“From our perspective, much of this relies heavily on the establishment of Psychedelic Spotlight into the premiere news, information, and resource authority for all things psychedelics. We began the year with a fresh, realigned growth strategy for the platform that emphasized the element of accomplishing more with less without sacrificing the quality of our content that our loyal viewers, listeners, and readers come to expect from us. In that context, the KPIs generated by Psychedelic Spotlight last month are, we believe, an emphatic statement regarding both our strategy and our team’s ability to achieve new milestones efficiently and effectively despite challenging initiatives and turbulent sector and macroeconomic headwinds. Successfully overcoming these odds is one of several essential reasons why we’re confident in our team’s ability to continue to follow through on our objective of being the multimedia platform that owns the majority of market share in this growing space. 

Some of what we plan to share in the weeks and months ahead will help illustrate and clarify the revenue model we’re developing for PSYC and exactly how and why Psychedelic Spotlight’s increasing market share will play a vital role in maximizing near and long-term monetization. From consumer-facing opportunities to B2B, we are truly committed to leveraging Psychedelic Spotlight’s presence and authority to build a powerful revenue model that is every bit as reasonable as it is attainable for a media-focused company such as PSYC.”

In a matter of weeks, we managed to propel ourselves up the ranks on Google Search and News—attesting not only our ability to take quick action and make on the fly adjustments, but also demonstrating the commitment from everyone involved solidifying us as an authority in psychedelic media coverage while simultaneously executing our content strategy. Psychedelic Spotlight continues to present psychedelic culture, policy, research, and industry news in a captivating manner without sacrificing integrity. I'm beyond proud of what we’ve achieved so rapidly; this is a pure example of our team's capacity to execute while the psychedelic industry is undergoing trying times."

Hebbert concluded with the following: “From an operational standpoint, we made significant adjustments to lower our burn rate while doubling down on the media content our core audience is demanding to consume. In tandem with operating a lean media machine, we've reached the farthest corners of burgeoning interests and adjacent psychographics, where we see a convergence in alternative healing modalities and psychedelics. We know who our current and future content consumers are; that understanding is our leverage.”
