StartupSac Happy Hour returned to Sacramento on March 26 at Hot Italian in Midtown. Our featured entrepreneurs fielding the questions this month were the co-founders of Webconnex, Eric Knopf and John Russell. Webconnex is a SaaS platform for event registration, ticketing and fundraising. They have over 30,000 customers and have processed billions of dollars of transactions. They’ve achieved their success without raising a cent of venture capital. Though they’re 100% bootstrapped, they compete and win against the biggest, well-funded competitors in the world. They impressed the audience with their perspectives, humbleness, value on their employees, and long-term views and shared some fantastic insights and advice.
