How I Built a $75M Newsletter: My Top Tips to Make Yours Impactful in 2025
Briefly

Morning Brew originated from a need identified during university, where students found traditional business news source like the Wall Street Journal too dense and uninspiring. This gap in appealing business content led to the creation of a daily newsletter that conveyed essential business stories in a concise, engaging manner. Despite initial technical challenges, the newsletter quickly gained traction among students. Over time, it evolved into a successful platform with millions of subscribers and various spin-off newsletters that cater to different business sectors.
The success of Morning Brew came from making business news engaging and digestible, connecting with young professionals who found traditional sources too dense.
We transformed a simple idea into a daily newsletter by summarizing complex business stories into concise, engaging segments that our audience found relatable.
The initial lack of tech infrastructure didn't hinder our growth; we manually converted documents and fostered a direct connection with our readers, which built loyalty.
Morning Brew’s growth indicates a shift in how young people consume business news, favoring concise, engaging content over traditional, more complex formats.
