Awesome. Congrats on the launch and thank you! I’ve been doing some research on how to properly manage and run our newsletter for Money Minx so this is perfect timing and will help is a lot.
Paul Metcalfe
@husseinyahfoufi 👍 want it to be as helpful as possible. Thanks for your support and good luck with your newsletter.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 Thanks for checking out Letterstack. Yep, it’s one of those resource sites again. But I don’t think there’s been one focused only on newsletters. So don’t run away yet. I’ve been obsessed with the newsletter as a business model since the Hustle went newsletter only. And following the success of Morning Brew, theSkimm and smaller publications. Over the last year or so, I've been trying to build my own newsletters that generate income. On that journey, I’ve built up a ton of bookmarks for helpful resources to build, grow and monetize newsletters. Lots of articles and podcasts, some videos and communities to join and directories to list your newsletter. I built a quick Webflow project so that I could share it with other newsletter creators / writers. Hope you like it and keen to hear feedback or questions. (oh, and it’s my first time launching a project here so go easy 😀 )

@paul_metcalfe Hey Paul, love this! Seems like newsletters are very on trend today. My little side newsletter project is #5 on Product Hunt, check it out as I would love to know your thoughts. It's https://www.producthunt.com/post...

@robjbye I saw it and upvoted earlier. Pigeon News on my list to add to the site

Congrats on the launch @paul_metcalfe and also on securing #1 Product of the day! 🚀🥳 Keep an eye on the "Useful Resource" section of Creativerly (https://creativerly.xyz) in tomorrows issue 👀 Could be that you will find Letterstack featured there. 🥰 Thank you for creating Letterstack!
Paul Metcalfe
@itspippolinski thanks and I’ll keep an eye out. Been a subscriber for some time.
Philipp
@paul_metcalfe I know that, and I really appreciate it. Your tips and techniques you told me on Indie Hackers brought in my very first subscribers back in 2019 🥰 And know I am on route to reach 500 subscribers by the end of the year!
Paul Metcalfe
@itspippolinski great to hear you’re growing - you put a lot of effort into your newsletter 👍
Philipp
@paul_metcalfe I do indeed, so it is awesome to see how many people are actually enjoying and reading it! 🥰
Jonas
This is a great resource and well designed, thanks for building! Question where can I find the 'sell a newsletter' category :)
Paul Metcalfe
@jonastwt think I’m going to have to add one 😄

I've been building projects with Paul for a few months now. We don't work together on anything, we just help each other out and give fast feedback. If anyone out there can build a resource site, it is Paul. As a newsletter builder myself, I'm super excited to watch where this goes. Edit: I forgot to say it. Whenever I have a question like "is there a service for this" or "what's the best way to do this?" I go to Paul. Paul is like a personalized Google for builders
Paul Metcalfe
@sneddymobbin man... you’re too kind. Love working with you and following your journey 👍
Kristian Freeman
This is a super valuable resource for anyone building newsletters — @paul_metcalfe has compiled a great set of tools, communities, and resources for different stages of newsletter building. Congrats on launching Paul!
Paul Metcalfe
@imkmf 👍 thanks. Great to be part of your community
Louis Nicholls
Awesome stuff, @paul_metcalfe! I love how well curated the resources are, and am excited to see where this goes. Will definitely share with a lot of our SparkLoop users!
Paul Metcalfe
@louisnicholls_ thanks. Planning to add tools next - ESPs and referral software
Stuart Sim
Very cool site Paul! Love the resources and will definitely be applying some lessons to my own newsletter. Good Luck!!
Paul Metcalfe
@stusim Cheers Stuart 👍
Marc Littlemore
I've just spent a few hours reading the articles linked on this @paul_metcalfe. Thanks so much for collating an invaluable resource. It's helping me on my journey to building a digital product.
Paul Metcalfe
@marclittlemore that's great to hear - good luck with your product
Henry Garrett
Well done, Paul. This is a gold mine of content that anybody starting/maintaining a newsletter would be lucky to stumble upon.
Paul Metcalfe
@henry_garrett Kind words, thank you
Vimal
Hello Paul, would love to connect. I actually realized there is no way to easily track and reward referrals like The Hustle, Skimm and Morning Brew do. I have built an app that will help with this (https://www.rfrnow.com) that I'm hoping to get test users for. Hope to launch here in PH in a few weeks!
Paul Metcalfe
@vimalvachhani Hey. Saw you submit to the site and will take a look. I don’t have a tools section (yet) but might be something to include in my newsletter this week. There are a few other tools to track and reward referrals - you’ve got competitors.
Nic
Awesome stuff! Congrats Paul, as a newsletter creator myself, having a resource like this on hand is such a pleasure.
Paul Metcalfe
@nicwondering Cheers Nic. Thanks for your feedback

Much needed. Been hustling for a while. Hopefully this will help KnowledgeDay grow. https://ohyash.github.io/Knowled...
Paul Metcalfe
@ohy4sh How do you choose your topics - so diverse and so much to learn 😀
Yash Yadav
@paul_metcalfe Thanks Paul! Appreciate the feedback. And the topics I pick are all entirely self chosen from whatever I find interesting while surfing the internet. It's all mood. :D
@paul_metcalfe Awesome resource. I am going to read it like a book.
Paul Metcalfe
@falak_sher thanks for the support and product hunt resources you sent.
