Sunnyvale-- Bootstrappers Breakfast

Come join entrepreneurs who eat problems for breakfast. At a Bootstrappers Breakfast® we have serious conversations about growing a business based on internal cashflow and organic profit: this is for founders who are actively bootstrapping a startup.

Holly DeVito, CEO of Sum of All Numbers, will join us May 21st in Sunnyvale to offer a seven minute briefing on "Seven Simple Internal Controls Bootstrappers Should Have in Place." She will also share insights from bootstrapping a service business that needed to establish a trusted advisor relationship and leveraging cloud applications to collaborate more effectively with her clients--offering a specialized expertise while maintaining self-service access to financial records.
