your startup ► How to restructure your startup so that it is as desirable as possible to potential buyers.
Wil’s isn’t just getting started – he’s been doing what he does for decades. Follow his journey at: Startups.com

Startup Acquisition Stories with Dani Parra ibanez and Drilon Sqn, Founder of TrustApps
Working a nine-to-five can be a great launchpad for a successful SaaS application. Just ask Belgian founders Dani Ibanez and Drilon Sqn. Using their industry experience, they created a review application for Shopify called TrustReviews and sold it for six figures. Dani and Drilon look similar (and even finish each other's sentences) but they've pursued very different careers. Drilon is a software engineer and a cybersecurity consultant for the Belgian government. Dani worked in ecommerce marketing, advertising, and media buying for a handful of big-name clients. When they started brainstorming products to build together, Dani remembered his problems with product review apps from his marketing days. Many review platforms were two years behind on features like video reviews, for example. They built their own application and grew it rapidly through word of mouth and listening to customer feedback. They were proud of TrustReviews but when they got wind of a real-estate flip opportunity in Belgium, TrustReviews was the product they owned that was most easily sellable. They hopped on Acquire unsure they could actually sell TrustReviews but ended up closing the six-figure deal in a staggering two weeks. They walked away with more than enough to close their real estate deal. Listen to their talk with Andrew post acquisition as they discuss: ► Why you shouldn’t grow a Shopify app too quickly ► What to do with a windfall of money. ► The best parts of the Acquire.com Escrow.com integration ► A key feature they added to their website that boosted sales ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Be sure to subscribe to see the newest acquisition stories every Tuesday and gain the knowledge to buy or sell your own online business → https://youtube.com/@acquiredotcom?sub_confirmation=1 Want more stories?
