"If you're reading this, you're listed to me on WebSummit 2023 and already probably tired of the fundraising rat race, or maybe you're just curious to know how to build a tech empire from the ground up. Either way, this playbook is your companion for the journey ahead."
"Hey there, Future Empire Builder! You might be wondering why I decided to put this playbook together. Well, let's put it this way: Imagine you have a treasure map, but instead of leading to buried gold, it guides you through the minefields and pitfalls of bootstrapping your own business. That's what this playbook aims to be—a practical roadmap drawn from my own experiences, mistakes, and victories in building a bootstrapped tech empire. Whether you're a seasoned entrepreneur looking for a fresh approach or a newcomer on the cusp of taking the leap, this guide has something for you."
"This playbook is for the go-getters, the dreamers, and most importantly, the doers. If you have a burning idea but find the traditional fundraising model stifling, this is for you. If you're a skilled professional tired of working for someone else's dream, pull up a chair. Or perhaps you're already on your bootstrapping journey but hitting a few speed bumps; you'll find some fresh ideas and 'aha' moments here. In short, if you're someone who believes in the power of self-reliance and the idea that you don't need external funding to make it big, welcome aboard."
