Red Rock in Mtn View: Founder Roadmap Review Plus Regular Roundtable
Details
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.
The other attendees will all be in startups. It will be a chance to compare notes on operational, development, and business issues with peers. Now in our 13th year in Silicon Valley.
In addition to our regular roundtable we are going to do a 15 minute 3x5 card workshop on "Founder Roadmap"
This model allows bootstrappers to define where they are in developing and refining their business. Instead of using the stage of funding (e.g. Seed, A Round, B Round, … ) to characterize the level of maturity a startup has reached, the Founder Roadmap looks at three broad stages:
Validate: Should I pursue this particular idea?
Test: Will customers pay me to solve this problem?
Grow: What is the repeatable business model?
Attendees will determine their stage and write down a key question they need to answer and the next action they will take to get answers. Those who want can share their answers for perspectives and insights from other attendees.
