How Working with Freelancers Can Drastically Reduce Your Startup's Burn Rate
Hello and welcome to my first post of 2024!
As the new year starts, filled with its unique challenges and opportunities, I find myself reflecting on the journey that many startups, perhaps including yours, are currently navigating. If you're among those who've successfully raised between $500K and $1.5M (or still bootstrapping) in this tricky fundraising climate, you might now be facing the sobering reality of a downturn in further capital raising.
It's a pivotal moment, one that demands creativity and resilience. In this article, we'll delve into how embracing the world of freelancers can be a game-changer for your startup, significantly reducing your burn rate while steering you toward being cash flow positive.
