Book a Sponsor sends 13,600 pitches in a week, brand yes-rate up 229% for creators

Book a Sponsor founder dooyle shared that the service now pitches sponsors on behalf of 100 newsletters, podcasts, and YouTube creators, with a record 13,600 pitches in one week and brand "yes" responses to media kits up 229%.
The platform previously sent 36,700 pitches in 30 days, putting roughly $73k in potential sponsorships in play (estimated at $530 per main ad slot, not actual earnings; clients booked 4 deals averaging $282). It also added 6,400 brands sponsoring YouTube and podcasts. The biggest problem: creators who get a "yes" don't know how to close, so the team is building a "close-for-you" feature to make the process as close to "free money" for creators as possible.
