In this episode of the SaaS Revolution Show our host Alex Theuma is joined by Job van der Voort, Co-Founder & CEO at Remote, who shares their hypergrowth journey and how they scaled Remote to hundreds of millions in ARR.
"IĀ wouldĀ alwaysĀ sayĀ thisĀ isĀ aĀ greatĀ problemĀ toĀ have.Ā IfĀ youĀ growĀ really,Ā reallyĀ fastĀ andĀ it'sĀ aĀ luxuryĀ problem,Ā andĀ ifĀ youĀ justĀ embraceĀ itĀ likeĀ that,Ā thenĀ everythingĀ becomesĀ muchĀ easier.Ā JustĀ embraceĀ itĀ inĀ theĀ mostĀ honestĀ possibleĀ way,Ā whichĀ isĀ that,Ā wow,Ā weĀ getĀ soĀ muchĀ interestĀ thatĀ weĀ haveĀ toĀ solveĀ theseĀ reallyĀ difficultĀ problemsĀ rightĀ now. It's for sake of, you know, our success, or at least the direction of success. To me, that was never difficult. What is difficult is how it affects the rest of your life."
