Esther Crawford – Selling Her Squad App to Twitter

Esther Crawford on She's Got Moxie with Joy ChudacoffThis week’s guest, Esther Crawford, was the CEO and Co-founder of the Squad app when it was acquired by Twitter back in 2020. I admire her transparency as she talks with me about her journey to break the cycle of poverty that she grew up in and why her curiosity has driven her forward at such an impressive speed. We discuss what it’s like to consider selling your company and what happens after your business gets acquired. She is aligned, grounded, and a deep thinker. It was a pleasure to sit down with her and explore the entrepreneurial journey with her.

Listen in as we talk about the inner journey of an entrepreneur, why launches are really important in business, and why we should never work in stealth mode.
