Means of Creation #3: Lenny Rachitsky

On newsletters, platforms, marketplaces, and more

I found out about Lenny’s newsletter at some point before the pandemic hit, I can’t remember exactly when. But I do remember how it made me feel.

“This guy gets it!!”

I had just recently left Substack and was thinking about what I wanted to do next, and here was this gift from the heavens, dropped in my inbox every week, with detailed, tactical advice on how to build things with people. I was instantly hooked.

Recently, Lenny took his newsletter paid, and it’s working incredibly well. He’s now #20 on the leaderboard of top paid publications.

Li and I are thrilled to have Lenny as our third guest for Means of Creation, our weekly talk show about the passion economy. We’d love for you to join us tomorrow at 11am pacific / 2pm eastern (same time every week!) to talk all things newsletters, platforms, marketplaces, and more.
