“The Brutal, Beautiful Truth About Writing a Newsletter Every. Single. Day.”

Sending 366 daily newsletters in a year sounds crazy - until you realize it's actually the ultimate growth hack. The secret sauce? Laser-focus on solving one specific pain point (in this case, non-profit email struggles) with bite-sized, actionable tips. Pre-writing content months in advance was the only way to survive, and embracing that not every email needs to be perfect (a .333 batting average is Hall of Fame material). Little touches like emoji branding in subject lines 📨 and a consistent sign-off ("Back at it tomorrow") turned each send into a ritual subscribers looked forward to.

The real magic happened when the newsletter became a conversation - Friday Funnies kept things light, guest experts brought fresh perspectives, and reader polls created community. But here's the kicker: replying to every single reader email (yes, every one) led to unexpected consulting gigs and deeper connections. Pro tip: choose your email platform carefully - learning Beehiiv on the fly added unnecessary stress. While daily sends aren't sustainable forever, the discipline forces next-level creativity and positions you as the go-expert in your niche. Just maybe set an end date before you start! (LINK)
