October 21, 2021  ,  No comments


There’s so much buzz around startups raising VC money, while IMO the truly impressive companies are the ones that reached unicorn status without raising a dollar.They show that it's possible to build great businesses while retaining full control over the company. Here are 5 great examples:MAILCHIMPThe email marketing and automation tool bootstrapped its way until it recently got acquired by Intuit for $12B.Founder: Ben ChestnutFounded in: 2001Funding: 100% BootstrappedValuation: $12 BillionSHUTTERSTOCKJon started Shutterstock as a way to share his library of 30,000 photographs. Over the years, it grew to the enormous stock photo service we now today, valued at $4.5B.Founder: Jon OringerFounded in: 2003Funding: 100% BootstrappedValuation: $4.5 BillionMOJANGThe developers of Minecraft never raised a dollar and bootstrapped their way to a $2.5B acquisition by Microsoft.Founder: Jakob PorserFounded in: 2010Funding: 100% BootstrappedValuation: $2.5 BillionATLASSIANThe Australian software company IPOed without ever raising money.Founder: Mike Cannon-Brookes & Scott FarquharFounded in: 2002Funding: 100% BootstrappedValuation: $104.5 BillionLYNDALynda Weinman created a huge content library of tutorials for software developers and designers. She never raised and sold the company to LinkedIn.Founder: Lynda WeinmanFounded in: 1995Funding: 100% BootstrappedValuation: $1.5 Billion​I hope this inspires some of you to consider the (unfortunately) untraditional path of bootstrapping instead of going down the VC route.
