试试“自力更生”（Bootstrapping）吧。

自力更生是指在没有风险投资、银行贷款或天使投资的情况下开始自行创业。通过自力更生，有抱负的创业者靠辛勤工作，有时候也靠个人储蓄开始启动创业。[请参见欧巴马总统加强对青年创业者的支持]

通过自力更生起家的新创公司通常要经过两个阶段：

• 启动资金: 这是来自个人储蓄或从朋友和家人那里借到刚刚够的资金来支付启动成本。一些创业者从事一个以上的工作，以赚取更多的资金来支持这项新事业。

• 客户的资金: 在第二阶段，创业者将任何来自客户的收入再投入到业务中去促进企业增长。增长通常是缓慢的，因为全部盈利都需要用来支付运营成本以维持企业的生存。

成功的企业家对自力更生的创业模式提供了各种指导，从销售高利润产品与服务，到建立伙伴关系的重要性等面面俱到[请参见英文报道]。如果你仍然不相信自力更生创业的优点，请参考这些依靠自力更生开创的高利润公司的名单[请参见英文报道]。

企业家们向奋斗目标迈进的道路各不相同[请见成功创业的诸多途径]。像将在七月份召开的第六届年度全球创业峰会（Global Entrepreneurship Summit）这样的聚会，将为年轻的创业领袖提供与同行交流想法的机会，帮助他们实现自己的梦想。

Little or no money? Give your business idea a bright future by bootstrapping it

 How do you launch a business with little or no cash and no access to credit?

Try bootstrapping.

Bootstrapping means starting a business with no venture capital, no bank loans or angel investors. With bootstrapping, aspiring entrepreneurs rely on hard work and sometimes personal savings to start a business.

Ventures that begin by bootstrapping usually go through two stages:

• Seed money: This comes from personal savings or by borrowing just enough money from friends and family to cover startup costs. Some entrepreneurs work more than one job to earn additional funds to support the project.

• Customer funding: During this second stage, entrepreneurs reinvest any customer revenues back into the business to further its growth. Growth is usually slow, as any earned money needs to cover operating costs for the business to stay afloat.

Successful entrepreneurs provide guidance on bootstrapping a startup, from selling high-margin products and services to the importance of building partnerships. If you are still not convinced of bootstrapping’s merits, check out this list of highly profitable companies that began with bootstrapping.

Entrepreneurs embark on many different paths toward realizing their goals. Gatherings, like the sixth annual Global Entrepreneurship Summit taking place in July, offer young business leaders the chance to exchange ideas with peers and help make their dreams a reality.
