Growth has definitely slowed down since the shoutout that helped push to 4000, but incentivizing current subscribers to share by sending a sample of the Weekend Summary newsletter that subscribers with 3 referrals get, we were able to push our subscriber count to 5000.
Currently we are seeing around 50~60% of daily added subscriber count coming from referrals.
Reaching 5000 is a big milestone for us and definitely feel lucky to have such a loyal subscriber base!
