Newsletter for Sale

Hi all.

I have decided to put Album Daily up for sale, and gauge interest to find a potential buyer to take it to the next level. This truly is a newsletter that could blow up with a savvy marketer or business developer. I put zero effort into marketing, and this was 100% organic growth. The opportunity is great for someone who can put the time in to grow.

Here are the stats:
Started - October 2019
Subscribers - Total 1330 (some subscribe to both options)
- Daily newsletter subscribers - 106 (started 6/22/20)
- Weekly newsletter subscribers - 1226
Open Rate:
- Daily newsletter - 40%
- Weekly newsletter - 25%
Click Rate:
- Daily newsletter - 8-10%

  • Weekly newsletter - 5-6%

A couple important notes:

  1. I'm seeing my organic search engine traffic start to kick in. All newsletter content is posted on the website, so the crawlers are picking it up. In the last two months, I've seen 193 new users from organic google search, which is trending in the right direction.
  2. All of the growth was organic, not paid at all.
  3. The only expenses are the domain, which is $20/year (I think, will have to confirm)
  4. If I do say so myself, the website is a great differentiating factor this newsletter. It is striking. It was custom built by myself, and is a great tool for the newsletter.

If you, or anyone you know, seems like a good fit, I'd love to open a conversation. Take care!

    Lovely site and idea, and a great use of an email newsletter. I think it would be a nice fit as a purchase for an offline/online independent record store.

      Hello @yaroslawbagriy! I don't have a set price in mind. Will entertain any fair offers.

        What is the revenue on the newsletter?

        1. 1

          No revenue because I did not put any time into selling ads. At its current subscriber level, it easily could support ad revenue right away.
