Traction
We've grown into profitability with $4.2M ARR
Traction since May 2020
Since COVID hit we have bootstrapped our growth incredibly fast at around ~15% MoM. And although we were burning ~$60k a month in mid-2022 we have now pushed to $15k per month of profitability without a single layoff. Something we are incredibly proud of.
Our metrics
The standard growth metrics that you see when talking about sales & growth efficiency stack up really well for us. We have phenomenally low CAC and a very strong CAC:LTV and payback period. Usually, when efficiency metrics are this strong it means you should be investing more heavily in growth. Which we are excited to do.

“Working with Athyna has been incredible! It's been so great working with the team, to not only make sure we found an A grade candidate, but also ensure that they were onboarded correctly and stay with us for the long run. Thanks Athyna!"

Now that I don't have to be in my email half the day, I got way more time back and that's allowed me to grow the business to a level that otherwise would not have been able to. Its also given me time back to improve my quality of life outside the business as well.
