Hey there,
A short note about something changing on 1 October.
From that date, The Creator’s Blueprint moves to a paid subscription for most of what I publish.
Here is exactly what that means.
Paid subscribers get 2 posts a week.
The full deep dives. The reverse-engineered financials, the cap table waterfalls, the cohort models, the deal structures pulled out of filings nobody else is reading. Everything I have been publishing, twice a week instead of once.
Free subscribers will only have access to one post a month.
Why the change, honestly.
These pieces take real work. The OVO breakdown meant reading 4 exhibits attached to an 8-K to find a price every outlet reported as undisclosed. The IM8 piece meant building a full cohort waterfall from 20 months of disclosed retention data. The Gymshark analysis meant constructing an enterprise value bridge to separate what revenue growth created from what multiple compression destroyed, because those are two completely different stories and only one of them is the founder’s fault.
That work is the reason you read this rather than the version of the same story that ran everywhere else. I want to do more of it and go deeper, and that only works if it is funded properly.
So here is the offer.
40% off an annual subscription, until midnight on 30 September 2026
https://www.creatorsblueprint.co/subscribe?coupon=248ce3f8
The link closes the night before the paywall goes up. After that the rate returns to normal and there is no way back to this price.
12 months at the discounted rate between now and next October, including everything I have planned on the deals nobody else is analysing properly.
If you have ever forwarded one of these to a colleague, used a framework from one in a pitch, or changed a decision because of something in here, this is the part where I ask you to back it.
And if the free tier is right for you, that is completely fine. You will still get a piece a month and I am glad you are here.
Thank you for reading this year. Genuinely.
David
