How I made 6 figures from this newsletter in <1 year

When I started this newsletter, I was already deep in building mode — growing my following on social media and launching The Gen She Fund. I didn’t have time to add another full-time project to my plate. But I still wanted to write and connect with you all. And I genuinely thought monetizing a newsletter meant building a whole other business — designing a website, running outbound sales, pitching brands, and managing sponsorships.

To my surprise, I ended up making six figures from it in under a year — and not because I spent my weekends doing all that. It’s because I used beehiiv (yes, the platform I’m writing this on).

Here’s how:

• beehiiv has a built-in ad network, which means they automatically connect you with advertisers. I didn’t have to pitch, negotiate, or sell. I just hit publish and got paid for every send.

• They also have a built-in referral and recommendation system. So when I recommend other newsletters, I earn affiliate revenue with zero added effort.

• Everything you need — landing pages, posts, subscriber forms, and way more — is all built-in to the beehiiv platform.

I’ve been using beehiiv since Day 1, and honestly? I’m obsessed. It’s the only platform that makes growing and monetizing feel seamless and essentially automatic.

So in short, if you’ve been thinking about starting a newsletter: Do it. beehiiv makes it stupid easy — and if you want to try it out, you can use my code ‘Avni25’ for 20% off your first 3 months.
