About me

Hey there! I'm Travis - and I'm a serial founder with 8 exits (so far), the most recent one being GrowFlow back in 2022 (Inc 500 #312) for just under $70m. I'm a growth mentor at all the major startup accelerators, including 500 Startups, TechStars, SOSV, Hax, IndieBio, LvlUp, MassChallenge... the list goes on. I'm also a doctoral candidate in business, and my dissertation is focused on quantum computing. I've raised over $100m across several companies I've built, but more than half my exits have been bootstrapped. I've also done a few turnarounds, and work closely with VCs and investment banks to help their portfolio companies and clients win bigger, grow faster, and exit smarter. I've written a few books, the latter of which is called Viral Hero, which helps you craft powerful viral loops within your products to help them grow themselves. A healthy chunk of that work hinges on crafting an experience with best-in-class customer and employee retention. I've helped several hundred founders grow faster by keeping more of the customers they already worked hard to acquire. In fact, that's what my new company - Revatto.com - does every day for some of the fastest growing subscription-based businesses. With a deep background in growth, marketing, and behavioral psychology, I now focus entirely on helping subscription-based businesses improve retention, reduce churn, and unlock compounding revenue.
