HustleCon's Rapid Success
Share
Sam Parr shares how he successfully launched HustleCon from scratch with no existing audience.
"When I first did HustleCon, I charged $300 and I was a nobody. I didn't have an email list, I had nothing. I got the right speakers and I was able to get 400 people to come, and that was only in 6 weeks' time. I think it's actually significantly easier than you think if you go into a niche to just tell a handful of people and those handful of people tell a handful of people."

In 2016, he founded The Hustle, a business news media company that started in his kitchen with just $12 and grew to eight figures in revenue.
Sam led the charge in making newsletters popular when few believed in their potential.
After four successful years, he sold The Hustle to HubSpot, a publicly traded company. Now operating as HubSpot Media, The Hustle reaches 3 million readers daily, employs a team of nearly 100, and has been the launchpad for dozens of its staff to found their own media companies and newsletters.
