Unlocking the Power of Owning Your Newsletter

Social platforms are great, but owning your list means you can directly reach your audience.

Overview

Control Over Reach: Algorithm-Proof Communication

After experimenting with a LinkedIn newsletter and gaining over 750 subscribers through weekly posts in two months, I'm expanding my own newsletter on Beehiiv. This platform offers a longer format that's more accessible and easier to manage, making it perfect for promoting content and building deeper connections with my audience.

I love how easy it is to move things around, create custom templates, and receive notifications about subscription data and growth. As someone who has created blogs on Medium, Substack, and LinkedIn newsletter, I find Beehiiv particularly user-friendly.

Resources

  • Audience Segmentation: Deliver more relevant content based on subscriber interests

  • Analytics Dashboard: Track what works and refine your approach with data
