Episode Synopsis

In this episode of QSBS Solved, Brady Weller sits down with Andrew Gazdecki, founder of Acquire.com, to talk about his journey through multiple exits, from a $50K college side project to building Business Apps into a $10M ARR company. Andrew shares why most acquisitions are far smaller than the billion-dollar headlines, how founders can maximize their odds of success, and the role QSBS played in his own deal structure. They discuss the rise of solo founders, the real impact of AI on early-stage businesses, and what sellers can do to prepare for a smooth, high-value exit.
