Answering the questions I get asked the most about newsletters.

I only “niched down” to focus on newsletters in April 2022.

It’s been 7 whole months.

But niching down to focus on this topic was the best thing I have done for my newsletter. It’s helped me…

→ focus my content
→ grow the newsletter
→ position my brand as a bit of a “Newsletter Guy”

All huge wins I was struggling with before finding my niche.

But it’s also 10x’d the amount of questions I get about newsletters!

So I want to answer some of those questions here. Let’s dive in!

#1: What growth strategies are you trying?

I keep this relatively simple. But here’s what I’ve tried and found most effective lately:

  1. Cross-promotions with other newsletters. I added a Newsletter of the Week section in GC⚡ a few months ago. It’s my defacto cross-promotion spot — and when it’s not being used for cross-promo, I’ll throw in a SparkLoop partner (affiliate link) for some potential revenue.
  2. Sharing my articles/threads (content)
