One key to high open rates? Write killer subject lines. What I’ve learned writing and editing 750 email subject lines @TheHustle. 🧵...

How did a university with a $1B endowment find itself $31M in the hole? The talented @meganzahneis with a riveting tale of unchecked ambition.

Thanks @jselingo. Big shoes to fill but could not be more excited for the opportunity!

Appreciate that @pebonilla. That @CoachMcRoy piece was one of my favorites too. Elwyn is one of the most resilient coaches I’ve ever met

This idea is great in theory (and there have been past attempts), but the reality is that newsletters work largely BECAUSE they're in your inbox. While not perfect, email is one of the few apps people check constantly. Without that delivery system, newsletters are just blogs.

It might be the start of the week, but we're thinking about endings. Loved this newsletter from @bradwolverton about the best newsletter kickers that build reader habits. newsletterexamples.co/p/4-pe…

Spoke at a newsletter conference. There were about 15 ex Hustle employees there. They now run agencies, media companies, or other businesses in the space. Many are now millionaires or pay themselves wonderfully and can spend time with their families. I’m incredibly proud of what we did at The Hustle. It wasn’t some big grandiose thing where we went to mars, but in our little media industry we pioneered a new way of doing stuff and made our own path that others now can follow. I’m proud that we hired a bunch of wacky and smart 20 something’s and we all learned a bunch of shit together and have gone on to implement those skills and build their dream life. Ok, mushy stuff over. But this was fun!
