Somebody recently asked me a question that what is a bootstrapped company so , I thought that many people out there doesn't know about a bootstrapped company. So here's a quick information, A bootstrapped company is a company who's equity is completely acquired by its owner. This means that the company has not raised funds or failed to get any funds and the company is running by the money which belongs to its owner , the owner may or may not have taken loan but the entire equity of the company is with the owner this type of company are called bootstrapped.
