About the monetization of the newsletter

Monetized via sponsorships. When I first monetized it in September, I made ~$400/mo from inbound sponsors for 5 months. Since then, I haven't focused on sponsorships, so my average revenue is skewed.

Weaknesses

• No premium tier (yet) so revenue is dependent upon finding sponsors

Strengths

• Strong and growing niche

• Enthusiastic audience

• Perfect audience for sponsors — founders with money in hand

• Easy to write — just aggregate listings

• Grows on autopilot via recommendation engine

• Many opportunities for new revenue channels

Opportunities

Subscriber growth has been from the recommendation engine that I built early on. To grow, I would consider building the recommendation engine further, becoming active on social media and communities, partnering with other creators/influencers, and ads.

Reason for selling

Not enough time to do it justice.

Action required to keep newsletter working?

If you use an VA like me, it'll take you less than an hour — just edit, add your voice in the intro, and publish. You can likely contract my VA, who already knows the process. If you don't want to use a VA, you'll need to collect (or scrape) the data.
