Bootstrappers Breakfast is a group of like-minded founders. Everyone’s building, learning, and helping each other grow. Often we ask attendees to share one thing they learned from this morning’s bootstrapper’s breakfast. Here’s a couple … and please add your own!
“I was surprised by how quickly and precise the advisors and participants assessed my business and provided valuable insights and instructions on site. My business is quite limited in Japan, but it was amazing to meet mutual perceptions and enthusiasm of developing businesses with the participants of various backgrounds across the ocean. Thank you!” – Michelle Yuan
“Today the Bootstrapper community helped walk me around a good process and strategy for maintaining contact with my network and cultivating relationships. Also Sean rightfully pointed out to me that sometimes I oversimplify things when trying to give advise. Something simple and straightforward to me is actually overwhelming and complicated to someone else. That was actually very helpful feedback for me.” – Susie Sahim

One thing I learned at BB last Friday was to de-risk things, especially with startups. Too late. ? It’s almost complete. Because I’m developing a dating app, it’s not guaranteed to make money, like anything of course, but it’s something I believe in and is unique enough that it’ll get attention…or so I hope. Anyways, I think it’s awesome that a group like this exists.
