Bootstrapping is great, but it's impossible to start a business without putting in personal savings or taking out a loan. We did both when we opened, but all the work was done ourselves like in many other spaces
I'm glad to hear Alex's enthusiasm for the fall, but I wanted to share that we've also been seeing an unprecendented amount of tough financial situations our members are facing - whether it's losing investor money, losing big projects or just being late on payments. The recession is definitely a huge factor - I think while I'd normally agree that there are more entrepreneurs in tough economic times, it's just not the case this time around. In fact, I'm seeing more entrepreneurs turning back toward stable jobs. Anyway, don't want to be all 'gloom and doom' :) Our space has been busy the last couple of weeks and I hope that's a good sign for the fall!
