I got in the ConvertKit Sponsor Network — here’s why you should (or shouldn’t) join.

It might be perfect for you. But maybe not…

I published my first newsletter ad in my 34th edition — one year ago — on September 7th, 2021. (Check it out here)

Since then — and for the next 360 days — I was slowly growing my ad revenue in my newsletter to eventually over $1K per month.

Which looked like…

  • outbound sales
  • dealing with inbound inquiries
  • managing the ad calendar & inventory,
  • dealing with ad creative
  • and even managing payment processing in many situations.

All of that while trying to create + curate a valuable newsletter for my readers.

Long story short: it was a shit-tonne of work.

Rewarding? Yes.

But time-consuming and unsustainable to continue to do on my own. Which is why when ConvertKit announced their Sponsor Network (CKSN) — I was *very* interested.

To get in the program, you just needed to be a ConvertKit customer (🗸), publish at least a weekly newsletter (🗸), and have 10,000 email subscribers — oh.
