Brothers Mark 20 Years Running a Bootstrapped SaaS

Original: Running a bootstrapped SaaS for 20 years with my brother

The founders of Zamzar, the online file conversion service, have written a retrospective on two decades of running the company bootstrapped as brothers, reporting 766 million files converted to date. The post recounts how they grew the business without outside investment, the challenges of sustaining a small team, and lessons learned from long-term independence.

Why now: Tech communities are drawn to rare long-term bootstrapped success stories as alternatives to venture-funded startups.
