Hey all, wanted to share that I'm now using Revue for my monthly newsletters and moving away from Mailchimp.
It took me awhile, more so because I feel terrified losing subscribers, like many, I lost a bunch from GDPR reminders back then. But...
Takes a deep breath...
I'm just going to go for it, as it's the right thing to do, it just so happens I was looking into other newsletter platforms like Substack, and was pretty close to choosing that one until a colleague mentioned Revue and I tried it out and really like it.
In July I released my last Mailchimp and at the same time published a slightly modified version on Revue. I sent it around to my other half and close friends & fam to see what they thought.
The big switch came in August, and a few dropped, but we got new subscribers as I shared about it on Linkedin, Twitter and Facebook.
I did it!
The world didn't collapse on me. 😆 Thank you to all that stuck with me on the switch, and welcome to all the awesome new subscribers, all support is much appreciated. 🥰
