Workspaces brings you inside the workspaces of entrepreneurs, designers, developers, etc.
Currently a mix of inbound and outbound work to gather the sponsors for each edition.
- boeingUH60 5y agoMay I ask how you get sponsors? I have a newsletter/blog with reasonable traffic (>100k page views per month) but can’t seem to find any direct advertisers..
- ryangilbert 5y agoDefinitely! I recently added a "call for sponsors" blurb in the intro of one of my newsletters once I felt I hit a level of subscribers where it made sense. I immediately had a few readers reply with interest that ultimately led to my first few sponsors. From there, I did some cold outreach via Twitter DMs and email. My newsletter is very workspace item/tools centered so I put thought into what sort of sponsors made sense there and it led to the next batch. Think: companies who would organically be featured by a guest anyway... show them the value. I'm pretty transparent with the growth/numbers on Twitter as well so I think that helps when doing the Twitter outreach for sponsors. They are easily able to look back at the Twitter engagement if they don't already know what Workspaces is.
