Growing My Newsletter Side Hustle By Launching A Website

Hello again! Remind us who you are and what business you started.
I’m Qin Xie, a journalist and editor based in London. In May 2020 I launched Money Talk, a smart newsletter that’s designed to help you save money and grow wealth.
Although I managed to secure paying subscribers straight away, I quickly realized that in the UK, a paid newsletter in the personal finance space isn’t going to work so I had to rethink my strategy. In December 2020, Money Talk became a website and newsletter. Less than a year after launch, it was shortlisted for Headlinemoney.co.uk’s Blog of the Year.
