Why enroll today
Discover how to start, write, grow, and monetize your newsletter step-by-step using our proven system.
Work from anywhere, without a boss, on your own schedule.
Newsletters are for you if you want freedom, flexibility, and mobility. No boss or clients are tracking you down. You only need a laptop and internet connection to make money with a newsletter.
Create an online income – even with a small audience.
You don’t need hundreds of thousands of subscribers. Newsletters with 5,000 to 15,000 engaged subscribers become 6 and 7-figure businesses with the right monetization strategies.
Scale to 7 and 8 figures and beyond
Newsletters are a scaleable business model. Delivering a newsletter, sponsorship, or digital product to 100 people or 1,000,000 people takes the same time.A newsletter business enables you to scale with media, so you don’t need to work more or hire more people to make more money.
Build a business you can sell
Dozens of newsletters have sold for 7, 8, and 9 figures including: Milk Road ($10M exit), The Hustle ($27M exit), Morning Brew ($75M exit), Industry Dive ($525M exit) and many, many more.Newsletters sell for millions to savvy investors who want to own an audience they can sell their products and services to. Even small newsletters with 1,000-10,000 subscribers can sell for $10-$30 PER subscriber.
Stop renting your audience. Become a “List Lord.”
With a newsletter, you own your audience. There’s no algorithm or gatekeeper between your audience and your message. No one can take away your email list.
Share your message. Influence millions.
Why do billionaires like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Rupert Murdock, Laurene Powell Jobs, Marc Benioff, Michael Bloomberg, Carlos Slim, and Warren Buffet all own media companies?The answer: Power and influence. The only way to share your message with millions is by owning media. A newsletter is the best way to start.
Low (or zero) start-up costs.
It costs almost $0 to start a newsletter. You only need a laptop, an internet connection, and a free plan with any ESP (email service provider). There’s no need to raise capital or invest tons of your own money. The costs stay low as you grow, too.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is this for?
This is for people ready to take action by starting and growing their newsletter during the course. If you don’t have a newsletter now, that’s okay! We’ll help you start. If you do, even better. This will help you grow and monetize faster.
What's the time commitment?
You’ll need 2-3 hours to attend the two live sessions per week and 2-3 hours to execute the growth tactics (~4-6 hours per week total)
What time are the live sessions?
All core live sessions are at 12 pm EST. Everything will be recorded. It’s totally fine if you can't attend live.
How long do I have access to the course materials?
You will have access to the course materials FOREVER. This includes all live sessions, video materials, templates, and swipe files.
Do I need to use a specific newsletter tool?
No, but I recommend beehiiv. The tutorials will be focused on beehiiv. We won’t have time to cover tech setup for other platforms. If you use another platform, that’s totally fine. Just make sure you know it well.
Do I need a budget to invest in paid ads?
No, but it’s a plus. We’re spending a week on paid growth in the course. If you want to test ads, you’ll need a minimum budget of $10-$25 per day.
Couldn't I just do this myself with all of the free content out there?
Well... you could. And I encourage you to try it. Read my 100+ free guides on newsletter growth. If that works for you, that’s great! But chances are, you've tried growth on your own before. And between the hours it would take you to aggregate all of the free stuff and the headaches, you would have testing to see what works… This is well worth the investment.
Can this really work for me?
You might be thinking... “sure this works for other people. But my situation is unique”. I can assure you that over the past 5 years, I’ve helped 100+ newsletters grow. No matter your background, experience, goals, or circumstances, this program will help you.
What if I'm not tech-savvy?
You're not alone. We have members of every age, background, and experience level. In the course, I’ll teach you how to do all the technical setup for beehiiv newsletters. However, if you don’t use beehiiv you must know your newsletter platform well. We don’t have time to cover instructions for every ESP.
What if I can't attend the live sessions?
That’s totally fine! We record each session and distribute it with detailed show notes, session transcripts, and everything else you need. This course is designed to be taken live, asynchronously, or both.
Will this help if I already have a large newsletter?
Yes, in fact, you’ll have an advantage. Many of the tactics work even better if you have a large newsletter.
How many newsletter subscribers do I need to join?
None. This program will help you start, grow, and monetize your newsletter — even if you're a beginner.
What if I don’t have a niche or newsletter now?
Most students don’t have a niche or newsletter when they enroll. That’s what the program is for. We help you find a lucrative niche and start your newsletter in week 1 and 2 of the program.
How is the group coaching structured?
There are 30 minutes of group coaching after each of the 12 core live sessions for you to get questions answered, feedback, and personalized advice. That’s 6+ hours total of live coaching.
Is there a payment plan?
Yes, we offer a payment plan through Klarna, where you can pay in 4-10 installments.
What is the refund policy?
There’s a 30-day “no questions asked” money-back guarantee. If you are unsatisfied with the program for any reason within 30 days of the course start date, I will refund your investment, excluding a 10% refund fee, which we use to protect our intellectual property and keep the program limited.

What if I have more questions?
Send me an email at [email protected]. I'll get back to you soon.
