"At 100,000 subscribers and a 50% open rate" this seems high but achievable. I find as my subs increase, my open rate goes down. I started with a 65% open rate, and now I'm below 50%
Totally doable! Industry averages sit around 45-50% but really depends on lead quality and how well the top of funnel content speaks to the audience. Of the 200+ emails I’ve sent with newsletter I’m anywhere from 43-51% OR and consistently a 4.5ish CTR
Any suggestions for attracting advertisers to paid spots in the newsletter? I’ve don’t the hard part of sending thousands of daily emails with 70+% open rates. Now I just need advertisers 😅
I love the thinking process Ryan and how you nail down your niche. Also love how you plan the next steps for your newsletter. You're open to share your progress and your work. Looking forward to read more about it. This is an instant subscribe and follow
I absolutely loved the Venn diagram, and I liked that you picked a few specific niches that all work together. Even though I'm in the make money online niche, I enjoy seeing something different. It gets ideas flowing for me of how I can break out of the MMO box and differentiate myself.
This is my entire content strategy from now until forever. I’m sick of reading the same ol nonsense on social. Appreciate you Christina! Plenty more to come
Solid tips. Sounds like Mother Earth Magazine on steroids.
Heyyyy appreciate you Chris. Haven't heard of MEM before...going to dig into that this weekend thank you.
Thanks Ryan. It's actually Mother Earth News. https://www.motherearthnews.com/

Love this Ryan and rooting for you!
