3 months ago I learned about Substack Newsletters and started my own newsletter The Snippet to start sharing my experiences from a decade of building and managing products, but in newsletter format.
Last week I hit 100 subscribers and today I am at 140!
I have been writing one post each week, and I must say I am really enjoying the newsletter format. I have nearly 2K followers on medium, but the crazy thing is that unlike medium followers, I feel a special bond with each subscriber that signs up, after all, they've kinda said "hey! I want to read more from you". Newsletters are powerful.
I have recently started promoting my newsletter more too - mostly on PM groups in Reddit and Facebook but the sub growth so far has mostly been word of mouth like the one below. Thank you Eleonore!
Each week I send a post about one of the following topics
Ideas in Product Management - my experiments, successes and failures
How to build things and automate work with code and no-code tools.
Simplifying big and complex ideas that are changing our world
My experiences building and scaling products, running product teams and working across geographies.
If any of these topics are of interest to you here's a link to The Snippet. Check it out!
Thanks for reading!
