## Resource

Lucas and Luna explore the collaborative newsletter model, where two or more writers co-author a single publication. They break down how The Browser's co-writing structure drove 150,000 subscribers, how Beehiiv's collaborative tools reduced churn by 10 percent, and why co-authored newsletters see 30 percent higher open rates. They also discuss the pitfalls, including editorial friction and revenue splits. If you've ever thought about starting a newsletter with a partner, this episode is your blueprint. #CollaborativeWriting #NewsletterGrowth #Beehiiv #Substack #TheBrowser #CoAuthoring #OpenRates #SubscriberGrowth #MarketingStrategy #ContentStrategy #NewsletterBusiness #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Collaboration #EmailMarketing #ChurnRate #EditorialStrategy #RevenueSplits Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
