Can a million dollar tweet help you scale your business? Definitely. Watch this video to learn 8 important lessons to start and grow a successful business.
On March 19th, 2018, Nathan Barry, the founder of ConvertKit (a bootstrapped email service company that he started in 2013) tweeted the following:
“Yesterday @ConvertKit hit $1m MRR. Thank you so much to everyone who has helped along this journey! We’ve now got an incredible team of 34 supporting 18,872 customers.”
MRR = monthly recurring revenue, which means ConvertKit – 1,902 days since its start – has hit the incredible milestone of $1,000,000 top-line revenue…PER MONTH.
The data is public on Baremetrics in case you wanted to see for yourself:
