There are many ways to failure, only a few to success. Bootstrap to Billions shows entrepreneurs and managers how to succeed by learning from 28 entrepreneurs who started and built some of the world s great companies, including the world s largest medical device company and the world s largest electronics retailer. Contrary to currently popular belief, entrepreneurs can bootstrap to success. Bootstrap to Billions shows entrepreneurs and managers how these business giants bootstrapped and used alternate financing options to grow. Most of them - about 80% - never got venture capital. These entrepreneurs found their best market, designed the right strategy, developed the organization culture and leadership, and reached the top with capital-efficient strategies to minimize the need for capital. Lack of money did not constrain their growth. Many entrepreneurs may be better off by bootstrapping and alternate financing to build and control their business to create wealth and keep it.
