Growing and profitable

You have successfully managed to grow your business with both profitability and happy customers and employees. The business generates somewhere between 15-100 MSEK in revenue and you are contemplating what the next step should be: letting somebody else take over the business – or embarking on the next journey together.

Owned by founder(s)

You have been part of the journey from the start and have seen the business develop from an idea to an established organization delivering critical customer services to businesses in the Nordics. Potentially, there are different views among owners on the optimal way forward: untie capital for other dreams and goals, operate the business with minimum investments, or launch the next big strategic initiative.

Founders

Establishing business relationships, building teams, and making things happen are some of my most important strengths. They have benefited me greatly over the 10 years I’ve spent working with private investments in software businesses and an additional 10 years serving as an advisor during M&A transactions. I believe that I have a strong ability to determine what separates a good business from a bad one. Apart from one exception, I’ve managed to avoid or work my way through bad investments so far in my career. It is my core belief that investments become a lot easier if you acquire businesses with positive cashflow and stable customer relationships.

Based on my 15 years of experience from running and scaling B2B software businesses, I have a strong perception of what is required, and what works, to build and scale international businesses with recurring revenue. I am somewhat obsessed with the business model that SaaS entails, as well as passionate about supporting other businesses to improve in their segment. A common denominator for the businesses I’ve previously worked with is that they have been mature in their respective segments, and therefore required new ways of thinking to continue to grow without external capital. This has taught me to successfully balance building long-term value with immediate cashflow improvements.
