What You Can Build

Price a paid newsletter

Model tiers, conversion assumptions, and recurring revenue before launching a paid offer.

Create a sponsor rate card

Set sellable inventory, rate basis, fill assumptions, and floor prices for sponsorships.

Compare growth paths

Compare subscription-only and hybrid revenue plans at specific audience-growth milestones.

Try These Prompts

Start a basic model
Model paid subscriptions for my newsletter. I have 5,000 active subscribers, a 40% open rate, and a $10 monthly tier.
Build a sponsor rate card
Create a sponsorship rate card for my 20,000-subscriber newsletter. It has a 45% open rate, weekly sends, and two sponsor slots.
Compare revenue mixes
Compare paid-subscription-only and hybrid subscription plus sponsorship plans for a 45,000-subscriber list. Use my 42% open rate, 3.1% click rate, and stated prices.
Plan growth and compliance
Project newsletter revenue at current size, 25% growth, and 50% growth. Include referral assumptions, sponsorship disclosures, and claims that need review.

Best Practices

  • Provide active-subscriber counts, engagement metrics, cadence, and current prices.
  • State every conversion, fill-rate, CPM, and growth assumption explicitly.
  • Label sponsorships and route unsupported claims for review before publishing.

Avoid

  • Do not present estimated revenue as measured performance.
  • Do not use subscriber lists without confirming commercial-mail consent.
  • Do not invent benchmarks when data is missing; mark the value as needing a source.
