About this listen

In Bootstrap Empire Natalie Holloway, cofounder of the hit fitness equipment brand, Bala, delivers the ultimate guide to successfully transforming your best business idea into a thriving enterprise. The book is a start-to-finish playbook for building a brand that rises above the competition and the noise, explaining the mindset you need to develop, the mistakes you must avoid, and giving you the tools you need to succeed. You'll learn how to pitch, budget, finance, market, and hire for your new company.

Holloway relies on the tried-and-tested methods she used to grow Bala from an initial $5,000 investment to a fitness juggernaut doing $30 million in annual sales. The author shares the insights she gained from building a company that caused a five-way bidding war on the hit show Shark Tank.

You'll also discover:

  • A comprehensive roadmap to growing your new company
  • Hands-on techniques for bootstrapping your business, with or without existing funding, and strategies for demolishing common obstacles to success
  • Specific tips for how to conduct early-stage marketing, knowing when to start hiring, how to pitch effectively, and how to take advantage of momentum

Perfect for aspiring entrepreneurs and founders, Bootstrap Empire is a must-listen guide for everyone interested in finding the most effective and efficient way to entrepreneurial success.
