Episode description
So you want to start a business? No problem. You want to bootstrap it yourself? Okay. You want to position yourself directly against huge competitors and play them at their own game? You've got guts!
Laura Roeder launched MeetEdgar - a social media scheduling tool - in 2014 and was up against giants like Hootsuite (who have raised over $300m in funding). So how can a small bootstrapped company compete? Laura spoke at BoS Europe 2018 with her Four P Points for success.
