A self-sustaining process that proceeds without external help. Does this mean that I am essentially a boot strapper or that my company is boot strapped? Either way, the focus is on self sustaining. Although theBSC shows all the signs of an organization withOUT external help (cue the basic beta website and 1 employee company roster), we are far from self sustainable.
Fund raising has been without a doubt the toughest challenge (wait..is a challenge by virtue of its' definition, tough?..the Denglish is really taking over). When companies report that they've received 50M or even a six figure fund from an investor or investment group, my initial thought is that I could do 3x as much with half as much money. There has to be a way to take a small piece of the funding pie. Heck at this point I'd just like to be invited to the party where the pie is being served.
