Lemlist CEO Guillaume Moubeche: Gives Employees this bonus when 5x revenue growth target hit

I think to be honest, like it's basically like, let's say we're at, I mean, we're north of 2 million ARR, but I think it's like 7 million, 7 to 8 million.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

If I have to be very like reasonable, I would say, because it would be like something, if you are like super reasonable on our market and based on our growth, I would say like 3 to 4 X ARR is something that's like the, would say low end, 5X would be high end.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
