Launch week
Final review, go live, and your first post-launch call to make sure everything runs smoothly.
Ongoing support
Two months of support plus three post-launch consulting calls to help you grow and monetize.
A premium, high-touch build.
Some people just need a one-time, done-right launch to get going. The Launch Accelerator is priced as a premium, high-touch setup so we can do it quickly and correctly.
You get full attention for about a week to make everything launch-ready, plus post-launch support so you are set up for success.
It is a one-time $5,000 engagement with no monthly retainer. Afterward you can book more consulting or run it entirely on your own. You are in control.
Good to know.
How long does it take?
The core setup takes about one week from kickoff to launch. Then 4 implementation sessions during setup, 3 post-launch calls over the following two months, plus support during that time.
What platforms do you use?
Beehiiv for publishing and Meta for paid subscriber acquisition, plus an ad-management platform for sponsor campaigns.
Is ad spend included?
No. The $5,000 covers setup, strategy, and support. You'll want a separate budget for Meta ad spend (we recommend starting around $10–20/day).
What happens after the two months?
Total flexibility. Book additional consulting, or run your newsletter independently with the systems we built. You're in control.
Can I use an existing newsletter?
Yes. We can relaunch, migrate subscribers, and professionalize an existing stack, or build from scratch.
