How to stay accountable when starting a newsletter?

Starting a newsletter is exciting getting to share your thoughts through email and sending them to your subscribers.

But how do you stay accountable that you actually continue the newsletter and don’t forget about it?

It’s simple, Tell your family and friends first when you are starting your newsletter. When I first started The Newsie, I told my family & friends about the newsletter, and they signed up to support my project.

Now on days when sometimes don’t feel like writing the newsletter. I think about the people who signed up and are supporting the newsletter, I don’t want to fail them since they are putting their trust and expecting me to show up on Saturday at 10:01 a.m. EST.

So if you are just starting a newsletter, tell everyone you know about it. Even if it’s only 5 subscribers, that will make you want to show up and send out the newsletter.
