Quotes
“Bootstrappers should focus on validating their solutions, getting the right idea, and making sure they understand what solutions will actually solve the problem, build it well, and revalidate-rebuild again with their customers for the first year or so in the bootstrap lifecycle, and then you market and bring a lot of users into the funnel” - Fed
“Personal brand creation for bootstrappers or indie hackers is an incredible tool and a great option for most if not all bootstrap founders” - Fed
“Being a startup founder is tough. Being a bootstrap startup founder is even tougher and it can be so lonely if you’re doing it alone and so doing it with others and having people support you is incredible motivation that will keep you in it for the long run” - Fed
“Leveraging online communities can be so powerful” - Fed
“If you spend on ads to get your initial customers, unless you have a bunch of cash to burn, it can feel like burning cash” - Fed
