Your Newsletter Should Be Shorter
Way shorter
Your Newsletter is WAY Too Long
When most people think of newsletters, they typically think it needs to take 10+ hours to craft, include 5 or more thoroughly researched sections, and be beefed up with 2,000 words that hits on every single layer imaginable (every single issue).
But you know what I think? People want newsletters that can be consumed in less than 60 seconds.
If you make your newsletter extremely easy to digest, then more people will open it and consume, because they know they won’t need to give you 10 valuable minutes from their lives.
Sure, there are exceptions. There are a few newsletters that I will read time and time again, word for word, regardless of how long they are (like Big Desk Energy, which I highly recommend you subscribe to).
But let’s be real. We all have the same 24 hours in a day, and if you’re anything like me, you get 200 newsletters delivered to your inbox every week.
I simply can’t read them all every time.

Goal: 60 seconds per newsletter
By the way, my newsletters are going to be ~200 words moving forward.
The goal is for you to open, consume, and finish in about one minute.
Hopefully you stick around and learn something.
If you haven’t already subscribed, join over 2,000 others now.
Until next time!
