Songbox - finally - breaks $1000 MRR
by Mick
I got my first customer for Songbox back in August 2018. Here we are, two and a bit years later and today I crossed $1000 MRR (£730).
Someone else on here posted the other day that as humans we falsely place significance on certain milestones, and they were absolutely right. Why celebrate $1000 MRR and not $977 or $1014? I guess because we ARE humans and we're wired a little bit funky. However that aside, I NEVER DREAMED I would get to this stage and it just emboldens me.
If I can get to $1000, why not $10,000??
I should add, I've been on IH for my whole journey and I've taken so much feedback and advice from folk here that I really don't know if Songbox would still be a thing if IH wasn't a thing. So thanks to you all!
🥳
Now, back to work.

Man, I remember some of your early posts - IH has changed a lot in that time!
Also, only a couple days after Jordan said to stop worrying about the milestone, you hit it! haha
Haha yeah I totally picked up on that too!
You're climbing the SaaS Ramp of Death!!! Congrats Mick :)
Ha! Never heard that term before but I like it.
Congrats Mick! 🎉🎊
Thanks so much!
Well done Mick. See that curve. That's the elbow of
hockey stick growthforming ;)Haha love your optimism man! love it! We'll see.
Congrats, the beginning is always the hardest. Keep going!
Thank you
Wow, 2 years invested, that's a lot of patience...I just started my project at the beginning of the year and I already struggle with the motivation due to not being able to attract potential customers.
But anyway, congrats! That's a significant milestone, and it makes it a lot easier to focus on the startup full time.
Thanks. i actually don't think 2 years is a long time to get a business off the ground. Very few businesses get immediate traction. Stick with it!
Alright Mick! That's awesome to see! I challenge you to hit the £1000 mark! That would be funny number converted to dollars :)
Done :-)
Challenge accepted!
Congrats!
Thanks!
Been rooting for ya for a long time. Always appreciate your comments on posts. Congrats, sir!
Thanks man I appreciate that!
That's a big milestone. Congratulations, Mick aka @Primer.
Thank you!
Nice! 🙂
It is! lol Thanks
Im so proud of you. I've been following for abit. I hope you reach the 10k mrr goal.
Thanks a lot for your support. I too hope I reach that goal!!
Great achievement, keep going!
Thanks a lot.
Congrats, what's your best distribution channel ?
All growth is purely organic. SEO is my only channel.
I wonder what exactly you are talking about. Do you have a blog or articles? I only find the article "Why I built it".
Yeah... basically I don't do anything. I don't blog, I don't do social media. It's all as I said "organic".
The only thing i did do was put a lot of time and effort into my homepage. I've been told that the copy on their is great. But that was after a LOT of refinement.
This is really cool, maybe it's the main ingredient (besides the product itself).
That's a great product idea. I'm not even a musician and my impulse is to say "Please, take my money!"
haha that's a brilliant comment. Thanks so much!
Good job!
Well done! This is awesome
I really like your long-term, patient approach, and your enthusiasm. Especially as someone who runs a slow-growing blog/membership site =] Congrats to you.
Congratulations Mick! This is the best. 💪
Absolutely! If you can make 1K you can make 1M! Good luck!
Well done - great to hear. This is also quite inspirational!
Cheers!
