Honestly, I take it easy with some promotions because I prefer subscribers who like to read long-form and try to "pull them in" to the story.
The goal is not to have everybody that's why:
– I haven't scrapped emails
– I haven't used any lead magnet
– I even do not have a website with a sign-up form
Instead I:
– have a clear CTA
– contribute frequently
– curate content for everyone
– leave a link in the comments
Despite the lower number I managed to get sponsors.
What is your strategy when it comes to growing subscribers and how do you use a newsletter (more of a promo or writing stories)?
