How to Launch a Newsletter After 50 for Consulting Income
from Late-Career Conversations with Fexingo: 50+ Professionals, Encore Careers, and Pre-Retirement · host Fexingo
In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how late-career professionals can launch a paid newsletter to build consulting income. They use the case of a 58-year-old former HR director who started a weekly Substack on workforce trends, grew it to 4,000 subscribers in 18 months, and used it to land three fractional consulting gigs. The hosts break down the specific steps: picking a narrow niche, writing short posts consistently, and cross-publishing on LinkedIn. They also discuss common pitfalls like over-investing in design before proving demand, and how to price a subscription at $8/month to start. If you have deep expertise and want to monetize it without a full-time job, this episode gives you a practical blueprint. #LateCareer #NewsletterLaunch #Substack #ConsultingIncome #HRDirector #WorkforceTrends #LinkedInCrossPublishing #NicheExpertise #MonetizeExpertise #FractionalWork #EncoreCareer #PassiveIncome #WritingCareer #CareerPivot #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #CareersAfter50 #ConsultingBlueprint Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
