LeeRubensteinon Ask HN: What's the business model for a Tumblelog?

We do have an email list, it has approx. 7,500 people on it. Every time we come out with a new product we send people an email. the open rate is about 25%

EatSleepDraw receives over 500,000 page-views per month. We Net approx. $700-900 per month from advertising, merch and memberships each month. Selling limited edition mini pocket sketchbooks works the best ( http://bit.ly/NGajo8 ).

I do have an idea for a mobile app, but I never heard of a tumblelog having a mobile app. It would be super simple, just a feed of the site and you could log in via your tumblr account submit via camera.

yes, every time we have a new item in the shop we highlight it.
