$38K Per Year From a No-Code Newsletter (8800 Subs)

Katt Risen from Belgium 🇧🇪 turned her love for no-code startups into a profitable newsletter, No-Code Exits, earning $38,000 annually with less than 9000 subscribers.

According to a recent interview, Katt was bitten by the business bug early…

My dad is an entrepreneur so while growing up I spent a lot of my weekends and holidays working at his company…

My brothers and I inherited some of his entrepreneurial spirit. While growing up we were always busy with silly side hustles.

😍 Eventually Katt discovered no-code tools and started building small projects…

It all changed in 2021 when I was browsing Product Hunt and discovered Softr and the ‘No-Code’ movement. With these drag-and-drop tools, I could suddenly tinker on my ideas… I was so thrilled…

Eventually, this led to me quitting my job in 2023 to go all in on No-Code.

Her first big win happened in 2022, when her tool advisor chatbot – No-Code Guru – got acquired 🥳

Katt tweeted about the acquisition and…

the tweet BLEW UP: lots of comments, likes and DM’s with questions. On a whim, I decided it might make an interesting newsletter topic…

In 30 minutes No-Code Exits was born. I tweeted about it and 24 hours later I woke up to 500 subscribers. Idea validated. I published my own story about the acquisition of No-Code Guru and that is how it all started.

Now, with over 55 editions published, Katt monetizes her newsletter through sponsorships and her own products 👇

• No-Code Maker Workbook
• Good Problems
• Sprints.so (accountability service)

Katt’s idea for the newsletter came from her own tweet blowing up.

Which has me thinking: you could probably get a bunch of newsletter ideas by keeping an eye on popular tweets 👀

Maybe even team up with the person who wrote the tweet to create and promote the newsletter.
