#13: Bootstrap your startup like a boss by Verena Hubertz, Co-Founder of Kitchen Stories
ABOUT THE EPISODE:
If you are an entrepreneur you know how straining the whole process of building a startup can be, especially financially. But there are many ways to build something without fundraising straight away.
An amazing example is Kitchen Stories. Co-Founders Verena and Menting were straight out of business school when they decided to launch an app to help everyone learn how to cook. They had no coding skills, no particular cooking ones either. They had never started a company before and of course had no way to get money. So they did what they had to do: roll up their sleeves and learn everything from scratch. Fast-forward 10 months after the launch: the app already had millions of downloads and served 120 countries. And they did it with zero marketing spending. Kitchen Stories has since grown to over 15M users with top-class VCs like Cherry Ventures and Point9 on board.
So we invited Verena at The Family to share her secret sauce with us, the one that helped them become the largest food publisher on the App store practically overnight.
