I still can't believe this: I'm almost to the end of year four of writing a monthly Google Doc.
(And even more unbelievable: Almost 10,000 of you read it every single month.)

Oh, just a funny story about the time I tried to make some email authentication updates at the end of a long day and accidentally ended up in the spam folder for 24 hours 🤦♂️

As Alex explains so well here: We're making a push to tell stories about newsletters from all over.
This month, we've published stories from writers in India, the UK, & Chile
And this is the first we've published in two languages (English and Spanish).
Lots more to come!

First, come for the Q&A with @ivanwese about starting a newsletter under a parent company. There's lots of good stuff in there about turning your analysis into an indispensable product.

If you're interested in newsletters, you may enjoy a piece I've written with my colleague from reader research, Mike Hoole, on our reader survey. It's been incredibly successful.....inboxcollective.com/financia… (Thanks to @danoshinsky for featuring the piece)

So for @semaforben’s first day — and with @semafor launching all sorts of newsletters — I’ll tell the story about my first day working for Ben at BuzzFeed as their Newsletter Editor.

It took 25 months to answer Ben’s question and get to a million subscribers. (Turns out that when you have no strategy or budget, you rely on a lot of trial and error.) The second million came less than a year after that.

But it’s wild to wake up today and see, right there on the @Semafor homepage, a massive email sign-up box for their 8 newsletters. How things have changed in a decade. I know Ben’s still asking the same questions about growth — here’s betting it won’t take them nearly as long.
