1. How I Started A $140K/Month Flights And Holidays Deals Newsletter (2021) ➜

This is a follow up story for I Know The Pilot. If you're interested in reading how they got started, published almost 4 years ago, check it out here.

Hello again! Remind us who you are and what business you started.

Hi, I’m Garth Adams, founder of I Know The Pilot and I Want That Flight. We send airfare and accommodation deals to our subscribers daily through I Know The Pilot and compare airfares on I Want That Flight. By owning two related sites in the travel space, we have kept the newsletter free while being a profitable business.

I posted our last update roughly a year ago. It talked about the business pre-Covid and what it was like running a travel company during lockdowns and closed borders (both international and domestic here in Australia). Since then, travel has been slowly coming back as vaccinations have been rolled out and travel restrictions gradually eased.

Revenue is now at 70,000 a month and climbing. However, a significant part of that is entirely unrelated to travel. Instead, it is from sites that I bought or developed from scratch to diversify my income in industries that were untouched by the pandemic.
