Overview

<p>I started this newsletter in 2020 as a continuation of a newsletter connected to another project of mine.&nbsp;</p><p>By 2024, the newsletter had grown to reach 110,000 subscribers. All emails are collected through forms on my websites, social media, and paid Facebook ads.&nbsp;</p><p>Recently, I removed 30,000 subscribers with zero engagement (they hadn’t opened any emails) to improve overall deliverability and provide better, more honest statistics for advertisers. </p><p><i>Please note that this offer is for the newsletter only and does not include the domain, or main website.</i></p><p><b>Monetization</b></p><p>The newsletter is primarily monetized through flat-rate ads, and some CPC ads from the Beehiiv Ad Network.</p><p>All ad revenue was purely “passive”.&nbsp; I’ve established partnerships with newsletter ad agencies, who sell our ad space at our flat rate. You can continue these partnerships after acquiring the newsletter.</p><p><b>Opportunities</b></p><ol> <li>Since this has been a side project, I’ve never had a sales team and have never directly reached out to advertisers. This is untapped territory, with the potential for around $5000 in monthly ad sales. This estimate is based on our proven pricing model over the last 4 years.</li> <li>While it may offer smaller income than flat-rate ads, you can continue using the Beehiiv Ad Network (mostly CPC ads) and explore their 'Boosts' monetization tool.&nbsp;</li> <li>Affiliate offers: A completely untouched area—I haven’t had enough time to test it.</li> <li>Social media: If you’re good at it (I’m not), you should use it to attract new subscribers.</li> <li>A great use case is to merge this list with your existing list - if it aligns with your subscribers’ interests (travel, lifestyle, money-saving, Asia). In this scenario, you will be acquiring quality subscribers for just $0.75 per email.</li> </ol> <p><b>What you’ll receive</b></p><ul> <li>Email list with 80,000+ subscribers: A clean list with no bounces or unengaged subscribers.</li> <li>1-year old Beehiiv account with complete statistics from all previous sends.</li> <li>Beehiiv Scale Plan (for up to 100,000 subscribers), paid until July 2025 (worth nearly $1,000).</li> <li>Newsletter archive: A Beehiiv-based website with 50+ previous issues.</li> <li>Newsletter template.</li> <li>Paved account.</li> <li>MediaMobilize partnership contact.</li> <li>Archive of previous ads: useful for creating a media kit for advertisers.</li> </ul> <p><b>Not included</b></p><ul> <li>The brand, domain name, and main website</li> </ul> <p>✅ $6,000 in ARR</p><p>✅ 80,000 subscribers</p><p>✅ Business model: Sponsorship</p><p>✅ Built with Beehiiv</p>

Number of Customers

Expenses

$1000\/year Beehiiv (already paid until July 2025).

Business Model

Flat rate ads, and CPC ads.

Target Audience

Business and leisure travelers.

Asking Price Reasoning

Clean list with 80,000 subscribers, Beehiiv Scale Plan paid until July 2025, proven ad sales history, big potential for those with sales team.

Reason for Selling

I want to focus on my main project, and its paid subscription service. Maintaining a large newsletter has become too time-consuming, and I also need additional funds to scale up marketing for my primary project.

Growth Opportunity

I’ve never had a sales team and have never directly reached out to advertisers. This is untapped territory, with the potential for around $5000 in monthly ad sales. You can also merge this list with your existing list - for just $0.75 per subscriber.
