It's really hard to do.

1007 How Outbound.io Grew to $30k MRR Before Exiting to ZenDesk

So we have an API integration.

And everybody, of course, wants to start off, no salespeople.

We don't need any salespeople.

And at first it was cheap.

1007 How Outbound.io Grew to $30k MRR Before Exiting to ZenDesk

And so we were self-serve.

1007 How Outbound.io Grew to $30k MRR Before Exiting to ZenDesk

And then we realized over time we need to be more sales-assisted.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
1007 How Outbound.io Grew to $30k MRR Before Exiting to ZenDesk

And now we're actually trying to move it back towards self-serve.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
1007 How Outbound.io Grew to $30k MRR Before Exiting to ZenDesk

So we're trying to lower the price point.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
1007 How Outbound.io Grew to $30k MRR Before Exiting to ZenDesk

That's always been our dream is that we can get this product out there and we can give it to everyone.

At different levels of sophistication.

1007 How Outbound.io Grew to $30k MRR Before Exiting to ZenDesk

But we started off, you know, and you were paying, I think when we started off, we launched, it was under a hundred bucks a month for our first couple of customers.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

And now, you know, it's, it's definitely risen to at least a few hundred dollars a month for, for most businesses that are using us.

And some of them are paying us much more than that.

1007 How Outbound.io Grew to $30k MRR Before Exiting to ZenDesk

Yeah.

I mean, it, you know, it varies by, it varies by industry and it varies by use case.
