Revenue Rulebreaker reaches creative entrepreneurs weekly via our newsletter, daily on LinkedIn and bi-monthly on YouTube. I have strong trust with this audience because this list includes my past clients, active collaborators and 270+ paid subscribers. My partners get stellar results because I'm careful about who I promote and my audience is interested in exploring my recommendations.
About my audience
My audience is creative small business owners based in the United States, United Kingdom and Canada. Mostly solopreneurs who serve clients, but we have some agency and consulting teams too. What's most powerful about my audience is the network effect—the vast majority are influencers in their circles who spread the word about my recommended products and services to their own clients and audiences.
Industries:
- Tech consulting
- Small business services
- Digital marketing and advertising

Job titles:

Channel audience sizes:
- Newsletter: 2k+ (my most trusted audience and most of my buyers)
- LinkedIn: 7k+ (leans more tech/ex-tech small business owners)
- YouTube: 6k+ (high intent small business owners. I see a lot of my own paid subscribers come from this channel and strong buyer intent with partners)
Expected results:
I price my ads for sales and conversion, not for generic awareness building or list building. My audience is high intent and most partners get interested leads and buyers if there's an offer.
- Newsletter: Featured ads get 15-40 unique clicks. Featured issues get 30-80 unique clicks.
- LinkedIn: Performance is not easily measured for my base through impressions or comments, but we do see conversions on LinkedIn when paired with other channels.
- YouTube: Typically gets 1-2k views. Similar to LinkedIn, performance is best measured through an affiliate link and partners will see trials and upgrades from my videos when paired with other channels to promote.
- Virtual Events: 30-60 registrants and 20-30 live attendees per event.

Know before you book
I reserve the right to reject ads that don't suit my brand or audience. Ads should be relevant to creative small business owners. In general, I don't advertise exclusively AI services, anything related to weapons or violence and Substack newsletters. If I decide your ad isn't right for my audience, you'll receive a full refund before we run them.
Performance is not guaranteed but I work hard to deliver excellent results. I'll track and report back on performance and will do everything I can to make your campaign a success.
