Hi! I'm Kit, and I'm the incoming owner of Pear- a research service saving indie advertisers time and money by finding newsletter, podcast and Patreon creators actively seeking sponsorship opportunities. Pear is a straightforward but effective online business which launched right here on PH back in 2017! How are we making Pear differentiated and useful? - The goal: help advertisers, makers and indie hackers connect with creators actively seeking sponsorship, so they can grow together - More platforms- like newsletters, Podcast and Patreon ads are booming and can offer outstanding value for indie advertisers, so we're including databases for them too - Focused- no direct sales, programmatic placements or mediated discussions, just find relevant creators and connect with them outside of Pear - Active- skip the scroll through hundreds of dead/inactive channels, and focus on a smaller number of relevant creators - Occasional discounts- from time to time, unearthing discounted ad slots for our subscribers so they can test growth channels for less - Quality-of-life improvements; update card details & 1-click unsubscription within the app I'm working to build Pear into the product I would have loved to use while growing my first online startup, where creator marketing was far more effective at driving sign-ups than any of over a dozen other channels I tried- but also by far the most time and money intensive. Pear's directories are sourced from a combination of direct submissions from creators, and public requests for sponsorship found online by Pear's tools and researchers. Importantly, everything is screened for recent activity. If you run an email newsletter, podcast or Patreon and you're seeking advertising sponsors, you can reach our audience of advertisers here: Newsletters: https://airtable.com/shrlHA7whfN... Podcasts: https://airtable.com/shrsvCHd0AW... Patreon accounts: https://airtable.com/shrTj4Rcs29... Pear was listed on Tiny Acquisitions earlier this year, which was where I picked up the baton from founder Andrew, and began to build on the work he and Csaba had done to expand from the original MVP. I had previously encountered Pear while doing my own marketing research, so I was keen to make Pear my first acquisition and test some of my theories about how indie advertisers could benefit from a research service like Pear. Since 2017, all sorts of businesses and makers have used Pear, but the most common themes have been Software companies and indie hackers (~18%), Ecommerce sites (~15%), SAAS companies and start-ups (~15%), Digital marketing agencies (~13%) and newsletters looking to grow their readership (~10%). If you join Pear in the next 48 hours, we're offering a lifetime 50% discount on our all access plan featuring the Podcast and Patreon sponsorship directories.
