This week on Letterland LIVE we're joined by Ben Tossell, founder of Ben's Bites, the AI newsletter with 172,000+ subscribers.
Every's CEO Dan Shipper says the newsletter is dead because his AI agent reads his inbox now. Ben tells us if he's right, how he uses AI as a reader AND an operator, how his fund fits into the Ben's Bites business model, and whether Ben's Bites is about to become a video.
Then Milly Tamati, CEO & founder of Generalist World, a newsletter 55,000 people read each week, plays Spam or Star and breaks down if her social quiz growth hack is still working.
We'll get into:
- Gmail's AI Inbox comes to paid Workspace accounts
- "The newsletter is dead": Nathan May, Matt McGarry and Emily Sundberg react
- Marc Lou's MailCheap hits 3-figure MRR
- Workweek's B2B network: 39 newsletters, 23,651 subscribers, and why B2B's 3-5% creator budget is about to climb
- MarketBeat's $150 million in net income (40% in the last two years)
- Michael Burry's Substack price hike
- Consulting Hat: 3,000 hospital admins and a $150 placement. Is that the right price?
- Kill the logo in your ads, cut your signup form to one field, and more actionable intel
- Are you tapping Substack as a growth channel? Your answers
... and everything else you need to know about the newsletter world.
