It notes that many successful companies like eBay and Dell initially bootstrapped through self-funding and then raised growth capital after achieving $4-6 million in revenue. Bootstrapping forces companies to listen to customers and focus on sustainability. However, bootstrapped companies face constraints on growth and recruiting as they mature. The document recommends bootstrapped companies lay foundations for managed growth, develop sales scaling, and consider raising external capital when growth opportunities emerge.
