Bootstrapping is amazing, but it’s also hard. And it disproportionality favors young, privileged folks who have fallbacks or savings or consulting businesses, etc. Earnest Capital is hoping to provide another alternative. twitter.com/tylertringas/status/1057290367241019397

I'm relatively new to the world of startup investing, but it's so cool how investing in @earnestcapital lets me indirectly be a part of awesome companies like testimonial.to. It's the perfect antidote to startup FOMO. twitter.com/damengchen/status/1389270703359229952

Just got an investment from @calmfund 🙀🙀🙀
Super excited to build a small Instatus team 🔥
They'll help build monitoring & incident management ✅
And most importantly, take Instatus to infinity and beyond 🚀

2/ I tend to recommend founders bootstrap and focus on generating revenue. Bc once you hit >$10K monthly recurring revenue, you'll be able to unlock the opportunity to raise debt, do equity crowdfunding on platforms and get the attention of alternative VCs, like @earnestcapital.

I'm a big believer in the type of calm companies that @tylertringas and @earnestcapital are helping to create, evangelize, and fund.
In fact, I'm so excited that I decided to make a small angel investment in their new offering: twitter.com/tylertringas/status/1382331003306344452

While fundraising, I stumbled upon the @calmfund. Choose to grow at your own rate? Prioritize work-life balance? Initially, it sounded too good to be true, and we were encouraged to try the traditional Angel/VC route.
However, a year later, I know we made the right choice.

This kind of investment opportunity isn't often open to the public.
If you like @earnestcapital's mission, then you can now invest in that.

Several years later, the spirit of that 15-year-old is still alive and even more immersed in the entrepreneurial landscape. As an LP and mentor with @earnestcapital, I have the privilege of betting on entrepreneurs and a calm way of doing business.

Why Earnest? This merits probably a much longer answer as there are lots of things to consider. But I'll try to boil it down to three things: Terms, People, Timing

I'm a big believer in Micro SaaS and Calm company. For the past 2 years I witnessed the innovation craze ignited by @earnestcapital around funding of small internet company.
I'm happy to make a small angel investment (my first) in their new initiative. twitter.com/tylertringas/status/1382331003306344452

In the never ending debate over whether or not bootstrappers should take funding, I am firmly in the PRO funding camp thanks to the support and guidance of @earnestcapital mentors like @mjwhansen. 🙌
