InkRevenue
Pick a vertical where professionals have money and problems. AI handles the content. Sponsors pay $2k–$10k per placement. You own the list.
Commercial real estate investors. Med-spa owners. Independent pharmacists. Franchise operators. Go where professionals have purchasing power and unsolved problems.
Research, draft, format. AI handles the heavy lifting. You curate and add the insight that makes subscribers stay. Two issues per week, consistently.
LinkedIn, Reddit, cross-promotions, podcast guest spots. The first 5,000 subscribers require genuine effort. After that, compounding does the work.
Cold-pitch sponsors at 5,000 subscribers. Three placements per issue at $2k–$10k each. Raise rates as you scale. The backend grows without proportional effort.
3 sponsors per send x $3k avg x 8 sends = $72k. Add a paid tier at $29/mo x 1,000 members = $29k. Total: ~$101k/month.
No algorithm changes. No platform risk. No rented audience. Every subscriber is a direct line to a professional who chose to hear from you. That is the most defensible asset in media.
InkRevenue builds the infrastructure to turn niche expertise into recurring sponsor revenue, powered by AI, scaled by consistency.
