Questions founders ask.About newsletter tools.
Who owns the subscriber lists after a sale?
The writers do. We do not use their subscribers for anything other than the service they pay for.
Do you buy tools that take a share of paid subscriptions?
Yes, if the share is clear to writers and the payment flows are in order.
Is this a separate search?
No. The same search profile applies to every business type: $5k–$20k in monthly recurring revenue and three to eight years of history are preferences, not cut-offs.
