How do you make money from your email list?\u00a0For most people it\u00a0means\u00a0creating a product.<\/p>\n

A physical product like a journal<\/a> or guitar<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Or a digital product like an app<\/a> or a course<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Products aren’t easy though. They take months\u00a0to create and years to perfect. What if there was an easier way?<\/p>\n

What if there was a way to quickly grow your list to 1,000 subscribers\u00a0and then immediately start generating $200 to $800 per month in recurring revenue? And what if it involved you creating NO product at all?<\/p>\n

Is it possible? Well…check this out.<\/p>\n

A few weeks back I ran across\u00a0buymyfuture.com.<\/a> (Go catch up\u00a0real quick if you haven\u2019t seen it already.)<\/p>\n

After digging a little further, I discovered that the guy, Jason, behind the site was also the guy behind iwillwearyourshirt.com<\/a>. He generated over a million dollars in revenue from that project by selling sponsorships to businesses where he put their logo on a t-shirt and wore the shirt\u00a0for the day.<\/p>\n

\"\"

*mind blown*<\/p>\n

Jason is the KING of sponsorships.<\/p>\n

He also wrote a book about his experience with both projects called Selling Creativity<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And of course, like all of his previous projects, he sold sponsorships to his book as well. Those sponsorships (which were sold before he wrote a single page of the book)\u00a0generated $80,000 in revenue.<\/p>\n

The crazy part of Jason’s entire story is he’s done all this with a small email list.<\/p>\n

The brilliant idea you need to copy (like right now)<\/h2>\n

As I read Jason’s story I had an idea!<\/p>\n

What if I\u00a0sold sponsorships to my weekly newsletter like Jason sold sponsorships to his book?<\/p>\n

If it generated enough money, I could use the revenue to write more blog posts and create more\u00a0tools<\/a>\u00a0and products (like 10ksubs<\/a>) for y’all.<\/p>\n

It also might be a cool way to regularly introduce you to new products and services that otherwise I might not talk about because I’m not writing full-fledged blog posts about them.<\/p>\n

Even better, if I could perfect the process for getting sponsorships for small email lists, this could be a brilliant way for newbies to quickly monetize their lists!<\/p>\n

It would look something like this:<\/p>\n

Step 1:<\/strong> Get to 1,000 subs (in 90 days).<\/p>\n

Step 2:<\/strong> Find a sponsor to pay you $200 to $800 per month to put a little blurb and link at the bottom of your weekly emails.<\/p>\n

So I did\u00a0it!<\/p>\n
