What is your newsletter about? What frequency? How do you go about growing it?

Every Tuesday, I write a well-researched email containing top software engineering reads that help my subscribers to stay up to date and deepen their knowledge. https://www.michaelagreiler.com/subscribe/

I'm still tweaking the format here and there.

Even I'm not sure what my newsletter is about! It's mostly a collection of what I'm 📚 reading, 🎵 listening to, and 🎮 find interesting. https://buttondown.email/swap/archive/ I aim to put out a new post every week but this month has been hard due to some personal challenges. I've not thought much about growing it as I see it as a learning opportunity for now (might change after a few months!). 😅

I relaunched mine for Two Makers (https://mailchi.mp/80a197d266d6/twomakers) a few weeks ago.

I'm doing some tests on the format/content to see what works best but for now every issue is sent every 2 weeks and is made of 2 parts: 1) Updates about our work and/or an article we wrote and 2) Links to articles/products we find interesting.

I'd like to find more subscribers so I should find ways to promote it.

Obviously I also run the Women Make newsletter 😁

It's about what I learn and work on. With a focus on creativity, empathy and self-improvement 😊

Frequency will probably be 1/month.

I haven't thought about how to grow it yet. Probably writing articles that redirect to the newsletter form.

Yup, just started 😉👋
