(Founder Stories) TripAdvisors Kaufer: Crucial Early Decisions Paved The Way For An IPO

Healthy numbers now, but dial back a decade and TripAdvisor was gasping for air. Kaufer says 18-months in "we had no clients, we had no revenue and we were running out of money."Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/T0IQGARnMt4/
