Greg Gianforte's Talk on Bootstrapping

Greg, the founder/CEO of RightNow and author of the new book, Bootstrapping Your Business, recently gave a talk at a TiE Institute event in Santa Clara. You can download a pdf (2MB) of the talk and view it on the website.

To EVERY bootstrapper (and entrepreneur thinking about starting a company): WATCH THIS - and watch it twice! It will be the best use of an hour (or 2) of your time. Greg makes a clear and convincing case for Bootstrapping and a devastating case against the VC/investor-focused approach to starting companies. He also outlines the simple, yet powerful rules of bootstrapping with a fun quiz at the end to drive his points home.

I'm looking forward to reading Greg's book and will post my reactions.

I'm bootstrapping my young company
Personal Pediatrics, a custom solution for children and pediatricians to the woeful healthcare system in place today. My family could add a chapter or two in the bootstrapping archives, for sure... We would welcome tips on implementing our IT network, any great online resource for outsourced field IT?? Thanks, Natalie Hodge MD The Pediatrician of the Past and Future...Today. St. Louis
