Get more eyes on your business when you become a Legend

Legends benefit from free promotion and intentional relationship building in a network with over 350 creative entrepreneurs worldwide. Whether you want to get your business in front of more people, find the right collaborators or be inspired by how others are building their business, this is the right place. And at only $99/year, Legends say the return on their investment is a no brainer.

Why join NOW? Coming up in July, August and September:

  • My Q2 Earnings call where you'll see where your money goes, how this business works and give your input on what we should do next (July 9)
  • Our Legends Summer Hangout: a casual discussion with your fellow Legends plus live music (July 16)
  • Five Star Fest where you can share a project you want more reviews on (your podcast, your newsletter, a freebie, a book) and Legends will compete for prizes by reviewing them (August)
  • Legends of the Fall mixer where you'll be matched personally by me into rooms with the people you should meet to grow your business (September)

🏆 Perks of being a Legend:

  • Regular shoutouts of your work on my newsletter
  • 3 free classified ads a year in my newsletter (see some of the results my advertisers get)
  • Warm introductions to others in the network
  • Visibility in our Legends Directory to get more referrals and collaborations (and just so people know who you are)
  • Collaboration invitations to expand your audience like the Loose Ties Scavenger Hunt, and Secret Santa Swap.
  • Mixer invitations twice a year to expand your network where I match you up personally with other Legends based on your audience, location and industry
  • Invitations to my quarterly earnings calls so you can see where your money is going and inform what we do with it
  • All you can read Revenue Rulebreaker stories about how other entrepreneurs are making it work right now in RevenueRulebreaker.com
  • All you can read Paid Newsletter Playbook guides about running a paid subscription business on PaidNewsletterPlaybook.com
  • Preferential treatment at all times because I like you the best
  • Bonus perks that we unlock every 100 Legends—next one is free classified ads in my newsletter!

Why Legends join:

Legends get the concrete perks listed above, but they also receive benefits from being part of the Legends network. Legends like each other! And they're inclined to like you too. That means you may also experience:

  • New collaborators
  • New referral partners
  • New clients/customers
  • New newsletter readers, podcast listeners, livestream viewers
  • New social media amplifiers and commenters
  • Friend of a friend introductions through Legends to other rad people

I am not promising any of this. I'm running a very low cost subscription here so I'm not making a guarantee of any kind BUT active Legends—ones who come to stuff or connect with other Legends through our activities—do report business expanding benefits. That's the serendipity of being a Legend! It's pretty easy to make your $99 bucks back. Plus, lots of people actually enjoy my writing and find it useful. Crazy I know!

Other Legends join to get access to all my writing on RevenueRulebreaker.com and the PaidNewsletterPlaybook.com (but if you just want content access, you can get a Backstage Pass for $75/yr instead)

Here's some of why Legends say it's worth it:

"If you're debating joining, I can help you make the decision....JUST DO IT. Lex runs the best events and campaigns for members. In just 2 months and thanks to one of these campaigns, I saw a 657% ROI from my Legends membership!" Jamie Cox, Branding Strategist

"I joined before I even fully understood what it was because I knew 'if Lex was doing this, it was going to be good'. Now I love the fact that, in addition to the newsletter, we get all these surprises all based on your creative ideas and things you think would be cool to do. Such a treat!" Alison Coward, Team Culture Expert

"Lex's Legends has been the network I've been searching for." Jennifer Spoelma, Creative Generalist

"Legends Mixers are my FAVORITE networking events. Lex does such an amazing job matching us up and encouraging connections. I can't wait for the next one!" Kara Detwiller, Writer

"I'd wager that my investment in joining the Legends community, led by Lex Roman, will be the best investment I make in 2025. For just $9/month, the sheer amount of actionable content available at the click of a button has already sparked countless ideas." Raven O'Neal, Business Strategist and Podcaster

"I just became part of the Legends community by Lex Roman. Lex is the best in the business when it comes to helping creators, journalists, freelancers–basically anyone who works for themselves–figure out how to build their values-based businesses. Look forward to this next year with Lex!" Yulia Denisyuk, Journalist and filmmaker

"The Legends Network is such a gold mine I willingly paid for it twice. It's where I've met all my business besties. It's my go to network when I need to hire, collaborate, or look for help. It's incredibly valuable and it's F U N. If you are a creative business owner you need to be in here. It's that simple." Laura Green, Business Strategist

"Becoming a Legend was the best money I’ve spent for my business and my soul. The human connection, especially as biz owners and especially now, is invaluable. I cannot recommend this group highly enough." Shawnna Stiver, Copywriter

"Very few people have impacted my entrepreneurial journey as much as Lex Roman. Lex has introduced me to some of my greatest collaborators, favorite clients, and best friends." Devin Lee, Systems Strategist

The backstory of Legends

I launched Legends when I started Revenue Rulebreaker as a way to fund this project. It's become so much more than that quickly.

It's now a network of really fucking cool creative entrepreneurs.

There are 350+ Legends as I write this. They are creatives, agency owners, authors, professional speakers, educators, media entrepreneurs, community operators, and creators. Legends are experts at their craft, established in their businesses and well connected in their fields.

Legends are people who share the ethos of Revenue Rulebreaker and who want to build their business alongside with likeminded entrepreneurs.

They joined at first because of me. They stayed and kept joining because of each other.

It's important that you know this is not a community. It's a network. I host Legends for mixers. I match Legends for co-promotion. I introduce Legends when it makes sense. It's low effort, high reward. I drive most of it. And it's full of serendipity.

Become part of this incredible network and contribute to this project of making revenue rulebreaking possible for more entrepreneurs.

The more of us who make money the way we want to, doing the things we want to do, living the lives we want to live, the more we pave that path for others.

P.S. Just want all access to my paid content? Join as a Backstage Passholder and get everything here on RevenueRulebreaker.com and everything at PaidNewsletterPlaybook.com. But I recommend you join as a Legend because you get SO MUCH MORE for just $20 more a year.
