Obby's services are aimed at a broad client base that includes individuals seeking personal development as well as organizations looking for bespoke training solutions.

The company serves customers across multiple geographical markets, emphasizing accessibility for learners from urban centers to more remote areas throughout the UK. Obby generates revenue through a transactional structure that encompasses direct-to-consumer sales of its courses and learning materials. Clients can book individual classes or purchase learning kits, with transactions typically occurring via their online platform. Pricing structures are established based on course type, duration, and content delivery method, which may include both one-time payments for individual classes and potential subscription models for ongoing learning.

The company’s revenue is bolstered by its partnerships with skilled educators, creating a marketplace where instructors can offer their expertise. This collaborative approach allows Obby to provide a wide array of educational opportunities, contributing to its overall financial performance. Following the Angel funding round in October 2017, Obbyco Ltd. aims to leverage the GBP 250 thousand raised to enhance its product offerings and expand its market reach.
