Finances
Income
Even though our sponsorship funds from GitHub saw a dip due to their new fee model, Open Collective witnessed a surge of fresh support! Following Mautic Conference Global’s success, we got a healthy inflow from Airmeet ticket sales too! Exciting isn’t it? Three Community Support ticket buyers, you rock – our dependencies will get a $150 boost!
| Description | Amount |
|---|---|
| Income from Open Collective | $11,155 |
| Income from GitHub Sponsors | $445 |
| Mautic Conference Global ticket sales | $3011.05 |
Our financial believers have doubled since last year! Although the sum (minus Acquia’s support) is still low, we’re hopeful! The anticipation is high post the new governance model and General Assembly launch – brace for those numbers to skyrocket!
Expenditure
This month we wrapped up legal obligations related to the transfer of trademarks and domains to Open Source Collective. Plus, we sent some cool hologram sticker packs to our contributors (who’ve hit the ’10 contributions’ mark). And let’s not forget about our global presence – the Mautic Conference Global 2023 was well attended, supported by some paid advertising for which we have received the final invoice.
Our infrastructure expenses have held steady, but next month may shake things up as we bring a new system on board. And as for employment expenses, we’re keeping an eye on Open Collective for those to land.
| Description | Amount |
|---|---|
| Legal services | $154 |
| Infrastructure | $293.97 |
| Swag postage | $9.81 |
| Host fees | $1473.11 |
| Mautic Conference Global Ads | $110.63 |
Contributions
Post-conference, contribution levels have balanced out. That being said, we are nearly twice the level where we were two years ago which is no small feat!
Now we’re into the Mautic 5 General Availability release’s preparation I’m excited to see the spike in activity next month!
Special shoutout to the Education Team and the Marketing Team – they’re looking for more hands on deck. Ready to join in?

Supporters are folks who have had conversations with people directly before they make a contribution, so most likely helping with that process.
This month we had 8 new contributors ? (⬇️ 69.23%) and 77 new members joining the community !? (⬇️ 25.24%)
Usage of Mautic
We are continuing to see steady growth in the number of downloads of Mautic over time from mautic.org/download
We’ve also just implemented a way to track our downloads through Packagist for Composer-based installations. From next month we hope to be able to track trends over time in the same way as the previous chart.
It’s important to note that this chart shows every package within the mautic/* namespace – some are now deprecated and no longer used.
Community Health
We are seeing a return to normal signup rates with Slack thanks to replacing the broken module on the website with a button to the signup link.
We are also anecdotally seeing a growth in interest from local communities to set up their own meetup groups, with two in the pipeline to get started in the coming months.
Conclusion
We’re financially fit, for now. But it’s not merely money – our fantastic community is growing, reaching across the globe.
With the new governance model’s launch soon, we expect a boost – a foundation for grand growth. The promise of a bright future ahead has us fired up! Are you feeling the excitement too?
To quickly summarize, here are some key points:
- We have seen a surge of support from Open Collective, even as sponsorship from GitHub dwindles.
- The Mautic community has seen a double up in financial supporters compared to last year.
- We have almost double the contributions in comparison to two years ago.
- Our monthly expenses are well managed, with some anticipation of increased costs due to new system implementation.
- We are seeing steady growth in Mautic downloads and the community.
