Love your newsletter Blane and so appreciate you sharing tips in the freebie version without making people pay to subscribe for the info. Kudos to you on that. Drives me mad with the newsletters that say "And the biggest tip you need to land a story is...." You'll have to pay to subscribe to get that info. Not every small PR agency can afford to subscribe to 30 Substacks!
Thanks so much, Jane! I know that newsletters are an important revenue stream for many journalists, so I understand the need to save the good stuff for paid subscribers. But I also know not everyone can subscribe to all of them, like you said. I'm still figuring out how/if to monetize, but I promise there will always be a free version with helpful intel!
