Deep Dive
How to build your newsie in public
Building my newsletter in public has been one of the best decisions I have made when I started my newsletter.
So how do you build in public?
It’s actually pretty simple.
You just need to share behind the scenes of what your building. In this case a newsletter and X will be the platform of choice.
On X, I share the following…
Mistakes to building the newsletter.
Screenshots of my subscriber growth
The ups when the newsletter is growing.
Screenshots of how I did a certain thing, in my newsletter.
Sometimes screenshots of the money I make from Beehiiv
The downs of when I need to clean my email list and say bye to a few inactive subs
Example of tweet
These are just a few ways I am building in public. This will help people just starting out who might be where you were just a few weeks ago.
You can’t imagine how much DMs I get from people who want to know how I did something and I am always happy to show them.
Build in public.
What I mean: share what you’re doing with your community, your audience, your friends and your family. It’ll challenge your ego but it’ll compound your success if you let people in on what you’re building.

Newsletter Metrics
I want to be transparent and also I think it will be cool to see the weekly growth of a newsletter
Open Rate: 66.7%
Click-Rate: 16.1%
Subscribers: 353
FOURTH STOP
The Tweet
Remember
If you walk up to someone at a bar 20 times asking for their number each time, they won't give it to you
But if you buy them a drink and then compliment them and then tell them a relevant joke, they will
Aka - send value emails, not asking emails
