About the Author
I'm Dirk Sahlmer, a Tech M&A professional and partner at FE International. I help founders navigate their exits.
Before moving sell-side, I spent 6 years leading deal origination at saas.group as their first full-time employee - sourcing and closing 20 SaaS acquisitions in the $1-10M ARR range that helped grow the portfolio from $2M to $100M ARR. I've sat on both sides of the table, talked to hundreds of founders and review SaaS companies every week.
I write this newsletter to share what I'm seeing in the trenches - SaaS metrics, market trends, valuations, and the realities founders need to know.
