I'm creating a course on how to set up & scale an email newsletter (now I've sold 2) - and I want to review ALL the newsletter tools out there.
To have 'skin in the game', I'm going to launch a new newsletter every day for the next 20 days!
I'll share my progress in this thread

The first newsletter is live: http://AppleNewsletter.com
This will recap the best Apple news every week.
I built this using a simple HTML/CSS landing page, an image from @unsplash and @Mailchimp for email.
Hey @marshal - does Peel want to sponsor Friday's newsletter?

Newsletter #2 is live: http://LastMinuteSponsorships.com
This will allow podcast & newsletter creators to sell their unfulfilled sponsorship inventory at a discount.
I built this using @ConvertKit. All was great until I couldn't find a way to remove the "Powered by ConvertKit" link :(

Newsletter #3 is live: http://FinTechCompanies.io
This newsletter will recap the best #FinTech news every week.
I built this using HTML/CSS and used @ConvertKit for email delivery. Lot's of hiccups as I was coding, but overall I'm happy with the flexibility this setup provides.

Newsletter #4 is live: http://VettedWriters.com
Every week I'll work with a few content writers looking for work (with paid projects) - and highlight the best ones I find on this newsletter.
This was built using @ajlkn's http://Carrd.co which is so polished

This newsletter will interview people that are revolutionizing the cannabis industry as we know it today.
I had planned to use @revue for this newsletter but ran out of time. I will try again tomorrow!

Newsletter #7 is live (well, sort of): http://www.AviationWeekly.co
While @revue's editing software looks promising, they have the worst landing pages and support on setting up a custom domain I’ve experienced so far (site doesn’t work without www. - and I wasn’t able to upload logo)

Newsletter #7 (part 2): http://AviationWeekly.co
To improve the landing page, I decided to use Carrd that forwards new subscribers to Revue as I still want to test their email editor out.
But unfortunately, opt-in emails go to "Promotions" and I can't confirm a subscription

Newsletter #8: http://20Newsletters.com
Many have asked, so here it is - A monthly newsletter that will track the performance of the newsletters I'm launching in this thread.
I used @SubstackInc and holy mackerel is it a pleasure to use! (downside is no custom domains as of yet)
