Company mission

The Newsette's mission is to make women across the globe feel more powerful every single day with engaging and digestible content.

Led by a woman

Our take

Next-gen media company The Newsette aims to inspire and empower women. Its focus since being founded back in 2015 has remained lean: a daily newsletter of curated content. In spite of, or because of this, the company has seen remarkable success. The Newsette has pulled in revenue in tens of millions of dollars, and has achieved this all without VC investment.

Its content is a combination of news, career advice, interviews, and style tips. But The Newsette is reportedly planning to develop the women-first brand with a variety of experiences and products such as casting services or celebrity management.

Roughly one fifth of Americans use email news weekly, and it is used widely by marketers for being a channel which still offers a surprisingly high ROI. This no doubt helps The Newsette net good affiliate marketing.
