The Automated Sponsor System turns your email list into an automated revenue stream with paid sponsorships, whether you have 100 or 100,000+ subscribers.
Sources confirm sponsors don't need the biggest list in the world. They need trust and alignment, and if you're showing up for your audience, you already have it.
The system collects sponsor details, approves them, sends their results, and asks for a testimonial, without anyone chasing anyone down. Readers report it runs quietly in the background.

These sponsors booked spots in my emails through this exact system.
The sponsorship paid for itself in just over 8 hours, and I now have people who are brand new to my email list that I am able to connect with. The whole portal area where we can check our stats is BRILLIANT!
I got 45 clicks, leading to 34 signups for my bundle, which made up a whole 6% of my bundle signups. This was a WONDERFUL experience. Steph made the process so easy on my end, it was a breeze!
The automated system made it so easy, and I liked it so much that I bought the system from you! I especially liked the dashboard so I could see my results.
It was easy to sign up and schedule a date that worked for us, and we have continued to see people grab our freebie.

When I first started running sponsorships for my own email list, I didn't know if it would work.
My list wasn't massive, and I'd heard all the same doubts you probably have: "Do I need thousands of subscribers? Will anyone actually pay for this?"
But after testing, tweaking, and running the numbers, I sold 100 sponsorships in just 5 days.
That was my wake-up call. Sponsors don't care if you have the biggest list in the world. They care about trust and alignment.
And if you're showing up consistently for your audience, you already have what they want.
This is the same simple starting point I wish I had back then: an automated revenue stream for your list, no matter its size.
Nope! Sponsors care more about trust and engagement than sheer size. Even a list of a few hundred people can generate revenue with this system if your audience is aligned.
No. Everything is ready for you the moment you sign up, so you can set it up on your own schedule.
You'll get instant access to the complete system in your Simple Business Suite™ portal as soon as you sign up!
Forever. You get lifetime access to all of the templates, videos, and bonuses, including any updates.
Not at all. You'll keep sending your usual content. The system just lets you add paid sponsorships to your existing emails, which means every email you send can earn you extra revenue.
That's exactly what the Sponsor System Playbook is for. It walks you through what to charge, how many sponsors to run per email, and how to promote your sponsorship spots to your own audience, network, or online communities to get sponsors in the door.
It's mostly one-time setup. Once your system is in place, it runs on autopilot: sponsors sign up, their info flows into Airtable, they get confirmation emails, their ad runs, they get a report, and you get paid. I still recommend reviewing your automations every so often to make sure they keep working properly.
This system was made with simplicity in mind. Everything is explained clearly, and quick videos walk you through importing templates, connecting your form, and customizing emails. If you can copy and paste, you can do this.
Both! Whether you sell digital products or services, you can use sponsorships in your emails.
You'll need Airtable on a plan that includes automations (the system runs on them) and Fillout (the free plan works). If you'd prefer to use Zapier instead of Airtable automations, you can do that too, and I share tutorials for both.
You'll also need a landing page tool and a way to collect payment. I use the Simple Business Suite™, but you can use whatever works for you. If you're a Suite user, you get the exact sales page and payment workflows.
Optional: a project management tool to keep manual tasks organized, and Switchy if you'd like to give sponsors detailed click reports.
Probably not. I show you how to use webhooks to add new sponsors to your Airtable base from your checkout tool. If your checkout tool doesn't allow webhooks, I show how to do it with Zapier on the free plan. Suite users get the completed webhook workflow, so Zapier isn't needed.
The optional sponsor click reports use Switchy (available as a lifetime deal on AppSumo), and that automation uses 3 Zapier steps, which needs a paid Zapier plan. You can also do it by hand; I show both ways.
I built the entire system from scratch in about 6 hours. Since the templates are done for you, it should only take 1 to 2 hours to link the tools, update the emails, and get everything live.
