About Us
Amanda Laird
Hey there, I'm Amanda, the driving force behind Lygress, and I'm on a mission to help businesses flourish. Over the past 12 years, I've crafted several multimillion-dollar companies, and after my last successful exit, I joined forces with major venture capital firms to bring new ventures to life and help them thrive. In this journey, I've cracked the code on the sales and marketing strategies used by some of the world's biggest players, as well as the formula for launching and marketing the perfect offering.
But, you know, it didn't all start that way.
My first venture was a paper shredding and records storage company. Back then, I was a mom of two young boys, and it felt like a constant juggling act. I had almost no marketing budget, so I pounded the pavement, going door to door with flyers to every business in town while still managing the daily grind. I became obsessed with finding a smarter way to scale my business, devouring books, podcasts, and joining masterminds. Slowly but surely, I started implementing effective business systems, and my venture began to soar. I even launched another business using these same systems, and it went from zero to millions in just 18 months. It was an incredible journey that led me to my true passion: helping other businesses grow.
I was curious about how large companies ideate, launch, and scale, so I ventured into the world of venture capital. I worked with renowned organizations, learned their processes, and collaborated with companies in their portfolios. What I discovered was that the principles of success were universal—large companies simply had proven systems in place.
My own journey is the heart and soul of Lygress. My unyielding commitment to assisting budding entrepreneurs at all stages of growth inspired me to create this platform. Here, my expertise and that of my partners converge to fuel the growth of businesses.
