SALES SECRET OF THE WEEK
10x your sales in 10 minutes…

Good morning. Today i'm going to do some shame-less self promotion, and tell you about Open Rates. It is the tool that helped a Newsletter (like yours) close a $20,000+ deal yesterday, with very little effort.

Now i don't know about you -- but I enjoy making more money with less effort. So i want to tell you about the secret tool that the worlds best newsletters operators use to grow revenue?

The secret weapon is Open Rates. It's a tool that helps you find and convert newsletter sponsorships in your niche.

You can find, contact and close companies who are spending money right now through OpenRates database of 10,000+ sponsors.

With Open Rates you can 10x your sales on autopilot. You might recognize some of the newsletters using it.

• The Milk Road

• 1440

• The Daily Upside

• (this newsletter you're reading)

• And many more

It's the #1 Sales tool for anyone looking to earn money from their newsletter. I've built Open Rates because selling over $850,000+ worth of Newsletter Advertisements was a bitch to do. It took hours of hard-lessons.

Now you can benefit from those lessons and sttart using Open Rates to generate more sales leads for your newsletter.

DEALS OF THE WEEK
How To Create A Morning Brew Template

Reminder this is the section where every Monday i share the biggest media deals of the past week. We've got some cool ones today!

First deal is about images. You know Getty images? the worlds largest repository of images, well they just partnered with Runway.

Looks like soon other companies can start training models based on the MILLIONS of photos on Getty. That's going to likely create a bunch of niche models that will be super accurate.

Here are two other big ones.

• Remember Enrique Iglesias? He just sold his catalog backlog to Blackrock. Sign of things to come?

• Oh and ByteDance? The owner of Tik Tok? yeah things are going so well they're buying back $5,000,000,000 (billion, i just wanted to write the zeroes to emphasize the craziness) worth of shares!
