How to Fire Yourself from Your Company to Grow

Scaling Businesses During Unprecedented Times
Sama Jashnani
One year after graduating college, I moved to New York to start my company. I made many mistakes and learned from them quickly. I hustled hard, went to many networking events and surrounded myself with people who are smarter than me. Currently, I raised funding for DownToDash which we are currently generating monthly revenue and scaling the app (even during this unprecedented time). One of my favorite tactics is that I strategically collaborate with other founders and event organizers to scale fast, in a cost-effective manner.
In this chat, I want you to walk away with:
- How to raise funding for your startup
- How to market your company with minimal resources and funds
- How to build your network
