Too often, I see founders and CEOs tackle finance and accounting in one of three ways: managing it themselves, hiring a CPA and bookkeeper, or bringing in an FTE to manage the books who may not have the right experience to do so. Or worse, delegating the responsibility to someone internally who doesn't have the tools to excel or is spread too thin. Each method has its opportunities, but here's the kicker: why settle for less when there's a better way? Enter AVL. We're here to shake up the game and provide the resources your early-stage company needs to thrive.

In the realm of lower middle market SaaS buyouts, a traditional playbook has proven its worth time and again - 'multiple arbitrage' Defining the term: buying smaller SaaS firms at a certain multiple, growing them, and then selling at a higher multiple due to perceived stability and scale. The Essence of the Playbook: // Acquisition: Target a SaaS business with around $5M in ARR for approximately 3.5x its value. // Growth Goal: Aim to double the firm's size to $10M in ARR within three years or less, targeting a 30% CAGR. // Exit Strategy: Sell the now larger firm for a 5x-8x multiple, capitalizing on the market's premium valuation of larger, seemingly more stable companies. This approach leverages the exponential effect of multiple expansion on a larger ARR base, creating significant wealth and value. It's a nuanced strategy, where ARR category growth is just one factor among others like profitability and growth rate, each varying in importance by investor. Yet, this playbook isn't just about numbers. It's a testament to strategic growth, market perception, and the savvy navigation of SaaS market dynamics.

The general startup cycle doesn't have a particular start of finish, it's a constant cycle of Engagement - Revenue generation - Cost Management and Growth ! I recently came across an interesting research from Bowery Capital which appoints to similar metrics for Vertical SaaS. More than the traditional LTV/CAC ratios, they highlight metrics like Net Retention Rate and the Attach Rate as key metrics of success. #startup #strategy #finance
