i'm at $30k a month

Revenue clues

  • The author claims a monthly income of $48,000 1 year ago; now the product is much more complete but about $30K/month; the reply adds only one product, Reelfarm/slideshow automations; churn overall down, but new customers down; heavy users If you turn usage-based, it may change from $195/month to $1K +/month; costs and profits are not disclosed
  • Mainly rely on more marketing; the author replied that it is paid ads and affiliate marketing at the same time, but the investment is not enough; there are automation, schedule, slideshow editor in the product; at the same time, it is at risk of clone/copycat grabbing the results of the material

Summary

This is a valuable anti-growth sample: the product gets stronger and does not automatically bring back historical peaks, Reelfarm drops back from $48k a month to $30k/month, and the author himself points to the reduction of new customers and insufficient marketing. It fits into the section “Product Maturity Does Not Equal Revenue Recovery” as a reminder not only to look at feature velocity, but also to look at distribution frequency, pricing migration, and competitor replication.
