Jesse Pujji's Linkedin Analytics

Hi! I'm Jesse, a founder and investor who loves helping people grow through entrepreneurship. Everything I know today comes from bootstrapping my first business Ampush to a mid 8-figure exit. During my time there, we managed over $1BN of digital media spend, grew to 100+ employees, and partnered with brands such as Uber, Birch box, and Hulu. It was quite the rollercoaster and set the foundation for what I do today: Build ambitious bootstrapped companies at my venture studio Gateway X. Our portfolio includes: Growth Assistant, which embeds the best offshore growth marketers into your company. Aux Insights, which offers digital marketing due diligence and value creation services for private equity. Unbloat, a DTC brand that offers doctor-formulated supplements designed to improve gut health. Aside from venture building, I share my learnings on topics like sales, finance, hiring and more in my weekly newsletter "Bootstrapped Giants". When I'm not working, I love to travel, play tennis, watch Pixar movies, and indulge in dark chocolate. I'm based in St. Louis, MO with my wife Deepika, son Ricky, and daughters Serena and Mika. So, if you're interested in bootstrapping, growth marketing, ecom, or leadership, follow me on LinkedIn.
