Every writer should have a newsletter making $10k/month.

But most overthink, never make $1, and give up too soon.

So what's the secret to creating a successful paid newsletter?

Your positioning.

Or, in other words, the promise your newsletter makes to the reader.

How To Position A 6-Figure Newsletter (4 Criteria)

Your newsletter promise needs to be:

1. Tangible

Tangible is something you can touch or measure.

Intangible language: "Live the life of your dreams & retire early!"

You can't touch or measure this.

Tangible language: "Retire before age 45 with $1,000,000 in your bank account."

2. Have an objective outcome

Subjective outcome: "Become successful."

Ask 10 people their definition of success and you'll get 10 different answers.

Objective outcome: "Make $300k/year."

You either objectively achieve this or you don't.

3. Solve a problem

If your newsletter doesn't solve a reader's problem, then there's no reason for them to subscribe!

This positioning is 90% of the game.

The rest is simple:

1. Write about your newsletter on social

2. Drive traffic to your newsletter

3. Send free snippets to your list

4. Create a cliffhanger in the newsletter to create FOMO so people upgrade to paid

This is how I scaled my Write With AI newsletter to $300,000/year.
