I've almost been using beehiiv for two years now, and in that time they've been stacking ways to monetize on the platform. Here's the main ways you can make money from beehiiv currently: 1. Subscription model: Offer a premium tier with exclusive content and potentially access to a community, expect around 0.5-2% conversion rate 2. Sponsorships: beehiiv's own ad network makes it super easy to get sponsors. With my 10K subscribers and 60% open rate, I'm averaging about $25 per main sponsored ad and $10 for a secondary ad per send. And with sponsorships I source myself I'm making around $200 per send. 3. Affiliate marketing: I include affiliate links for relevant products/services, in my case website marketplace listings on Flippa. 4. Digital products: You can create one-off products such as ebooks and courses. 5. beehiiv Boosts: I earn $2-3 per new subscriber I refer to other newsletters through the Boost program. 6. Consulting: I offer 1:1 calls to subscribers, which has led to a few high-paying referrals and clients. The key has been diversifying and experimenting to see what resonates with my audience. What monetization strategies are working for you on beehiiv? Any tips to share?

As an investor in beehiiv, and user, you know what I'm going to say, but here's what perplexity says: Beehiiv is generally more affordable and better suited for content creators focused on newsletters and building an audience, offering features like integrated referral programs and a built-in website. ConvertKit excels in advanced automations, integrations, and selling digital products, making it ideal for creators who prioritize complex email marketing strategies and selling courses or coaching services.

Over the years I've used pretty much every newsletter platform. I started on Mailchimp, then moved to Drip, then to Convertkit (now Kit), then to Substack and now I'm publishing on beehiiv. These platforms offer a range of features such as easy publishing tools, monetization options, subscriber management, analytics, and customizable templates, with the best choice depending on your specific needs, audience size, and growth goals. For me, beehiiv is now so far out in front in terms of: More detail in my post on reddit here

Spinning up a weekly newsletter for one of our sites and will be working with a contractor to produce/curate the content. I was wondering if anyone had suggestions/preferences on how to best manage the newsletter production (like Trello, etc). What software/processes does everyone use?
