From the video description

When to sell your SaaS business is the wrong question. The right one: how do you make sure you're getting the offer your business actually deserves? Einar Vollset breaks down SaaS exits, valuations, and timing. (This is a re-upload of a previously published talk; the prior video had a corrupted audio channel.) In this MicroConf US 2026 talk, Einar Vollset (co-founder of TinySeed, founder of Discretion Capital) walks through why "startups are bought, not sold" is useless advice — and what bootstrapped SaaS founders should actually do to maximize their exit. He's seen the same business get offers ranging from $5M to $25M depending on which buyers it's in front of.
