Long time followers of the content creator community will know how I've darted from one idea to the next in here, trying different things over the last 6 months.
Anyway you might remember I was looking into launching an email newsletter. After a few months of research, I found a specific niche that I knew a lot about and wasn't very saturated at all in this format.
I weighed up going with substack like most people do, but decided it wasn't the right platform for this and it doesn't really have any of the features I need. This does mean I need to generate all my own traffic and lose out on the discoverability benefits on there.
I chose Beehiiv as my hosting platform/service provider with a custom domain and branding. After a couple of months of building and writing the first 5 issues in advance, I launched on Friday morning!
I'm running a small advertising campaign over the weekend and I'm thrilled as I have already had over 50 sign ups in the first 48 hours.
I'm not going to post the newsletter on here as this isn't meant to promote it, I don't want to give the niche away so early and also it's not really on any subject that JA covers.
However, I just wanted to say, you might not know it, but the community on here and the JA staff have been a big inspiration in keeping me motivated to get this far and launch this. Thank you everyone!
I am now a content creator with a fast growing audience!
