The Best Newsletter Advice
​We Heard In 2025

​

TL;DR of this episode:

We interviewed over 19 successful newsletter creators in 2025.

Safe to say—we got a TON of advice.

Some from names you'll recognize like...

→ Katelyn Bourgoin
→ Anne-Laure Le Cunff
→ Justin Moore

But we also had some lesser-known creators on the podcast who are absolutely crushing it in their own domains—including a guy who's earning $1M ARR with a ~1,500 person email list.

We've compiled 6 of our favorite pieces of newsletter advice in one episode.

Can I ask a small favor?

These episodes are free for you, but they cost time & money to create.

It would go a LONG way if you could like or comment on the LinkedIn post so we can get them in front of more people! (It's the post below 😁🙏)
