Beginner friendly: Moderate

Starting an email newsletter business can be relatively easy for beginners with no special skills or background. Platforms like Mailchimp or ConvertKit offer user-friendly interfaces to create and send newsletters. There are many online resources like tutorials on YouTube and guides on Reddit that can help beginners get started. The key challenge could be building a subscriber list, which requires consistent content creation and promotion. Costs range from $0 to $50 for advanced features. With dedication, beginners can start earning within 2 weeks by monetizing their newsletter through affiliate marketing or sponsored content. I'd rate it a 2 because while it's accessible to beginners, it does require consistent effort to build a subscriber base and start earning.
