Brett Owens: Self-Funded Versus Getting Investors

The SaaS entrepreneur and self-proclaimed psycho, Brett Owens, joined us for a 2-part episode about his origins as an entrepreneur, the lessons learned in his numerous SaaS startups, and why he prefers self-funding over seeking out investors. This episode was all about Brett’s journey of self-funding each of his startups and why he prefers to not get outside investors, unless it’s needed. We get into the nitty gritty of what the first year is like, how much of a nest egg Brett thinks is adequate, how many startups waste time/resources, and the dangers of getting outside investment money. We obviously know that outside investment is sometimes needed and, in many cases, extremely helpful. We don’t want this to come off as a podcast telling you that it’s bootstrap or bust. What we DO want to let people know is, that looking for funding, just to have funding, can absolutely be your demise, and we hope to provide a realistic view of what it looks like to self-fund. Brett’s three self-funded, successful companies have given him valuable insight on this topic, and we are happy to share that insight with our listeners.
