#210 – John Gallagher Lets SAAS Founders Retain a Majority Share
You have a company that is profitable, but you need funds to hire a superstar, acquire another company, or launch a marketing program... Where do you get the money?
You have funding options when you’re a software company with recurring revenue. One of them is John Gallagher, the CEO of Element SaaS Finance. He leads a boutique growth finance company that invests in and lends to SaaS and recurring revenue companies.
John talks with David about the challenges of growing a company. Leaders get stuck doing everything, which causes growth initiatives to get set aside. This podcast discusses the importance of strategy and how to work effectively with outside investors, whether they are on your board or not.
John discusses what he learned from working with Mazars Ireland, and Ireland Investments, one of Ireland's most prominent family investment offices. He also has served as a SaaS CFO consultant to some of the fastest-growing software companies in Europe.
John has been responsible for growing his company 150% year over year. He and his team are helping entrepreneurs grow substantially. Join this conversation to learn how financial people view your business, as well as a brief explanation of another finance model available to fund your growth.
