ADVICE

Stop Being Everywhere Early

  • Focus on one platform and one audience channel early instead of spreading thin across many newsletters and social platforms.
  • Expand later from a strong single-channel base to transfer audience more easily.
ANECDOTE

Paid Newsletter Versions Failed

  • Josh experimented with paid versions of his newsletter and found paid extras rarely perform well.
  • He learned people want different products, not simply more of the same newsletter content.
ADVICE

Test Ads; They Can Help Readers

  • Don't delay monetization assumptions; test classified ads or relevant offerings early because they can serve your audience and pay.
  • Survey readers before assuming they hate ads; Josh found 90% were okay with ads or would buy one.
