The founder of a scalable communication platform for businesses, schools, and campaigns launched last June, is looking to sell the platform due to venture capital obligations with a new business. The platform has facilitated over 3 million texts and calls for 157 users, generating $33,000 in revenue, and provides personalized services for larger clients, contributing an additional 9 million communications and $80,000 in revenue. The system leverages third-party APIs and proprietary server technology, with all profits reinvested into the platform. Changes to the platform can be accommodated before its sale, with a development engineer available post-sale at a specific hourly rate. Trademarks and domain names are part of the sale package. The venture's monthly operating costs include server fees, engagement tools, business applications, and hosting services. Marginal costs of operation are described, including per-message and call charges, phone number leasing, and transaction fees. An optional cost of $1,000 per month exists for leasing a shortcode beyond a specified date. The founder welcomes questions from potential buyers interested in acquiring the business's assets.
