Broadsheet

About this template

Broadsheet is a website template for newsletter writers. A front page that looks like a paper, an archive of every issue, readable issue pages, and a media kit where sponsors pick open dates and send you a booking request. The signup form talks straight to your newsletter tool.

Good for

Writers on Kit (ConvertKit), Mailchimp, Buttondown, Substack or beehiiv who want their own site

Newsletters that sell sponsorships or classifieds

Podcasts and small media brands with a weekly schedule

Pages

Front page: masthead with volume and issue number, signup, reader numbers, the latest issue, recent issues, letters from readers, a sponsor call-out and the editor

Archive: every issue from the Issues CMS with number, topic and date

Issue: the full letter (rich text from the CMS), signature, a signup box and more issues (6 example issues included)

Sponsor: audience numbers and breakdown bars, open dates and rates, past sponsors, a quote and an enquiry form

Two working components

Subscribe: one email field (optionally a name) that sends to Kit, Buttondown or any webhook (Zapier, Make) directly, to Mailchimp through its signup endpoint, and to Substack through a hidden form. beehiiv only accepts its own form without a private API key, so for beehiiv it shows your beehiiv embed. Success, error and invalid-email states, and a Demo mode that sends nothing.

Ad Slots: your upcoming send dates as a sponsorship calendar. Placements with prices, booked dates or issue numbers, multi-select with a running total, and a booking button that opens your email, form or payment link with the dates, placement and total filled in.

Good to know

Subscribe sends addresses to the newsletter service you choose; Framer doesn't store them.

Ad Slots doesn't take payment or block dates automatically. You list booked dates and confirm bookings yourself.
