Episode 84 of Bootstrapped Business with Fexingo dives into TinySeed, the first startup accelerator designed specifically for bootstrapped SaaS companies. Launched in 2018 by Rob Walling and Einar Vollset, TinySeed took a radical approach: instead of the standard three-month, equity-heavy model, it offered a year-long remote program with $120,000 in funding structured as a revenue-based note. Lucas and Luna explore why this model appealed to founders who wanted growth without VC pressure, how it evolved from a podcast conversation into a real fund, and what its portfolio outcomes reveal about the viability of alternative financing. They discuss concrete examples like ConvertKit and Drip, and unpack the numbers behind TinySeed's investment thesis. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the intersection of bootstrapping and institutional capital. #BootstrappedBusiness #TinySeed #SaaS #RobWalling #EinarVollset #StartupAccelerator #RevenueBasedFinancing #IndieFounders #Bootstrapping #ConvertKit #Drip #AlternativeFunding #RemoteWork #LeanStartup #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #ProfitFirst Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
