#79: Dru Riley – 45,000+ email subscribers in less than 2 years
Dru Riley is the creator of Trends.vc, which has more than 45,000 subscribers and 1,000 Pro members. With each Trends report, Dru focuses on one core idea or movement. He dives into the history of that idea, why it matters, who the major players in that industry are, the relevant tools and platforms, predictions, opportunities, risks, key lessons, and even some of the opposing viewpoints as to why that idea is bogus. Trends also has a Pro subscription that goes deeper into each of those areas and includes other forms of media, a community, and more. In this episode, we talk about Dru’s mini-retirement, why he decided to build Trends, how he thinks about pricing and monetization, what makes a good online community, and why Being Concise has helped along the way.
