01Executive Summary

A two-phase plan for both sides of the business.

Good Grit has built a loyal Southern audience and a growing tiered advertising business, but advertisers now expect guaranteed delivery and proof of ROI — not just placements. NPS proposes a two-phase engagement: Phase 1 backs Good Grit's advertiser packages with paid media and newsletter execution.

Phase 2 applies that same expertise to grow Good Grit's own subscriber base. Phase 1 is billed per campaign as advertiser volume dictates; Phase 2 runs at a discounted $985/month — one partner managing performance media on both sides of the business.

03Understanding

What we're solving for.

01

Advertiser packages need proof, not just placement

Good Grit's tiered packages combine digital ads, editorial, Instagram posts and stories, and newsletter inclusion. Higher-tier clients expect guaranteed impressions/clicks and a 30-day post-campaign ROI report — commitments the team needs reliable execution and reporting to back up.

02

Subscription growth is the next opportunity

Good Grit is transitioning subscription management from WooCommerce to a new partner, Fulco. With roughly 709 organic subscribers today at a $14.99/year magazine price, there's clear room to grow the direct subscriber base once that transition is complete.

03

Brand control matters, but trust can be built

Like most magazines, Good Grit wants to protect creative and brand control. The team is open to delegating paid media and newsletter execution to a partner who proves it can work within their guidelines over time.

04Services

Proposed scope of work.

Phase 1 — Advertiser Campaign Management (paid media & newsletter)
1.1

Paid Media Campaign Management (Meta)

NPS manages paid social execution for each advertiser campaign sold within Good Grit's digital packages, built around audience targeting and creative tailored to that advertiser's goals.

  • Audience targeting and segmentation per advertiser campaign
  • Ad creative development and testing within advertiser brand guidelines
  • Campaign setup, pacing, and optimization across the agreed flight
  • Performance reporting on clicks and conversions — not just impressions — benchmarked against advertiser-specific KPIs
1.2

Email Newsletter Creative & Deployment

NPS designs and deploys advertiser newsletter inclusions through Good Grit's existing email CMS, freeing the in-house creative team's bandwidth for other priorities.

  • Newsletter creative development for advertiser inclusions
  • Deployment through Good Grit's existing email CMS
  • Newsletter performance data folded into the same cross-channel reporting as paid media

Per-campaign inputs needed from Good Grit / advertiser: campaign duration, ad spend budget, brand guidelines (fonts, logos, etc.), and campaign goals (CTR, impressions, purchases, etc.).

Phase 2 — Subscription Growth Campaign
2.1

Paid Social Subscriber Acquisition

NPS runs Meta acquisition campaigns aimed directly at growing Good Grit's subscriber base, timed to align with the transition to the new subscription management partner.

  • Campaign strategy driving traffic to Good Grit's subscription offer
  • Audience targeting built around Good Grit's current subscriber profile and lookalike audiences
  • Creative development and testing for acquisition-specific messaging
  • Monthly reporting on subscriber growth, cost per order, and traffic-to-conversion performance

  3. 03Schedule a kickoff call to align on Phase 1 asset-intake process and Phase 2 timing

11In Closing

Strong brands. Trusted execution. Two paths to growth.

Good Grit has done the hard part: it built a loyal Southern readership and an advertiser base willing to pay for premium placements. What's needed now is the execution muscle to back up what's already being sold — and the same discipline applied to growing the subscriber file directly.

NPS is ready to bring paid media expertise, newsletter execution, and unified reporting to both sides of Good Grit's business.
