Episode description

In this episode of the SaaS Revolution Show our host Alex Theuma is joined by founder & CEO lempire and SaaStock 2024 speaker, Guillaume Moubeche, as he shares how Lempire scaled from $10M to $23M ARR in two years (bootstrapped!). "I was not ambitious enough, for me my ambition was to get a salary so I could help my girlfriend at the time paying the rent. Eventually, having someone, you know, who sees things 10 to 20x bigger for yourself than you, is actually amazing and I think that was the biggest helper that basically forced me to think of things at a way bigger and larger scale." He shares: - Why achieving PMF doesn't mean everlasting success - Understanding the 'S curve' and its implications on a business - How his upbringing encouraged the bootstrapped mindset - If de-risking and ambition go hand in hand - The ultimate founder hack (bank loans up to 7x of your EBITDA) - Fostering motivation within the team and more!      Check out the other ways SaaStock is helping SaaS founders move their business forward:  🇮🇪 SaaStock Europe: 14-15 October 2025 | Dublin, Ireland Book you tickets: https://saastock-europe.com/tickets/ 🇺🇸 SaaStock USA 2025: April 2026 | Austin, Texas Join the waitlist: https://saastock-usa.com/ 🤝 SaaStock Founder Membership: A private members group of B2B SaaS founders between $100K - $10M ARR who are committed to growth and helping others (https://www.saastock.com/founder-membership/) 🌎 SaaStock Local: Monthly meet-ups in cities all around the world, bringing together SaaS enthusiasts and experts to discuss the most pressing topics in SaaS (https://local.saastock.com/home)
