Case Study: Young Money grows newsletter subscribers from 2,000 to 35,000 with beehiiv

How Young Money’s List Grew 17x Since Switching to beehiiv

Young Money, a finance and investing newsletter by Jack Raines, faced the challenge of supercharging its audience growth beyond the 2,000 subscribers it had on Substack. Seeking better monetization and more advanced, automated growth tools, the newsletter switched to the beehiiv platform.

beehiiv provided a suite of built-in growth features, including a powerful referral program, detailed audience acquisition analytics, and a recommendations network. The results were dramatic: Young Money's subscriber list grew over 17 times, from 2,000 to 35,000 in one year. This growth enabled a lucrative advertising model, with beehiiv's flat monthly fee structure ensuring a significant return on investment.
