Let's say your writing is great

You're already showing up. You send messages, some people read, some reply.

But under the surface, a few things feel off:

  • When someone asks "Is this working?", you improvise.
  • You're tracking numbers, but they don't clearly tell you what to do next.
  • Monetization feels like a risk: move too fast and you break trust, move too slow and you leave money on the table.
  • Internally, no one can say in one sentence what the newsletter is really for.

Most newsletters don't fail because the ideas are bad.
They fail because there's no clear plan for what happens next.

The real cost of winging it

When you don't have a system:

Expectations drift. Leadership, collaborators, and you all quietly expect different things from the newsletter.

Metrics get weaponized. Numbers become a debate instead of a shared diagnostic.

Money feels dangerous. Every monetization idea feels like a gamble instead of a logical next step.

Your time gets chewed up. You're rebuilding the plan every few weeks instead of running a playbook.

These don't just slow growth. They quietly erode your confidence.
You'll find yourself constantly asking – "is this is working?"

What would change if the system was clear?

Imagine – 60 days from now:

  • You can describe what the newsletter is, who it's for, and what it's meant to do (and everyone else can repeat it).
  • You track 4 to 6 numbers that actually inform decisions, not dashboards full of noise.
  • You know exactly which lever to pull first when something dips.
  • You have a realistic plan for monetization that doesn't feel like betrayal.
  • The "ops" side of the newsletter runs on simple rhythms, so writing gets your best energy.

You don't need to become "a metrics person."
With an operating model, the hard thinking becomes easier,
and challenging parts become joyful.

The Newsletter Method is for you if:

  • You send something on a rhythm (even if it's inconsistent)
  • You take your newsletter seriously (whether it's the whole business or part of one)
  • You're making decisions about positioning, metrics, or monetization and keep second-guessing yourself
  • You'd rather have a system than continue improvising

It's not for people who want a "quick win" or who see newsletters as a side project they'll abandon if things get hard.

What you get

The Newsletter Method is a two-part system: the Guide and the Toolkit. You don't use one without the other.

The Newsletter Method Guide

The Guide

150–200 pages covering Positioning, Measurement, and Monetization

The Newsletter Method Toolkit

The Toolkit

26 tools across 100+ pages designed to implement the frameworks

Three systems, one method

Each system is designed to answer a specific question:

1

Positioning: What is this for?

Most newsletters drift because no one can clearly explain what they're for. Positioning locks down who you serve, what you deliver, and why it matters more than the alternatives.

What's inside

Reader Insight Canvas: Map exactly who you're writing for and what they're actually trying to do.

Format Selector: Pick the format that matches your strengths and goals, not what worked for someone else.

Newsletter Strategy Stack: Align your entire operation so positioning isn't just words on a page.

Value Proposition Builder: Craft a statement that holds up when someone asks, "Why should I care?"

2

Measurement: Is this working?

You're drowning in metrics that don't tell you what to do next. Measurement gives you 4 to 6 numbers that actually matter and a framework for acting on them.

What's inside

Metrics Hierarchy: Separate signal from noise and know which numbers to watch.

Performance Diagnostic: Spot where things break before they show up in revenue or churn.

Benchmarking Guide: Know what "good" looks like for your type of newsletter.

Dashboards That Don't Lie: Build reporting that informs decisions instead of starting arguments.

3

Monetization: How does this make money?

Monetization shouldn't feel like a betrayal. This system gives you a decision framework that protects trust while building sustainable revenue.

What's inside

Revenue Model Selector: Choose the right model based on your audience, format, and goals.

Trust Preservation Framework: Monetize without breaking what makes the newsletter valuable.

Pricing Strategy Canvas: Set prices that reflect value and don't leave money on the table.

Launch Sequencing Tool: Know exactly when and how to introduce monetization.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a course?
No. There are no videos, cohorts, or live calls. It's a strategic Guide + Toolkit designed so you can implement on your own time.
Can I buy just the templates or just the Guide?
No. The templates are designed to work with the frameworks, and the frameworks are written to be implemented through the templates. Separating them would reduce the value you get.
Is there a subscription or ongoing fee?
No. This is a one-time purchase with lifetime access to the Guide, Toolkit, and updates to the core frameworks.
Will there be a payment plan?
Not right now. The price is designed to be a single decision that doesn't require a big approval process.
What about updates?
When the core frameworks evolve, you'll get updated versions. If we ever add entirely new systems or major expansions, existing customers will hear about it first.
What if my newsletter is still early?
That's fine. The Method is built for operators who take their newsletter seriously, whether you're just getting past the "we started this" stage or stuck at a plateau.
Is this only for big newsletters?
No. It's for people who take their newsletter seriously, regardless of size.
What if my newsletter is part of a brand, not my whole business?
Perfect. Many of the patterns came from newsletters that support a larger product, service, or company (not newsletters as the entire business).
