This was the formula for The Blueprint.
www.readtheblueprint.conm
Phase 1: Newsletter (80% real estate agents, with a lot of data points)
Phase 2: Podcast targeting more of what our audience wants.
Phase 3: Digital product monetizing the audience
How to build the next @MorningBrew:
- Write for an underserved B2B vertical
- Focus on 1st party data -- Know everything about your subscribers
- Use @MeetApollo to enrich customer profiles
- Serve targeted ad campaigns at segments of your subscriber list for higher CPMs
- Use @beehiiv to send your newsletter and grow your audience
- Leverage @oceans_xyz talent for growth marketing, finance, and EA help
- Stay as lean as possible. Focus on profit, not revenue

we've got something new up our sleeves........
Creators are businesses. And businesses need operators.
That’s been the thesis all along at @smoothmedia_
Now we’re formalizing our latest service:
The fractional COO for creators.
Couldn’t be more excited to announce that I’ve officially joined @smoothmedia_ as their Head of COO Services.
Excited to join @JKaplan1, @jrothenberg_ & @KinseyGrant in helping creators build next-gen media businesses!

If anybody tells you it's easy to grow a newsletter, they're lying to you.
I reached out to a page I enjoy, @NipseyHoussle to promote my real estate NL readtheblueprint.com with his audience.
He said: "I appreciate the hustle but HBD is for the people."
Mad respect 🤝
It's hard to believe that it's already been a year since I launched @read_blueprint!
After 1 year:
📧 15k subs
🚀 113 sends
🔥 52% OR
🎙 Pod w/ 8k mo downloads
🗣️ Guests @mauricoumansky.+ @jasonoppenheim
🤝 Multiple advertising partnerships
👻 1 amazing halloween costume
We had a vision in our first year to deliver reliable real estate news and actionably advice to help all agents.
The amazing feedback & support we've received has far exceeded our expectations.
We couldn't be more thrilled to embark on our second year & are eager to see what the future holds.
