615: Local Newsletters: $200k from 18k subscribers

Local newsletter business opportunities have always caught my eye as a side hustle enthusiast.

I'm constantly on the lookout for ventures that are low overhead, scalable, and sellable.

Newsletter businesses, with examples like The Hustle and Morning Brew, tick all these boxes, selling for impressive 8-figure exits.

He has become a pillar of the community along the way while making $200k a year from 18k subscribers.
