Janel from BrainPint gave me a Shout-out!

This was such a big surprise! It made my WHOLE MONTH!!

Got around 10 subscribers every minute. Almost 150+ subscribers in a day or two! Reached 300+ subscribers at this point.

I'll always be grateful to @Janel for giving me this shout-out. I had so many doubts regarding whether I'm going in the right direction or not with my newsletter. But this shout-out gave me all the hope in the world and pushed me to write better and be consistent!

Suggestion:

  • Always give shout-outs to up and coming newsletters. They'll be forever indebted to you! Show them love. They deserve it for their efforts.

  • I started taking cross-promotions seriously after this. You'll get the most dedicated readers through cross-promotions if you're careful with who you choose to promote with.

  • Don't care about how big or small other newsletter is. Just make sure you both have at least one or two common topics.

  • Don't be shy in reaching out to others for cross-promotions if you both talk about common topics. 99% of them are going to collaborate with you. Just be nice. If they say no, still BE NICE!
