👋 Hi friends -
Welcome to The Newsletter Growth Memo. Twice a month, I share short reflections with my newsletter clients + other operators.
Zero formality, ads, or affiliate links - just a guy sharing learnings from working with media operators doing $25k-$5M+ / month with newsletters.
New reader highlights: Nolan, Head of Marketing @ School of Hard Knocks | Violet, Creator Content Partnerships @ Meta | Nittin, COO @ Investing Media Solutions
Jay Yang is 20.
Cold emailed his way into beehiiv at 16.
Pitched his way into Noah Kagan's company at 17.
And then shut down a $25k/month ghostwriting agency as a college freshman to join acquisition.com.
He’s the youngest guy to ever work for Alex Hormozi and was part of a very small team behind Alex’s $100M book launch that broke a Guinness World Record.
And he’s my buddy! So I had to have him on the Personal IPO Podcast.
He took me inside the room for the $100M launch - the sales floor, the hour before doors opened, and watching the counter jumped from zero to a million books in 30 minutes.
We jam on:
The biggest lessons from sitting in Hormozi’s $135k/person masterminds
The Contact Quadrant - the 4 ways to work with your heroes and dream customers
The 4-Pillar life decision framework he used to comfortably drop a $25k/month ghostwriting business to work for Hormozi
The pitch decks he used to land his roles at beehiiv, Appsumo, and ACQ
Why he walked away from Hormozi’s team at the peak
Your regularly scheduled newsletter will be in your inbox next Tuesday. See you then!
That's the letter.
