How the 1/5/10 Strategy Can Improve Your Daily Newsletter


Some of my favorite daily newsletters aren’t just five-minute reads. They could also be read in one minute or ten minutes.

How could one newsletter be read at three very different speeds? There’s no podcast-like hack where you can make a reader scroll at 1.5x speed. The trick is all in how you structure the newsletter using what I call the “1/5/10 strategy.”

Here’s how to figure out if the strategy is right for you — and how to take advantage of it to build a better newsletter.
Let’s talk 1/5/10
A really good email design can make all the difference when you’re driving readers to buy your product or attend your event. But not every platform lets you create better and faster emails with easy-to-customize, mobile-friendly templates that drive clicks and conversions.

That’s where Beefree comes in. Whether you’re designing a single email to sell a product or an entire onboarding series, Beefree helps you create emails that look great and perform even better — in a fraction of the time. The average CTR after designing with Beefree? 24.96% — way above the industry average.

Plus, Beefree makes creating landing pages just as easy and fast, whether you’re collecting email addresses or selling tickets to an event.

The best part: You can get started with Beefree for free today and upgrade as you grow. Create an account now and start designing better, faster emails and landing pages.

I think this might be one of my favorite stories we’ve published all year: “How I Named My Newsletter.” (Inbox Collective)

Newsletters selling ads should give this piece a read about how to get advertisers to return for another year. (Life of Scoop)

I always love a good year-in-recap post. If you’re an indie operator, think about writing something like this before the year is over! (Newcomer)
