Yeah, you just touched on so many things that I want to circle back to and double click on. But you mentioned the user experience and how you're welcoming people. And that reminded me of the fact that for the newsletters that I subscribe to, when I first subscribed to them, I did get like a welcome email. Is that something that you recommend creators have? Yeah.

Okay, interesting. And so that is something that would potentially help my email not be flagged as spam. Yes.

Okay, great. So say I am sending out my first email and I've asked some friends to subscribe. So I have some people that are on the list already, but I haven't sent anything yet. Is there anything I should be doing for the very first newsletter that I send out that will increase the probability that my email doesn't just automatically go to a spam or junk folder? Yeah.

It's great to hear because I have sort of been sitting here thinking that I don't have a big list to start. Like I'm not going to get a lot of people to sign up initially. I just know that to be true. And I have been sort of taking myself thinking that that's a bad thing, but it's nice to hear that there are some kind of good things about it too. So that's really good to know.

Some other things that you mentioned around user experience is like, Length and cadence, how often are your subscribers going to be hearing from you? These are the things that I'm thinking through right now, like all of these little decisions around how long the newsletter is going to be and what is the cadence and should I have headings and different sections and things like that.

Okay, great. That's really helpful. I know another thing that people look at really closely and want to make sure they optimize for is a good open rate. Do you have any tips on getting a good open rate?

That's really helpful. And I alluded to this before, but I am not a celebrity. I am not Tim Ferriss. I I don't have a big audience of people that I know are going to subscribe to the newsletter. And so I effectively, in order to grow it, need to kind of get strangers to discover it. Like I don't have an audience that I'm tapping into. And so how do I do that?
