Did you know that Twitter, Udemy, Groupon, and GitHub all started as side hustles without venture capital? Many aspiring tech entrepreneurs believe that to start a successful tech business means they must risk everything, quit their day job, and seek funding. These and other bootstrapped companies prove that billion-dollar companies can start in home offices and garages on founders' evenings and weekends.
In The 60-Minute Tech Startup: How to Start a Tech Company as a Side Hustle in One Hour a Day and Get Customers in Thirty Days (or Less), serial technology entrepreneur Ramesh Dontha takes lessons from side hustles turned household name companies to reveal the fastest, easiest, and least capital-intensive way to start a tech business. Together with experiences from his own career and those of featured guests from the popular The Agile Entrepreneur Podcast, Dontha lays out a plan for any aspiring tech entrepreneur to start a side hustle that is profitable from the beginning and has a chance to become something great. The 60-Minute Tech Startup shows side hustlers how to:

Prepare for objection-handling
Use the best ways to get referrals and grow organically
All of the above and more in just one hour a day for one month. Whether you just want to start a side hustle and keep your day job or go all-in and build a high-growth tech company, The 60-Minute Tech Startup offers proven steps to start a tech company today, get paying customers this month, and reap the rewards of business ownership for life.
