About

I run GrowLetter. We help media/creator/education companies build owned audiences and drive revenue with newsletters and email marketing. We operate a marketing agency, conference, cohort-based course, newsletter, and podcast. Previously, I led growth at The Hustle and helped grow the newsletter to 2.5M+ subscribers. We were acquired by HubSpot. Then, I was the first employee at Milk Road. We grew to 250,000 subscribers and were acquired in 10 months. This led to the creation of GrowLetter, the first "newsletter growth agency." We've driven over 10M newsletter subscribers and over $100M in sales for clients like: James Clear, Codie Sanchez, Sahil Bloom, Dan Martell, Jay Shetty, Chartr, Sherwood News, Money.com, WorkWeek, and many more. Since starting, GrowLetter has become more than a "newsletter growth agency." We help clients build entire marketing funnels, comprehensive ad campaigns that drive ROAS, email marketing, innovate on strategy, and more. We're the #1 marketing partner for media, creator, and education businesses who want to own their audiences and scale subscriber and customer acquisition.
