A publication built to find the signal.

Pinnacle Digest is an investment publication and video channel followed by more than 100,000 investors, covering macro shifts, commodity cycles, and emerging ventures. I designed and built the website that organizes its analysis, video, and newsletter into one home.

Overview

A content engine for serious investors.

Pinnacle Digest produces a steady stream of written analysis and video interviews across macro, energy, mining, crypto, and venture capital. The site had to make that volume browsable and convert readers into newsletter subscribers.

The design balances a content-heavy publication with a clear funnel into the free weekly newsletter that anchors the audience.

The challenge

A lot of content, and one job: grow the list.

An investment publication lives or dies by its newsletter list. The challenge was organizing a high volume of articles, categories, and video into a browsable site that still drives readers toward subscribing, without feeling like a content dump.
