I Built Betches Without Investors, Then Sold It for Millions

Betches co-founder Aleen Dreksler is on Female Founder World with Jasmine Garnsworthy. While in college, Aleen and her roommates saw a trend for “bro content” online, and started a blog for the women’s version. Their blog, Betches, grew into a massive media empire with millions of fans, and was acquired in 2023 for up to $54M.  In this episode Aleen tells us how she built Betches with her cofounders, advice for building something that can be acquired for millions, what's shifted in digital publishing and content, and the copy-paste strategy you can use for securing big partnerships.
