This week we had Baxter Lanius, CEO and Founder at Alternative join the Bowery Capital Startup Sales Podcast to discuss how he is building a sustainable, profitability focused startup.
Topics include:
- The difference in a Private Equity vs Venture Capital mindset
- Strategies for fundraising and scaling in a bear market
- Why he made the jump from investor to founding and building a company.
Big thank you to Baxter for coming on the podcast and sharing his insights with us!
