Seun Oshinaike built Street Tag, a fitness app that turned daily walks into friendly competition and community impact, to make movement fun again.

Without VC funding or shortcuts, he grew Street Tag across the UK, proving that sustainable traction beats quick hype.

When the time came, he sold it through Acquire.com in a clean, strategic acquisition that preserved the mission.

His founder story demonstrates how preparation, documentation, and persistence turn a long-term vision into a smooth exit.

You’ll hear:

How Seun scaled Street Tag without VC money
Why clarity and documentation build trust with buyers
How a strategic buyer can amplify your mission after acquisition

3 lessons from Seun’s exit:

Transparency wins when honest founders build trust early.
Preparation pays when clean data keeps momentum alive.
Purpose scales when you choose people over offers.

For bootstrapped founders considering an exit, this episode shows why discipline and clarity lead to the cleanest deals.
