🎲 This is Revenue Rulebreaker, where we cover:

Three times a week, you'll get a fresh edition in your inbox with my latest take on what online business owners are toiling over and how to glide your way through it.

The newsletter is free but all of the good stuff is paywalled just for Legends.

Legends are a creative network who back this project, and in return, they are rewarded with networking, collaborations, free promotion and more.

Why Legends? What I've noticed after working with 100s of entrepreneurs over the years is that the biggest problem everyone faces is getting in front of the right audience. I have turned Legends into a space where you can meet the right people, collaborate to grow your audience and get shout outs year round—from me and from other Legends.

Become a Legend now and get 20% off your first year—only $79 for the WHOLE YEAR!

🏆 Perks of being a Legend:

All for $79 your first year—you get 20% off now! And it's $99/year after that.

The thing is: Business media is collapsing with everything else.

Forbes is pay-to-play. So is Entrepreneur Magazine. Fast Company, Inc Magazine, TechCrunch...they're barely still around. A lot of the info we're being fed as entrepreneurs is basically a sales funnel for someone else's business. That sucks. And it's not helpful when you're trying to see clearly what's ahead for your own company.

Revenue Rulebreaker and The Legends Network are here to offer you something more personal. Stories from entrepreneurs like you doing the kinds of things you want to be doing. "How to" guides that you can actually follow. Revenue breakdowns that give you enough information to make good decisions for yourself. And rich relationships with other entrepreneurs building in the same direction as you.

This blog is fun, but it is also deeply practical. Readers tell me they've booked clients, sold classes, won over paid subscribers, booked sponsorships and more just from the posts behind the paywall.

By the way, I'm Lex Roman. I'm a former tech worker turned blogger. I pivoted my podcast Low Energy Leads into what's now Revenue Rulebreaker.

I started my own business in 2019 doing growth consulting. I've been a service provider for many years but I got kinda sick of it and wanted to be experimenting more broadly with ways to make money (and I wanted to know everyone's secrets to how they did it too). That's how we got here.

This isn't a funnel for anything else. I'm not gonna sell you on my services or get you to buy my smoothies. I just want to produce cool, interesting stuff you see yourself in. Captivating stories. Detailed guides. Fun events.

If you want to back this project and be part of the creative network that benefits from it, you should join us in Legends. Get 20% off your first year when you join us now.

The Revenue Rulebreaker newsletter comes out three times a week. You can also check the site or get the RSS for fresh stories all the time.

See you in these wild internet streets, Rulebreaker!
