$2,000 MRR revenue and 100 reviews on App Store!

The growth has been slow as I haven't prioritized any marketing.

My focus lately is still on identifying issues and reducing user churn. Right now it's> 30% which is very high.

There are only ~750 installs per month from AppStore. Forest, for instance, has 400K downloads in December alone. So I had a lot of opportunity and leeway to capture that market.

But progress is progress! Never thought I could reach $2K MRR this soon.

I plan to collaborate with influencers on youtube with affiliate marketing this month. Let's see!

    Hi Philip, thanks for sharing your journey. I see you signed up to Setapp a couple of months before this post. Would you mind sharing how much of the 2k came from there?

    All the best!

      I don't remember. It's been a long time!

    Hi @philipyoungg, did you ever seek out YouTube influencers to promote Session?

    I'm curious, how did you decide which were the right YouTube influencers to contact?

    I'm working on a way for affiliate advertisers to forecast the results of affiliate relationships by viewing stats from YouTubers' prior affiliate promotions.

    Thanks.
