PLUS: newsletter question of the week
Daniel Berk
April 29, 2023
Hello to 1,451 newsletter creators!
This is Fatherpreneur, the newsletter about newsletters that's written by a dad with a mustache who's been writing newsletters for 10 years.
Today's issue is experimental. The format: 4 Tweets and a Question of the Week. I'd love it if you could respond to my poll at the bottom with your thoughts.
You know you’re a newsletter creator when…

… you meet someone IRL and you tell them you write a newsletter and they don’t understand why that’s worth mentioning or a big deal at all, so you basically have to explain to them that your newsletter is actually a media vertical (a term they are not familiar with), and by the end of the conversation you end up just telling them you’re a journalist and you give up trying to make it make sense to them.

just launched a HUGE new feature: Boosts
You can now pay other Beehiiv newsletters to recommend you -- and get paid by recommending other newsletters.
Here's how to use it to grow:

Matt’s a fellow newsletter connoisseur and writes a phenomenal newsletter about newsletters.
Sound familiar?
Matt’s helped countless newsletters grow to be what they are today — newsletters like The Hustle, Milk Road, 1440, and more. If you’re trying to grow a newsletter, it’s definitely worth subscribing to Matt’s (he’s not even paying me to say this. Actually he doesn’t even know I’m saying this!)
