BCheque Newsletter Partnership
TLDR: Since the Lil Nouns no longer have a functioning newsletter, I want to represent Lil Nouns news via a partnership with my newsletter, The BCheque Papers.
For 3 sponsored editions out of 4 each month (the 1st edition of each month is sponsored by Chimpers) and for an agreement which would last 6 months, it would cost 1 ETH per month: 18 sponsored newsletters; 6 ETH total streamed across the 6 months (cancellable at any point after one month via a new prop) This work would start 8th May 2023 with the payment stream beginning 14th May 2023
This would secure Lil Nouns: (i) position as a headline partner; and (ii) a sponsored post in each sponsored newsletter.
The Newsletter Details:
- written for 67 weeks in a row
- 1,800+ subscribers
- 1,100 - 1,300 views per week
- +40% open rate
- first major partner is Chimpers
Who Am I:
I am a qualified teacher and commercial lawyer in the UK. I have been a successful NFT trader in the space since early 2021. Now I manage my assets, write my newsletter every Friday, and produce my daily news segment ‘The Snapshot’ every day on Twitter for my 5,000+ followers.
Some of the most prominent leaders & creators in the space have recognised my work:
NFTStats from PROOF:
Signal from The Nifty:
Tyler from Lucky Trader: 
Finally, I am a regular contributor in the Lil Nouns community as I share my daily Snapshot of news in the chat each day, and I have also supported the wider ecosystem by appearing on both TNS and TLNS where I was asked to share my journey as a solopreneur building out my writing business.
How would the partnership work?
(i) At the very top of each sponsored newsletter there will be a banner with the Lil Nouns logo 
(ii) Each sponsored newsletter will contain a sponsored post about something interesting happening in the Lil Nouns ecosystem that week 
(iii) 3 sponsored editions out of 4 each month (the 1st edition of each month is sponsored by Chimpers)
(iv) Each sponsored newsletter would be shared more widely on Twitter via a thread. This is how I turned a sponsored post for Chimpers into a successful thread (97 likes; 25 retweets; 2 bookmarks)
How will we measure success?
Substack provides excellent data.
This graph shows since the turn of the year I have grown by more than 600 subscribers. 
I will continue to monitor this and do my best to push growth - as I have been for the last 67 weeks.
In addition, I will work with the DAO to optimise for the best content and CTAs as we learn more from reader reactions to the content.
Why is this so important?
- Lil Nouns needs more media outside of its bubble. I can provide an audience - and keep growing an audience - that will be looking at Lil Nouns with fresh eyes.
- Lil Nouns is complicated. I am uniquely positioned to clarify some of this DAO’s complexities.
- Lil Nouns needs more written content for us to rally around. We no longer have a newsletter. We don’t have routine written content which is easily shareable. This has to be rectified to proliferate the meme.
