This week we sit down with Guillaume Moubeche of Lemlist, who went viral for refusing $30M. They’ve never taken funding or needed paid advertising. Guillaume tells us why, and how he is on a mission to reinvent what start-up success looks like.
Lemlist is a sales automation platform that allows B2B companies to automate their sales prospecting on various channels - cold e-mail, social selling, calls… In just three years, they grew from zero to 10k plus customers & 5M ARR.
We discuss,
- How Lemlist mastered organic growth;
- Why Guillaume Turned Down $30M investment;
- The pitfalls of focusing too much on funding;
- Guillaume's journey to become a successful entrepreneur;
- The difference between getting acquired and taking investment;
- Advice for aspiring entrepreneurs;
- Why positive feedback and non-violent communication is key;
- And how Guillaume got scammed by the Chinese mafia (really)!
