How much is GrowSumo doing in MRR?

The company has facilitated and supports over 270,000 partnerships globally across 200 unique customers. GrowSumo has landed deals with big names like Intuit, Drift, Asana, and Buffer early on and has been growing revenue 25% month over month. Swanek did not disclose specifics behind MRR figures, but did note that the company is below $300k in MRR right now and has not achieved profitability yet.
What is GrowSumo’s churn?
Thanks to their ability to close the value loop, GrowSumo has exhibited impressive customer retention thus far. Each month, the company strategically sends invoices that highlight the massive value driven through their platform alongside their associated fee. With this tactic in place, the company has gotten to monthly logo churn below 2%.
When acquiring customers, GrowSumo has not placed a large emphasis on tracking fully-weighted CAC thus far. Swanek did mention however, that customer success is a point of focus for the company and a significant level of human touch is placed on the on-boarding process.
How much has GrowSumo raised?
GrowSumo is a proud Y Combinator alum and has raised more than $1M in outside capital to date. The company has remained extremely capital efficient to this point and has grown to scale with a team of just 20 full-time employees.
Going forward, GrowSumo has its sights on building relationships with global institutional resellers to help transform the way they bring value to market.
