How I’ve posted a daily Newsletter for 100 days

For the longest time, people have said:
“Send a Newsletter. You need to own your list. You need to write a weekly Newsletter.”

It took me over 4 years to even send my first Newsletter.
I tried to follow the advice of all the industry leaders.
Until one in-depth Newsletter a week.

When I looked at their schedule, they said to work 2 hours per day.
At the end of the week, you have a 3,000-word Newsletter.
It will take 12 minutes to read that Newsletter.

When I receive those Newsletters, some make it on my “read later list” only to never look back at them again.
So I thought to myself:
This is not good for both seller and reader.
I forget to write the Newsletter, and you forget to read it.

The one thing I believe is:
Once you make building your business a habit, no one can compete with you.
Once you make your business a routine for your fans, you won’t fail.

So I sat down to think.
The major part is that newspapers win because they are part of the morning routine for their readers.

This gave me the idea to write the daily Newsletter.
Now I thought the 12-minute read time wouldn’t work either.
While you get to read this 1-minute Newsletter, I’m sitting at my desk each morning, writing the handwritten Newsletter for you to read.

This is how I made my Newsletter a habit for myself.
