Subject: WHOOP x Tech & Founder Weekly — Saw your 12x renewal on Huberman Lab ($33 CPM 3-Flight Pilot) Hi WHOOP Partnerships Team (Head of Audio & Athlete Media), I track verified sponsorship renewals across Biometric Wearable via SponsorRadar, and noticed WHOOP has run 12 verified flights on Huberman Lab (join.whoop.com/huberman | code: HUBERMAN) at an estimated ~$54 CPM. Because multi-flight renewals signal strong promo-code and vanity-URL conversion with Biometric Wearable 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 DTC Fitness decision-makers & technical buyers • De-Risked 3-Flight Pilot: 3x 60-second Host-Read Mid-Rolls + Dedicated Vanity Slug (whoop.com/techfounde) + Custom Promo Code • Pilot Rate: $7,326 total for 3 flights ($33 effective CPM — 15% below category benchmark of $44 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
