#1903 How Acuity Scheduling grew 5X in 3 years (and was acquired by Squarespace)

Joining me is someone who was a Mixergy listener and whose software runs our entire booking process for guests.

I love what he built for so many reasons but about a year ago I read that he sold it to Squarespace! He bootstrapped the company so I want to find out his motivations for exiting.

I asked him to come back to the podcast to tell me how he grew since the last time we talked, how the sale went down, and how his life has changed after the sale.

Gavin Zuchlinski is the founder of Acuity Scheduling, online appointment scheduling software.
