Founder, Marketing

growing beehiiv, the world's most powerful newsletter software

I’m Daniel Berk, a sales wizard, GTM visionary, and newsletter overlord who turns startups from garage hobbies into multimillion-dollar empires. Currently dominating at beehiiv, I’ve built teams, obliterated revenue targets, and helped creators like Arnold (yes, that Arnold) use beehiiv to grow newsletters bigger than most countries' GDPs.

Newsletters are my empire — I’ve built them, scaled them, and turned subscribers into superfans with strategies so good they feel illegal. Referral funnels? Magic. Growth hacks? Revolutionary. Email? It works harder than Elon Musk’s PR team.

When I’m not setting open rate records or making deals, I’m advising startups on GTM strategies that don’t just work — they win. Viral campaigns? Check. Social selling? I’ve weaponized LinkedIn and X into unstoppable growth machines. 

Memes + metrics = pure gold.

Let's connect and have a conversation.
