5 Free Newsletters That Will Change Your Life
These are the best free resources for founders
“Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.” - Henry Ford
"Learn continually - there's always "one more thing" to learn!" - Steve Jobs
"I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious." - Albert Einstein
"Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever." - Mahatma Gandhi
I’m obsessed with learning.
Learning is one of the most commonly shared traits of the world’s most successful people.
That’s why I spend 4+ hours each day learning from other experts.
One of my favorite ways to get bit-sized injections of knowledge is through newsletters.
Yes, I practice what I preach and sign up for other experts’ emails…
In today’s newsletter, I will share with you 5 newsletters that I can’t wait to read each week.
Make sure you go sign up for all of them. The insight that’s shared could change your life.
Before we dive in, 2 quick things:
#1 - This past Thursday, I was joined by an awesome group of founders for my live Content Creation Workshop.
On the call I shared my personal content creation system:
System #1 - How to create engaging content that attracts thousands of dream customers
System #2 - How to leverage proven copywriting frameworks and templates to build trust with your audience
System #3 - How to use content to grow a loyal following that brings you even more customers
The replay of the call is available here if you’d like to watch it. Passcode: E9YdD&Z9
I also share a special deal for Founder OS on the call. So if you're at all interested in rapidly building a personal brand, I highly recommend you take advantage of it.
Through Sunday night (12/11) at midnight, my program is 50% off (only 18 spots left).
Just use code: FounderOSGrow
#2 - I’m releasing a brand new course that will show you how you can build an audience of 1 million raving fans.
It will be a great stepping-stone for founders who want to grow their personal brand.
It launches next week, and I’ll email you about it when it goes live.
Now, let’s get back to the 5 newsletters that are so good you'll think you're stealing 🪂
Marketing Examples
Harry Dry does an absolutely incredible job of curating real-world marketing examples from successful companies.
Want to perfect your cold email, boost referrals, or improve SEO? He doesn’t just tell you what you can do, he shows HOW you can do it.
There’s a reason it's been voted the #1 marketing newsletter.
And every email is super digestible too. Each edition features:
3 short marketing examples
2 copywriting tips
1 viral tweet
Saturday Solopreneur
Justin Welsh is one of my favorite founders.
He spent a decade building two $50M+ ARR companies but got so burnt out that he decided to start over from scratch.
Now he’s in the process of building his own portfolio of one-person businesses to $5M, and he’s documenting his journey.
Once a week he sends out 1 actionable tip to launch, grow, and monetize your internet business.
Growth.design
Psychology plays a huge part in consumer behavior.
In fact, every time a customer interacts with your product, they’re subconsciously making decisions based on cognitive biases and other psychological principles.
Growth.design gives you super useful design and product tips in a comic book format, so you can improve your user experience.
This newsletter is hands-down one of my personal favorites.
James Clear 3-2-1
James Clear is an entrepreneur and the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller, Atomic Habits.
And just like you might assume of someone that focuses on incremental improvements, his newsletter is short and easily digestible.
Each edition features:
3 short ideas
2 quotes from others
1 question for you to ponder
It’s been said that his emails have the most wisdom per word of any newsletter on the internet.
