How Spacebar Studios grew IA Business Advisors to 10,000 subscribers in 4 months
IA Business Advisors has spent 30+ years helping small business owners grow. Their own newsletter kept losing out to client work, so we took it off their plate end to end. We launched Smart Advantage in June and passed 10,000 subscribers by October, at a ~43% open rate.
Great at newsletters for clients. No time for their own.
IA Business Advisors has spent 30+ years helping small business owners around the world, through strategic planning, succession planning, financial management and marketing.
They write newsletters and marketing content for their clients, but had no internal bandwidth left for their own. With their S.M.A.R.T. Management platform launching in 2027, they needed a consistent way to share valuable business insights, strengthen relationships, expand their reach, and introduce the new platform.
From launch to 10,000 subscribers in four months, ahead of a 2027 platform launch.
Four moves that built an audience ahead of launch
One newsletter. Four outcomes.
In four months, Smart Advantage passed 10,000 subscribers at a ~43% open rate, building an audience ready for their 2027 launch.
