I interviewed Grey Baker, founder of Dependabot (Bootstrapped, $14k MRR, Acq. GitHub) on my podcast

I met Grey at IndieBeers in London a few months ago and was fascinated by his story. Grey started his career at McKinsey, before joining a 6 person startup called GoCardless, which he stayed with to 100 people!

Grey then cycled around the world before coming back home to start a healthcare startup, which ultimately failed. But fear not! As Dependabot was born (a service that makes it easy for developers to keep the third-party dependencies their code uses up-to-date).

With a lot of hard work and perseverance, Grey managed to grow Dependabot to $14k MRR, before selling the company to GitHub earlier this year.

We talk about all of this on my podcast, Marketing Mashup, I'd love if you could take a listen and let me know your thoughts.
