Andy Baker’s Post

Amazing day one at #Renewd24 in Arlington VA. So many highlights, including Jacob Donnelly’s just for the record “we’re not in the ads business, we’re not in the subscription business, we’re in the content business”, Stacey Bailey and Elizabeth Petersen describing the product pivot required to deliver an enterprise proposition, Dan Fink unpacking the pricing opportunities he helped capture in a recent acquisition, a Brian C. masterclass on membership, training and event synergy, and Jennifer Schivas-Porter and Will Bailey taking us out on an AI journey to 2034 !! Heck, I’ve got to present tomorrow and the bar is seriously high !!! On a heartfelt, somber note we started the day remembering the iridescent Merry Eisner from RTO Insider LLC; much, much missed. #Renewd24, Jessica Bradley Daniel Pitchford Jenefer Thoroughgood Piers Bearne

This is the third year for me at Renewd, an event with a geniune community feel to it. It’s always incredibly well run, friendly and the Arlington venue is terrific. I’ll be sharing a sneak preview of our latest survey of PE and trade buyers….the characteristics they look for in B2B acquisitions of founder-led businesses, their sweet spot sizes and valuation multiples for different revenue models.

I’ll take a ‘very good’ score from Rory Brown any day of the week (just need the Hammers to keep beating his Bees to make life near perfect).

Please join me for this webinar - I doubt you could ask for insights from two better placed, market-leading, award-winning B2B Editors, who have driven the success of their subscription-led businesses. Catrin Griffiths Alastair McLellan
