A highly engaged, action-taking audience of online business owners who trust recommendations, come to build their tech stack, and stay loyal.
Kate Kordsmeier is a former journalist, ICF-accredited business coach, and the woman behind Success with Soul — a thriving media brand and coaching company helping 5,900+ entrepreneurs build profitable, low-maintenance online businesses using SEO, email marketing, automation, and AI instead of social media.
Kate quit social media in 2021 and has since built her entire business through ethical marketing, stellar content, and genuine community. Her audience follows her lead. When Kate recommends a tool, her readers buy it — and they stick around.
Success with Soul reaches entrepreneurs across a weekly newsletter, a high-traffic SEO blog, a private Skool community, and live implementation events called Get It Done Weeks — making it one of the few platforms that touches its audience at every stage of the buyer journey.
Sent 3–7x per week to 12k+ subscribers who actually open it — one of the highest open rates in the entrepreneurship space. No fluff, no filler.
Search-optimized content on building sustainable businesses. Readers are actively searching for solutions — and finding Kate’s recommendations when they do.
A free bonus community exclusively for paying clients and students — every single member has already purchased something from Kate. High trust, zero tire-kickers.
Monthly live events where paying mastermind members ($197/month) implement specific tools and systems in real time. The highest-converting placement we offer — attendees are actively hands-on-keyboard when your brand is featured.
Kate’s comprehensive self-study course and resource library. Tool recommendations embedded in the curriculum convert exceptionally well — students are in active implementation mode.
A real-time look at Kate’s business systems, revenue, and tools — with full transparency on what she uses and why. Subscribers are process-obsessed and tool-curious.
“Partnering with Kate has been one of the best decisions our company has made. She consistently delivers immense value to our community of prospects and customers through engaging and educational content, and we’re honored to work so closely with her as a trusted partner.”
Kate’s audience doesn’t passively scroll past ads — they come to her for recommendations. When she uses and endorses a tool, her readers trust that endorsement because she’s built her entire business on radical transparency. There’s no paid-placement ambiguity here: everything Kate partners with, she uses herself.
Customers referred by Kate don’t just convert — they stay. Because they come in with a clear understanding of the tool’s purpose (thanks to Kate’s implementation-focused content), their onboarding is smoother, their success rate is higher, and their churn is lower. Many upgrade to higher plans as their businesses grow.
Kate’s audience found her through search engines and email — not an algorithm. They came looking, they subscribed intentionally, and they’ve stayed. This isn’t a casual following; it’s a curated community of serious business builders.
Kate doesn’t slap your logo in a sidebar. She weaves partnerships into her actual content — showing her audience how she uses your tool in her own business, inside live events, and through real-world demonstrations.
This audience is in constant learning mode. They show up to Get It Done Weeks, buy courses, and read 4,000-word blog posts. When your product is introduced as a solution to a real problem, the buying decision is easy.
SEO placements live forever. Email recommendations get forwarded. Curriculum mentions convert students for years. Unlike social media sponsorships, a partnership with SWS keeps paying off long after the campaign ends.
Kate shares affiliate dashboards, link data, and anecdotal feedback openly with partners. No opaque metrics — just honest performance data you can actually use to make decisions.
Get It Done Weeks are unlike any other placement: your audience isn’t reading about your tool while commuting — they’re setting it up, right then, with Kate’s guidance. That’s a user who is activated, not just aware.
All packages include affiliate tracking, performance reporting, and Kate’s genuine personal endorsement. Custom packages available on request.
Best for: testing the audience with low commitment before scaling up to a larger partnership.
Best for: tools that benefit from live demonstration. The highest-converting placement we offer.
Best for: brands ready to build real presence and trust across multiple touchpoints over a quarter. Significant savings vs. à la carte.
Best for: brands seeking category-exclusive, year-round presence across Kate’s entire ecosystem. Custom plans available — reach out to discuss.
All packages can be combined with affiliate commission structures — meaning you can offset upfront costs through revenue sharing. Kate’s partners see above-average affiliate performance due to high audience trust and implementation-focused content. Custom packages are available — if none of these fit your goals or budget perfectly, reach out and we’ll build something that does.
Kate only partners with tools and services she uses, has used, or genuinely believes in. This protects audience trust — which is ultimately what makes the partnership valuable.
Reach out via email. We’ll confirm fit and availability for your category.
We’ll determine which placements make the most sense for your goals and budget.
Kate writes all copy personally — you’ll review before it goes live. No templates, no robot voice.
Content goes out across agreed placements. Tracking links are set up for full transparency.
You get open rates, click data, and affiliate performance. No guessing games.
Kate recommended Poppy AI in her newsletter and I signed up the same day. I’d been on the fence for months, but her explanation of how she actually uses it in her own business made it click. Six months later, I’m still using it and have referred three people.
What I love about Kate is that she only recommends things she actually uses. Her GIDW with Kartra was the reason I finally got my funnel set up. Having her walk through it live, in real time, with us was worth 10 YouTube tutorials.
I’ve bought every single tool Kate has recommended in two years because she takes the time to explain the why, not just the what. It’s not marketing — it’s coaching. And I always feel like she’s thought through whether it’s right for someone like me.
When Kate introduced me to MailMeteor during Get It Done Week, I had my account set up and my first campaign live before the call ended. That’s the power of implementation-first content. There’s nothing else like it.
Let’s talk about what a partnership could look like for your brand. Spots are limited — Kate keeps her partner list intentional to protect audience trust.
