Questions

Newsletter sponsorships, answered

What is a newsletter sponsorship? +
A newsletter sponsorship is a paid advertising placement inside an email newsletter, where a brand pays the publisher to feature its product or message to that newsletter's subscribers. Placements range from a short native mention to a full dedicated send, and pricing can be a flat rate, a cost per thousand opens, or a performance basis such as cost per click.
How does Wellput price sponsorships? +
Wellput prices placements on a dynamic CPC model, so brands pay for the clicks a placement delivers rather than a fixed sponsorship fee. This moves the risk of an underperforming placement off the advertiser and toward measurable outcomes.
How does Wellput optimize performance? +
Campaigns often need significant click volume before a brand can judge whether a placement is working toward its lower-funnel goal, which can waste spend. Wellput captures early engagement signals, identifies weak performers sooner, and shifts budget toward optimized spend on viable newsletters.
What newsletters can brands sponsor? +
Wellput offers access to both premium editorial newsletters with large engaged audiences and targeted niche newsletters, vetted for brand safety. Brands can run across both depending on whether the goal is reach or performance.
How do publishers earn with Wellput? +
Publishers choose which advertiser campaigns to run, earn premium CPC rates from engaged audiences, and place clean native ad formats that readers trust. Wellput manages the brand relationships and campaign setup so publishers can simply place the sponsored content in their newsletter and get paid for the clicks they generate.
