SOLD: 23 Year Old Founder Sells his SaaS Startup for $500k
Luke Sheppard recently finished his bachelor’s degree at BYU with a little more spending money and work experience than most grads. He just sold his startup for $500,000 at age 23.
While attending university to study business, Luke launched a company called Revive Ratings. It was a marketing SaaS targeted at insurance agencies. He sold it in just over two years for six figures on Acquire.com.
To successfully launch his business, Luke took some big risks, like buying a one year $50,000 white-labeled software license while still pre-revenue.
But Luke also had lots of help along the way. His professors and even his competitors were happy to take a young college student under their wing as he learned the ropes.
After years of hard work and the help of the Acquire team, Luke managed to secure his dream exit and pave the road to many more to come. He’s already in the process of acquiring his next business on Acquire.
Post acquisition, listen to a jam-packed new episode of Startup Acquisition Stories Podcast as Luke and Andrew discuss:
- The unfair advantage of launching a startup while in university
- Why insurance agencies make great sales targets
- How Andrew first discovered the idea behind his first successful startup, Bizness Apps
- The potential timeline delays from SBA Loan buyers
- Andrew’s college days as a young entrepreneur
- What Andrew Gazdecki would be doing right now if he wasn’t running Acquire
Luke is just getting started and you can follow along on his journey here:

Startup Acquisition Stories With David Idol, Founder of Computer Mouse For XCloud
In a moment of frustration, David Idol created his first successful Chrome extension, Computer Mouse for XCloud.
In just a few short months, he was making $4,000 per month in revenue and he eventually sold his project for 5-figures.
Here’s how it happened.
David was working at Microsoft for Xbox Live when they launched XCloud, their cloud gaming application. It let players stream games from other devices like computers or phones.
But David noticed a problem. Gamers weren’t able to play games on their PCs without special controllers. He coded a Chrome extension letting gamers use their keyboards for games on the PC. He posted about it on Reddit and almost overnight acquired thousands of users.
After three months, David added a one-time payment to access his product and reached $4,000 in monthly revenue and over 250,000 users. People around the world wrote him emails and reviews thanking him for the extension. He’d even made it easier for disabled people to enjoy Xbox games.
But though Computer Mouse for XCloud was exploding in popularity, David didn’t feel he had time to keep adding features. He listed it on Acquire.com and eventually sold it to a promising buyer.
Post sale, tune into this week’s episode of startup acquisition stories as David and Andrew discuss:
- How David went from hacking Xbox games to working for Microsoft
- Why David’s product name was great for traffic
- The dangers of potential buyers for Chrome extensions
- How to transfer ownership of Chrome extensions

Startup Acquisition Stories With Adam Senese, Founder of Linq Commerce
What would you do if you were stuck in a cabin during an Icelandic snowstorm?
Adam Senese and his brother came up with their Shopify app for product bundling, Linq Commerce, trapped in an Airbnb for the day during the dead of the Icelandic winter.
The cofounders went home and launched Linq Commerce in early 2020 right as covid hit the world and people scrambled for new ways to make money online. It ended up being a record year for new Shopify stores. Within weeks, Adam and his brother had over 1,000 users on their app.
Linq Commerce grew steadily from there, but after two years of building, Adam and his brother felt they weren’t the right owners to grow Linq to the next level. It was time to find a buyer.
Adam listed on Acquire.com in late 2022 and sold to a promising buyer for five figures in six months.
Post-acquisition, listen to Adam’s chat with Andrew Gazdecki as they discuss:
- Why Shopify apps are great for first-time SaaS founders
- How to find product market fit with any SaaS product
- The importance of goodwill between buyers and sellers
- Why sellers should start with a slightly lower asking price if they want a good sale price

This Founder Sold His Startup, Bought it Back for Pennies, and Resold it on Acquire.com for 5 Figures
If someone told you they did what you just read in this title, you’d probably think they’d committed a crime.
But Qayyum Rajan’s good fortune was a surprise twist of fate.
Early in 2023, Qayyum sold his business, ESG Analytics, to a private equity firm. But, his acquirer ran out of money and offered the business back to him for next to nothing a few months later.
Qayyum got back in the driver's seat of his startup, spent $10,000 to redesign its website, and then listed it on Acquire.com for another sale.
ESG Analytics was popular with buyers. Its clients were mid-level private equity firms and portfolio managers who needed to evaluate environmental social good (ESG) performance across large numbers of businesses.
No other tool provided affordable ESG industry reports at the time. Within days of listing on Acquire, Qayyam was pitting a handful of small PE buyers against each other in a bidding war.
He finally sold for five figures, spent 20 percent on a vacation for himself and his wife, and set the other 80 percent aside for savings.
Post-acquisition, listen to Qayyum’s Startup Acquisition Stories Podcast episode with Andrew as they discuss:
- The huge ESG industry problem Qayyum capitalized on
- The advantages of selling a business multiple times
- What founders need to do to increase their sale valuation
- Why future sellers need to be extra careful when applying for a business credit card
Qayyum is just getting started and you can follow him on his journey here:

Startup Acquisition Stories Podcast with Wil Schroter, Founder of Startups.com
Most venture-backed startups fail.
It’s a well-known fact, yet many venture-backed founders choose to burn out and ride their dying startups into the ground. Few realize they have options like M&A that could salvage their business for both themselves and their investors.
Wil Schroter, founder of Startups.com knows all about failing startups. He founded nine different startups over 30 years despite one of his first businesses crashing due to lack of capital. When his business failed, Wil was perplexed. A business valued in the millions with happy customers and even profits was still able to fall apart to nothing. It defied logic and he felt the business surely should still be valuable to someone.
It caused Wil to spend years talking to people in San Francisco trying to understand exactly how to sell and buy dying VC-backed startups.
After meetings with over 100 failing VC-backed businesses, Wil created his company Startups.com by buying the assets of six burnt-out VC startups. Since then, he’s made an estimated 50 times ROI from his buys.
Tune in to an extra-special episode of Startup Acquisition Stories with Wil and Andrew as they discuss a topics rarely heard about outside of corporate boardrooms like:
► How to know it’s time to throw in the towel on your VC-backed startup ► How to break the news that you want to leave your startup to your board ► Which types of buyers will want to buy your startup ► How to restructure your startup so that it is as desirable as possible to potential buyers.
Wil’s isn’t just getting started – he’s been doing what he does for decades. Follow his journey at: Startups.com

Startup Acquisition Stories with Dani Parra ibanez and Drilon Sqn, Founder of TrustApps
Working a nine-to-five can be a great launchpad for a successful SaaS application. Just ask Belgian founders Dani Ibanez and Drilon Sqn. Using their industry experience, they created a review application for Shopify called TrustReviews and sold it for six figures. Dani and Drilon look similar (and even finish each other's sentences) but they've pursued very different careers. Drilon is a software engineer and a cybersecurity consultant for the Belgian government. Dani worked in ecommerce marketing, advertising, and media buying for a handful of big-name clients. When they started brainstorming products to build together, Dani remembered his problems with product review apps from his marketing days. Many review platforms were two years behind on features like video reviews, for example. They built their own application and grew it rapidly through word of mouth and listening to customer feedback. They were proud of TrustReviews but when they got wind of a real-estate flip opportunity in Belgium, TrustReviews was the product they owned that was most easily sellable. They hopped on Acquire unsure they could actually sell TrustReviews but ended up closing the six-figure deal in a staggering two weeks. They walked away with more than enough to close their real estate deal. Listen to their talk with Andrew post acquisition as they discuss: ► Why you shouldn’t grow a Shopify app too quickly ► What to do with a windfall of money. ► The best parts of the Acquire.com Escrow.com integration ► A key feature they added to their website that boosted sales ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Be sure to subscribe to see the newest acquisition stories every Tuesday and gain the knowledge to buy or sell your own online business → https://youtube.com/@acquiredotcom?sub_confirmation=1 Want more stories?

Startup Acquisition Stories with Kjael Skaalerud, President of Skaling Ventures
Kjael Skaalerud is the Founder and President of Skaling Ventures, a Private Equity firm acquiring and operating micro-SaaS businesses. Kjael recently made their first acquisition via Acquire.com and is taking a very cool #buildinpublic approach by sharing in-depth details around building their portfolio starting with this first one.
Kjael jumped on the podcast with Andrew and drops a ton of knowledge around:
► How their venture utilizes a punitive scorecard system to evaluate certain aspects of the acquisition target - ideal valuation multiples, retention rates, growth rates, ideal technical debt range, etc.
► The three pillars of SaaS data sitting in system of records that matter the most - "books, customers, employees".
► What a top-notch seller looks like from how they talk about the business to how clean they've kept their data.
This episode is worth a watch for any buyer looking to acquire their first business and a seller who wants to put their best foot forward against buyers who know what they're doing.
