šŸ’Œ Who Do You Love?

Knowing, Growing & Loving Your Subscribers

In partnership with

šŸ‘‹ Welcome

Who do you love?

Itā€™s OK, you can say it - Iā€™m not going to tell your spouse or partner (although this may test how closely my wife reads this newsletter)..

Itā€™s your newsletter subscribers of course!

We invest hours researching and writing our newsletters to serve our subscribers every week because we care about them. This issue is dedicated to showing subscribers the TLC they deserve to grow your newsletter and revenues while getting to know your subscribers better, and in some cases saying goodbye when that time has come.

Events are a great way to meet existing and potential subscribers, and so here are 2 events being hosted in NYC and the UK which are of interest to every newsletter operator, with remote options available too. Iā€™ll be attending both (virtually for Affiliate Gathering) and would love to meet you! :

  • Affiliate Gathering: Affiliate commissions are an important source of newsletter revenue, so donā€™t miss this virtual and in-person gathering of affiliate marketers, content creators and niche website entrepreneurs on May 10. Virtual and in-person passes are available so register now!

  • The Newsletter Conference: This conference is happening this week (May 3rd) in NYC! Save $100 when you register with code BUSINESS and get a free copy of The Newsletter Is The Business ($147 value).

Iā€™m delighted to welcome back this weekā€™s sponsor, Hubspot! Newsletter Business supports using AI as a complement to and not replacement for authentic creator craftsmanship. HubSpot has integrated such AI capabilities in its platform and is also offering practical guidance to creators in the free guide ā€œSupercharge Your Workday With ChatGPTā€ that offers 100 useful ChatGPT prompts.

Please reply and let me know your thoughts on this weekā€™s content - or reach out via our brand new X/Twitter handle @NewsletterBus.

Enjoy and see you next issue!
