Trial and Error
It’s all about trial and error when you are doing something new. We had lots of members asking whether we had a newsletter, and if not then could we put one out.
We looked around at successful, non-spam newsletters. We ruled out the ones full of ads and nonsense. We decided the model that we liked was simple. It encapsulated the week’s happenings at the site, and left it up to you the user to follow up if you were interested. We sent out two.
We got several complaints. And we got some people thanking us for this service. I guess we fell flat. I am sorry if we offended anyone, and if we caused you to be upset then please accept our apologies. It isn’t what we intended to do.
Please let us know what information you would like to see in a newsletter. We will take your input into account and revamp. We are here, and we are still listening. Please leave your thoughts in the comments of this blog.
