Send & Grow podcast

Welcome back to another episode of the Send & Grow podcast. This week, SparkLoop cofounder Louis Nicholls sits down with Ryan Carr of the Blakely Digital: an agency dedicated to helping newsletter operators grow their audience & revenue.

And Ryan knows a thing or two about newsletter growth. Ryan was the Growth Lead at The Hustle when they were acquired by Hubspot and now — with his agency — helps drive growth for newsletters like Bankless DAO and Matthew Berry's Fantasy Life, to name a few.

In this episode, Louis & Ryan discuss…

  • 3 common traits of newsletters creating "high-quality content"
  • The first—and most important—question Ryan asks new growth clients
  • The best channels to test the waters with paid growth
  • What's working right now for paid growth on Twitter
  • ...and much more!
