Hi all,
I just recently hit my one-year ‘anniversary’ for this newsletter since officially starting it at the end of last year. Some of you still reading were my first email subscribers, and I want to say a special thanks to you guys. A double thanks also to my paying subscribers, some of who have been with me since the first month.
Unlike many other newsletters, I don’t really promote this newsletter through channels like Reddit or Facebook, where I constantly see people trying to self-promote. When I first started this, I wanted to grow organically in a ‘peaceful’ manner without needing to be intrusive.
For that reason, I’ve promoted mainly using:
My bio on my Twitter (and any WoM)
My bio in Medium and occasionally at the end of my articles
Pinning my Newsletter on my Quora Spaces
Since starting from 0 subscribers, we’ve reached over 700+ email subscribers to this newsletter. We would actually be over 1000+, but I’ve purposely removed people who have been inactive with the newsletter.
Ironically content-wise, it seems like as long as I stick to startups, marketing or tech, everyone seems to be happy. This could be both a listicle all the way to cool insights or opinions.
For this reason, I will continue doing this as we head into next year.
Once again, I just wanted to say thanks, and of course, I will continue writing, and hopefully, we’ll hit 1000 email subscribers soon in 2022!
Talk to you soon,
Richard (CornerTech and Marketing)
