Subject: Zapier x Tech & Founder Weekly — Saw your 11x renewal on Ben's Bites ($38 CPM 3-Flight Pilot) Hi Zapier Partnerships Team (Creator Partnerships Lead), I track verified sponsorship renewals across Daily AI Tools, Workflows & Launches via SponsorRadar, and noticed Zapier has run 11 verified flights on Ben's Bites (zapier.com/bensbites | code: BENSBITES) at an estimated ~$58 CPM. Because multi-flight renewals signal strong promo-code and vanity-URL conversion with Daily AI Tools, Workflows & Launches buyers, I wanted to share an high-intent audience arbitrage opportunity with Tech & Founder Weekly: • Verified Reach: 75,000 active subscribers/listeners per release • Audience Fit: High concentration of B2B SaaS decision-makers & technical buyers • De-Risked 3-Flight Pilot: 3x 60-second Host-Read Mid-Rolls + Dedicated Vanity Slug (zapier.com/techfounde) + Custom Promo Code • Pilot Rate: $8,514 total for 3 flights ($38 effective CPM — 15% below category benchmark of $51 CPM) • Conversion Guarantee: If your vanity URL doesn't hit your baseline click-through benchmark across the first 3 flights, we run a 4th make-good insertion free.
