Could you try bringing down those operational costs (even just temporarily)? Also, is your goal just to keep the business operational and not profitable? It sounds like you’ve just been trying to keep the lights on over the years…

Could you get the same ROI with another business?

If it only takes you 8 hours of work per month to profit 20k per year, I’d automate it and keep it forever, especially with the security of a locked contract.
