# Plan your First 1000 campaign

We provide this practical brief for AI tools, product launches, and research sponsorships.

## 90,000 subscribers. Builders at every stage.

Reach early-stage founders and growth teams, including YC and Speedrun founders and readers at Fortune 500 companies, FAANG, and frontier AI labs.

## Is this the right audience?

First 1000 follows a Duolingo PM building Lazyweb toward 1,000 paying customers. Campaigns work best when they connect to work our readers do: building products, evaluating AI tools, improving onboarding, or finding customers.

Start with a concrete job your product helps a founder or operator finish. A broad brand message is harder to assess than a demo, a useful resource, or a clear reason to try the product.

## Prepare your brief

### Product and audience

Explain what you are promoting and who it is useful for.

### One objective

Choose one measurable action, such as a qualified trial, a product demo, a research download, or another action you can measure.

### Offer and proof

Include the destination URL, one specific benefit, relevant evidence, and any eligibility or pricing conditions.

### Format

Propose a newsletter sponsorship, product launch, research or report, or another format.

### Budget and timing

Share your available range, preferred dates, and any launch deadline.

## Before committing

When you send your brief, ask us for current availability, pricing, placement details, and recent campaign results. Agree on deliverables and measurement before booking.

## Send the plan

Our inquiry asks for your work email, company or product, campaign type, budget or timing, and campaign notes. Put the objective, destination, and proof in your notes.
