In this session, we answered audience questions about newsletters, growth, ROI, lead magnets, AI in email, overcoming writing fears, and building creator businesses that last. QUESTIONS WE ANSWERED These are the questions we tackled during the livestream: Do newsletter writers need to have a podcast and/or YouTube channel to succeed? Should creators focus on one platform first, or spread across multiple? What’s was our ROI and ROF (Return on Fun) of running a podcast for a year?

How do subject lines affect open rates for new vs. long-time subscribers? What’s one thing newsletter creators over-invest in? What’s one thing newsletter creators under-invest in? What is the most important metric you track in your ESP? What metrics matter more than open rate? How are AI features in Apple Mail and Gmail changing how people interact with newsletters? ...and more!
