A single operated newsletter may be the easiest business ventures to set up:
1) Create an account
2) Import your email list (Paidletter shows you how to grow one)
3) Connect to a payment system (we prefer Stripe) to receive payments.
Readers subscribe monthly or annually, and most publications offer a discount for the annual subscription.
In Dan’s words:
“Now I Know is a free daily email newsletter where I share fascinating facts and the stories behind them. Readers have learned that Abraham Lincoln created the secret service – on the day he was shot, that carrots used to be purple, how turkey (the bird/food) got its name, and a whole lot more.
I’ve been writing Now I Know since June of 2010. I publish every weekday, and when people ask me how I do it, I tell them the same thing: it’s a lot of work, but it’s worth it. I love to share all the interesting things I learn about, and I now have a great way to do it.”
