At 42, Lenny Rachitsky has kicked off a bunch of successful projects.
He started Lenny’s Newsletter in 2019, focusing on product management. This newsletter now has over 570,000 subscribers and brings in more than $500,000 yearly.
Rachitsky spends 10 to 20 hours each week to write just one post.
In 2022, he began Lenny’s Podcast. It airs two episodes a week and features chats with experts in product management, giving really useful advice.
Rachitsky, who puts in about four to five hours a week on the podcast, works with a producer for things like sound work. This part of his business also makes over $500,000 a year.
Rachitsky’s advice for those who want to do well in their own projects, especially in fields that help with professional growth, is to first get a lot of experience in that specific area.
