Forbes Daily newsletter is approaching 1 million subscribers

Mike Federle

Forbes flagship newsletter Forbes Daily is approaching 1 million subscribers, CEO Mike Federle said in his annual video to Forbes employees.

“Our newsletter strategy has produced great results,” said Federle.

Last month, an $800 million deal to sell Forbes Media Group to a group of investors led by American tech executive Austin Russell fell through. But Federle implied in the video that the company will continue to be on the market.

“Interest in our future has never been greater, and for good reason,” said Federle. “I know we will have more interested buyers in the future.”

He also noted that the company will exceed its revenue and earnings goals for 2023, but did not divulge specific numbers.
