The open-source startup helping creators turn audiences into a business
With everyone and their mom jumping on the newsletter train, there’s been a dark horse that has bet on the creator economy for nearly a decade.
Ghost, which offers a suite of publishing tools for creators, vouches to help writers “turn your audience into a business.”
They’ve quietly scaled to $3m ARR, while enabling the creators on their platform to bring in $2.2m of their own. In a race with much bigger fish, Ghost has kept up through their unique business model (a nonprofit, open-source, fully remote company) that has been profitable since 2014.
