Short excerpt

I have 30 people at $15K/month burn.

We've been profitable since $20K MRR.

Revenue clues

SalesRobot team has 30 people, burn $15K/month; the author says it has been profitable since $20K MRR; compared to VC-backed competitors 50 people / $500K/month burn; experienced $20K MRR drop in four weeks; error experiment dev time cost about $500, not $50K
Low burn geography (Bengaluru), SEO compounding, Reddit, cold email, organic brand building, intern-driven SEO execution; author highlights 18 months SEO patience and low-cost organizational structure

Summary

The added value of SalesRobot is not higher revenue, but rather why small teams can wait for SEO compound interest: $15K/month burn and $20K MRR starting profits make the cost of failed experiments controllable. It is a typical anti-VC operating sample of "low-cost area + low burn + patient channel".

Research value

Evidence note: High: The author himself disclosed that there are already $1M ARR / flatlining and other previous records that can be crossed; this post is not a complete financial report, but it gives the team burn, profit threshold, MRR retracement and channel advantages; it still lacks the current MRR, revenue background, salary structure, CAC, profit margin and churn
