23M aspiring writer and a newbie developer - I’ve been in the game of writing for a few years but nothing really seemed to work. I consistently hit brick walls and made a total of 0 dollars from the articles, and affiliates because of the lack of marketing and SEO awareness.
Until last night, I launched a Newsletter called Thoguhts (A weekly newsletter on how to improve oneself physically, emotionally, and psychologically. yeah basically self-improvement ideas) and hit $8 MRR within one month.
Still haven’t gotten off the high, this is not my first internet dollar hit but it is so different from others because I did all the hard work rather than the platform marketing ppl’s work on advertising.
Big learning from my marketing efforts - specific communities really matter–What people I can reach, then what problems do they have that I can solve, and if I can solve it how can I make money with it?
How did you market your newsletter? You already had an audience base?
Congratulations this is such milestone. The first internet earning always breaks so many mental blockers. I remember i used to think all these educators showing how to make money online were just trying to scam me out of mine
