LoopCV: 180k Annual Salary

Loopcv is a tool that helps job seekers get interview opportunities through automation. (There are now many businesses built around this space; it started out as just an interview-matching tool.)

In simple terms, the machine automatically scrapes job postings and HR emails from companies offering those jobs to build a job database. Job seekers can use the product for algorithmic matching and automated applications—they only need to create their resume and set up an application plan.

It mainly serves one side of the market: job seekers who sign up and earn recruitment referral commissions (its primary revenue comes from charging job seekers, though it has diversified significantly since then).

The idea was validated on Reddit, where it gained hundreds of users before the product even launched, and development proceeded relatively smoothly afterward.

Main customer acquisition channels:

SEO: Building backlinks with numerous authoritative sites, plus creating content around recruiting and job searching.

Affiliate marketing: Referral commissions for users who promote the product. Initially, they proactively reached out to YouTubers creating content on job hunting and recruitment, introducing their referral program to secure partnerships.

Additionally, community-driven channels such as Facebook and Reddit are used for user acquisition.
