Harland Clarke Acquires RetailMeNot for $630M
"Never build your startup on another conpany's platform"That's true.. and if you followed that advice..- You would never have started retailmenot (too dependent on Google traffic)- You would never start Buffer and have over 10 million in annual revenue (too dependent on twitter api)- You would never would have started Heroku and get acquired for millions (too dependent on AWS)- You would never have started SimilarWeb and be valued at over 100 million dollars (too dependent on browser extensions and Google)
