The Generate Pro theme is a Genesis Framework Theme built for bloggers in the latest news/marketing industry. This is a minimalistic design with a focus on the content as well as gaining email subscribers. Email marketing can really help make a business or blog successful if done right.
Generate Pro showcases an autoresponder box under the secondary navigation bar, which is a prime location to collect email address. You can even use this widget in the provided sidebar. Though this theme is simple, it could be the perfect option for you. You can display the autoresponder box at the end of each blog post or even stick AdSense in that location. Get creative with this theme. Consider it a blank canvas and make this them your own.
