Moving forward, we re currently burning through about $45/month to keep our software operational. As we grow our customer base, that number will also scale as will the work involved to support and add new features to ofcoursebooks. But still, at $45/month and $1,125 to start the company, means that even if we don t make another dollar, we can stay operational for 20+ years. Entrepreneur Magazine June 10, 2016
