#113 Bootstrapping Startups Secrets: How To Scale A Mental Health Tech Startup (WITHOUT Investors)

from The Mary Poppins of Startups Show · host Naily Makangu [Athena Leaders]

Improving employees mental health has been linked to increasing productivity. However, it's not always that simple to know what to do, let alone how much it might cost. In this episode, we'll talk to Ngozi Cadmus, CEO of Happiworkers and Frontline Therapist, to discover how her startup is planning on keeping teams healthy and thriving. Ngozi will also let us in on her bootstrapping secret and why focusing on "SALES FIRST" rather than "investment first" is a smart "investment - no pun intended" for startup growth. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Like the show!
