Hey, Is it weird ...

Hey, Rockin Robin. You're doing great. Click here to read this on the web.

Hi there!

Is it weird to charge for your newsletter?

I just got this "guns blazing" email from ConvertKit promoting their new service for paid newsletters.

"Hey there,

Great news!

The first ever Paid Newsletter Challenge officially live!"

Don't get me wrong, I can totally see the benefit of it, but it just doesn't do it for me.

I’d rather be having conversations for free with you, like I am right now.

So, are you team paid newsletters or team free newsletters?

Hit reply and let me know

The thing is Convert is not alone, and for the most part they are late to the party.

The key to this is building your free newsletter subscriber list first. And even then it can be dicey.

I have no plans to move to a paid model at the moment, because I think there are a lot of downsides.

Still, if you have a big list and you think you can sell it, take the plunge.
