Andrew Gazdecki is the founder of Acquire.com, and he’s today's guest on Startup Strategies with Juliana Hahn. He’s building the go-to marketplace for founders looking to sell their startups — and doing it with serious scale. In this episode, we dive into how Andrew used two unconventional startup experiences (including one he exited quickly due to legal gray areas) and the lessons he learned in setting the foundation for a platform that’s helped facilitate over $500M in startup acquisitions.

Andrew shares his Startup Strategies on how to:

Turn failed ventures into market insight for your next big idea.
Use viral affiliate programs to tap into influencer networks and bring in 100K+ users pre-launch.
Use organic to prove the model, and paid to amplify what’s already working.
Maximize billboard ROI by repurposing it as high-performing social content.

Let’s break down his Startup Strategies!
