👤 Robin Eissler (30 years selling private jets, then drafted to run her kid's booster club — 18 logins, no software. She built the fix.)🌐 siteLinkedIn

A former private-jet broker built the all-in-one system of record for booster clubs — 2 staff, about $1M ARR.

Will it work? · our read
System of record. Gorgeous founder-market fit, but the market is small, buyers rotate every season, and free tools lurk. Growth is slow by design — durable, not explosive.

Revenue is first-party: Robin Eissler states "approaching $1M ARR" on the Practical Founders podcast — so STATED, not an audited filing (FILED). The $40M+ figure is GMV (money moved through the platform), NOT BoosterHub revenue, and is labeled as such. Founding year (2021) is approximate — paid launch was around early 2022 ($1M GMV in first nine months, per an Oct 2022 PR). The "dies" failure mode and the keyMove counter-view are [our read], grounded in the free rivals and seasonal volunteer-buyer churn the founder describes on air. We never score you.
