Quick update: I did some serious list maintenance over the past week and unsubscribed a bunch of unengaged subscribers from the newsletter.
I’m talking like 80% of the list. It hurt. I took great pride in having a somewhat large following, but to be completely honest, it wasn’t real and it hurt us more than I thought it was helping.
Now, if you’re reading this thinking that I’m going to boot you off the list for whatever reason – this isn’t the case. The people who were unsubscribed include:
People who entered a giveaway but never bothered to open any of the emails they received afterward.
Subscribers with invalid or bouncing email addresses
Anyone who hadn’t opened an email over a 30-day span
Accounts that were flagged as spam or inactive.
If you're reading this, it means you're an engaged reader, and I truly appreciate your support.
Going forward, the 30-day rule will be enabled from here on out. Don’t worry; we’ll send you a couple of emails to let you know you’re at risk of being removed and will give you the option to stay on or to unsubscribe.
Closing this out, I want to thank all of you who are sticking this out with me and the folks who opted back in or completed feedback surveys; THANK YOU.
