MDBootstrap - an ugly story about making the first million

Hi guys,

Do you think is there still place for ugly business stories in the sugary start-up world?

By "ugly stories" I mean these without investors, conferences, government subsidies, crazy start-up events, travels to Silicon Valley and embellished photos for Insta.

Yes, this is one of these stories.

We established our company in June 2016.

11 months later we earned our first million.

However, this is not-so-typical success story. Despite a happy ending, it is full of doubts, failures and wrong decisions.
