Ask HN: How would you market this?
10 comments
Go multi-channel.
Podcast, YouTube channel, Blog, Newsletter.
Do interviews with startups and then put them out to each of these channels. Audio interviews on podcast, video interviews on YouTube, transcripts/polls/think-pieces on the blog, digest in the newsletter.
You can decide to keep your Blog as the primary source hosting all the content.
Use social media like Twitter, LinkedIn etc., to inform those audiences about your content and grow your subscribers organically.

Great idea, I definitely like taking a multi-channel approach.
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!
I would pivot.
tell the story of new startups for posterity and have them share they're story with they're customers, investors etc. now each time you add one you expose your newsletter to a wider and wider audience.

Oh man I love that, I'll see if I can somehow incorporate that into this or do both.
How would you go about finding these new startups?

Have you checked out the social channels, i.e. Reddit, and Instagram?
I've been using Twitter so far, I'm looking for some more ideas honestly.
Well - you have 7 subscribers at 16, well done!
It's 10 now :)
Gonna keep doing trial and error until I get somewhere.

I'm a 16 and one of the things that I love to do is study startups (their history, how they got big, etc).
Not too long ago I decided to start building a newsletters.
It's called Unheard Roots and my goal was to tell the backstory of startups that change the world (a little corny but I find it interesting).
I have 7 subscribers so far and I'm a little lost on how I can grow it.
I don't really care to make money off of this, I'm just interested in building a community of people that enjoy learning about these startups like I do.
If you were in my shoes, what would you do to find people who might be interested in this?
P.S this is the newsletter: https://unheardroots.com/
