Ep 366 The Inside Story of Stripe’s Acquisition of Indie Hackers with Co-Founder Channing Allen - a podcast by John Warrillow author of Built to Sell and The Automatic Customer and the f

In 2016 Channing Allen and his brother Courtland founded Indie Hackers, a blog and forum that encourages founders to transparently share their ideas and stories. 

After only eight months, the brothers had grown the business to $8,000 in revenue when they received an unexpected email from Patrick Collison (co-founder and CEO of Stripe), who was looking to acquire the company. 

Although tempted to keep building, Stripe’s offer was too good to refuse. The brothers agreed to be acquired by Stripe in March 2017.
