RepeatMD – a SaaS company leveraging Inbound Revenue to increase sales for aesthetic and wellness practices – recently announced it had secured $50 million in Series A funding, including a $10 million debt facility from Silicon Valley Bank. This funding round marks a significant milestone in RepeatMD’s mission to deliver superior revenue efficiency to growing practices and to enhance their patients’ experience.
The funding round was co-led by Centana Growth Partners and Full In Partners with participation from PROOF and marks an exceptional growth period for RepeatMD following its seed financing round just nine months ago from Mercury Fund – who also participated in the Series A.
The medical industry is also in a period of massive growth as providers seek to add aesthetic and cash-based treatments to their practices. And in the U.S. alone, the med spa market is expected to hit $19 billion this year while the global aesthetics market reached $99 billion in 2021 and is forecasted to grow to nearly $332 billion by 2030. Traditionally, practices have relied on in-person consultations and ad hoc marketing campaigns – as they lacked modern software solutions and e-commerce tools to attract new customers and drive repeat business.
RepeatMD was launched in October 2021 by Phil Sitter. And the initial idea for RepeatMD was a white-label mobile rewards program designed to help practices grow their cash business through easily accessible online sales and treatment education.
The rapid success of this initial platform revealed the widespread need for revenue automation in the aesthetics and wellness space throughout the entire buyer journey. And in response, RepeatMD launched their proprietary Inbound Revenue Platform, combining the best of loyalty, e-commerce, and patient financing solutions into a unified patient experience that provides practices with a new source of automatically generated revenue.
Currently, RepeatMD offers turnkey software solutions to over 2,500 medical, aesthetic, and wellness practices across all 50 states, including med spas, dermatologists, plastic surgeons, weight loss clinics, OBGYNs, and many others, with nearly 700,000 registered users on its platform. And RepeatMD has undergone explosive growth in the past year, marking a +2,519% increase in Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) revenue and an +130% increase in SaaS revenue. The company has forged partnerships with the largest medical and aesthetic laser manufacturers, including Alma Lasers, Sciton, and Cynosure.
This funding round will be used to grow RepeatMD’s network of strategic partners, provide further product enhancements, and integrate AI to amplify the patient shopping experience further while scaling its Inbound Revenue Platform.
