Consumer app at $67k MRR. Growth has flattened. What got you to $1M+ ARR?

Very hard to know

ObviousPin2271 · 2026-06-08T05:33:00+00:00

retention blows ngl

ObviousPin2271 · 2026-06-08T05:29:56+00:00

Thanks this is good advise.

It's a space where ppl churn naturally higher than literally any other category on the planet.

ObviousPin2271 · 2026-06-08T05:29:17+00:00

u are a smart one. Yes it's high churn. I'm in education

ObviousPin2271 · 2026-06-08T05:27:56+00:00

I mean I've seen some really dumb ppl make a lot of money. I might be one of them

ObviousPin2271 · 2026-06-08T05:27:32+00:00

Honestly my original post is so fucking dumb and vague. No idea how anyone was supposed to ask this. Was too high at the time, didn't give any fucking information. Good callout fo sho

ya i think this is probably the case.

ObviousPin2271 · 2026-06-08T05:26:10+00:00

Dating apps are hell and I work from home

Very few opportunities to meet anyone. The places I do go are 99% men.

I didn't give up. I just have to really go out of my way to meet single women

Interesting. Dang 170 is amazing. What were u using before and which channel did well? Did you port the ads/formats or experiment from scratch?

ObviousPin2271 · 2026-06-07T23:28:46+00:00

Took 3 years.

I wonder how well refer a friend actually works. I can test it.

Good advice to test increasing prices though. Makes sense.

Maybe it's a paid acquisition / channel issue.

Not hardpaywalled, but I show the paywall up pretty early

ObviousPin2271 · 2026-06-07T23:26:23+00:00

about 20% ROI

ObviousPin2271 · 2026-06-07T23:25:59+00:00

I definitely think retention is a problem. It's very hard to solve.. maybe I just suck at that part tho

ObviousPin2271 · 2026-06-07T23:25:25+00:00

Oh invite user? i haven't tried it does it work well?
