Live Help Nowby Michael Kansky
Live Help Now is an omnichannel customer support platform founded by Michael Kansky in 2005 as a side project extracted from his dating website's chat feature. After 4 years of hobby development, Michael monetized in 2009 by converting to a freemium model, immediately converting about one-third of his 800 users to paid plans and generating $10,000 MRR. The company grew to $3M ARR by 2017 primarily through organic tactics (review directories, SEO, word-of-mouth) but hit a growth plateau from 2017-2021 due to Michael's tendency to micromanage and split focus across multiple ventures, forcing him to finally hire a CEO and build a proper organizational structure.
