Subject: HubSpot x Tech & Founder Weekly — Saw your 22x renewal on My First Million ($40 CPM 3-Flight Pilot) Hi HubSpot Partnerships Team (VP Podcast Network & Media), I track verified sponsorship renewals across B2B CRM & Marketing via SponsorRadar, and noticed HubSpot has run 22 verified flights on My First Million (hubspot.com/mfm | code: MFM) at an estimated ~$58 CPM. Because multi-flight renewals signal strong promo-code and vanity-URL conversion with B2B CRM & Marketing 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 (hubspot.com/techfounde) + Custom Promo Code • Pilot Rate: $9,108 total for 3 flights ($40 effective CPM — 15% below category benchmark of $54 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. Worth a quick 10-minute look at our Q4/Q1 attribution deck this Thursday? Best, [Your Name] Tech & Founder Weekly • Verified via SponsorRadar Intelligence
