No ads and almost no search: how did a free newsletter reach an author-disclosed 10,000 CHF month?

Product at a glance

What it is
A free Substack newsletter by founder Nicola Amadio about six-figure tech careers in Europe, remote work, taxes and relocation.
Who it is for
Engineers and tech professionals already in Europe or relocating there, who want high-paying roles and a clear view of taxes and relocation costs.
How it charges
The newsletter is free; a paid Substack tier unlocks the EuroTopTech job sheet, coaching is sold separately, and the public home page shows no price.
Business model
Revenue comes from paid subscriptions, the EuroTopTech job sheet and coaching, so the larger the free readership, the more valuable the small paying share.
