From the SaaStock 2022 Bootstrap Stage: Mohannad Ali (CEO Hotjar) and Alex Delivet (Founder & CEO Collect).

Startups need to juggle various critical business decisions when planning for future growth. From VCs and funding rounds, to private equity or staying bootstrapped, the choices are never easy.

In this session, Mohannad shares his experience taking Hotjar, the leading product experience insights platform, from its decision to stay bootstrapped to $40 million ARR until its acquisition to Contentsquare in 2021. He provides insights on the strategies used to build continuous growth in the bootstrapped stage, the considerations and processes for acquisition, and the impacts of a new partnership on the business.
