Systeme.io is a bootstrapped, all-in-one marketing platform for entrepreneurs and creators, offering sales funnels, email marketing, membership sites, and affiliate program management. Founded by Aurelien Amacker and publicly launched in early 2018, the company is headquartered in Lisbon, Portugal and is 100% founder-owned with no outside investors.

The company grew from roughly 400 paying customers and approximately 10,000 euros in monthly revenue at launch to 8,000 paying customers and more than 400,000 dollars in monthly revenue by mid-2021. Annual revenue rose from 1.5 million euros in 2019 to 3 million euros in 2020, a 100% year-over-year increase, and Amacker projected the business would reach approximately 5 million euros (close to 6 million dollars) in 2021.

Systeme.io is profitable, generating between 80,000 and 100,000 euros per month at the bottom line. Seventy percent of sales originate from a lifetime affiliate commission program paying 40% per sale, with more than 600 affiliates earning commissions in a single month and total affiliate payouts exceeding 100,000 dollars per month.

The company's annual revenue trajectory shows consistent acceleration. Systeme.io generated 1.5 million euros in 2019, grew 100% to 3 million euros in 2020, and was tracking toward the 5 million euro target in 2021. At launch in early 2018, the business was generating approximately 10,000 euros per month from its first roughly 400 customers.

Amacker attributed the strong 2020 growth in part to COVID-19 tailwinds. The business has been growing since its 2018 launch without external capital, funding expansion entirely from operating cash flow.

Founder / CEO

Aurelien Amacker

Founder

Aurelien Amacker, 41 years old at the time of the interview in July 2021, founded systeme.io and serves as its chief executive. He began selling online courses about web marketing in the French market in 2010, building an email list of approximately 25,000 subscribers and generating between 20,000 and 30,000 euros per month in course revenue before pivoting to software.

Amacker is not a developer. His first attempt to build the product in 2016 involved contracting a development firm in Morocco, which cost him approximately 30,000 euros and a year of time before he terminated the engagement. He subsequently found developers on Upwork and built the product through 2017, moving his own business onto the platform before the public launch in early 2018.

Amacker is based in Lisbon, Portugal, where he purchased a home for 1.4 million euros in early 2021. He manages a fully remote team of 60 people using Slack and Time Doctor. Net worth was not discussed directly in the interview; Amacker owns 100% of a business generating roughly 80,000 to 100,000 euros per month in profit, but no formal valuation has been established.

Customers

Systeme.io had just over 8,000 paying customers as of July 2021. Average revenue per user differs by market: French-market customers pay approximately 32 euros per month, while English-market customers average approximately 50 euros per month, roughly 50% more.

The company launched a freemium plan approximately three months before the interview, which Amacker said was reducing churn by giving prospective customers more time to experience the product before committing to a paid plan. Pricing details beyond the per-user averages were not discussed in the interview.

systeme.io Business Model

Systeme.io operates a subscription SaaS model with monthly billing. The company generates revenue across French and English-speaking markets, with blended ARPU of approximately 32 euros in France and 50 euros in English-speaking markets. With 8,000 paying customers and those ARPU figures, implied monthly recurring revenue aligns with the reported 400,000-plus dollars per month.

Seventy percent of sales originate from the company's affiliate program, which pays 40% lifetime commissions. Systeme.io paid more than 100,000 dollars per month to affiliates at the time of the interview, making the affiliate payout the single largest operating expense. More than 600 affiliates earned at least 10 dollars in commissions in the month prior to the interview. Amacker described this structure as effectively converting customer acquisition cost from a fixed expense to a variable one tied directly to closed sales.

The business is profitable. Amacker stated the company takes between 80,000 and 100,000 euros per month to the bottom line, which he described as approaching his personal financial goal of 100,000 euros per month in profit. Monthly gross churn was 8% at the time of the interview, down from a prior range of 9% to 10% before the freemium plan launched. Amacker noted that churn is higher among newer customers and lower among those who have been on the platform for a year or more, though he did not provide a cohort-specific churn figure. The company employs two salespeople, both focused on coaching programs in the French market rather than on the core SaaS product, which Amacker described as a low-touch business.

“Aurelien Amacker: It was like nine to 10%. Now we've got lower. It's getting closer to 8% because we launched a freemium plan three months ago [April 2021]. With freemium, people have more time to actually experience the product, so the churn goes down.”

systeme.io Employees & Team Size

Systeme.io had 60 total employees as of July 2021. The engineering team consisted of 6 engineers, a figure Amacker noted had doubled over the prior year from 3 developers. The company previously operated with only 3 developers for an extended period before expanding the team.

The company is fully remote. Amacker uses Slack for team communication and Time Doctor for time tracking. Payroll is managed by his wife, with employees submitting invoices, a process Amacker acknowledged was operationally complex across multiple countries. The team includes 2 salespeople focused exclusively on coaching programs in the French market.

systeme.io employs approximately 185 people as of 2024, up from 105 in 2023, including 5 sales reps that carry a quota.
