Turn typefully into a newsletter tool

Tbh I don't care about more than Twitter and Linkedin and will likely never do. But we pay a lot of money for a newsletter tool, where I esentially copy the content from Linkedin / Twitter into. Could be a nice area for you to go into, even though much effort

    I don't see it as distraction but more as an integration

    A minimalist newsletter would make typefully the only platform I'd need for my content creation.

    Let's do this 👍

    typefully is a social content planner, and the best there is.

    it should definetly not take a U-turn into a product thst has nothing to do with what it is today.

    Better to do one thing well, than two things half-assed.

    consider all of what this would require: email design, read receipt reports, templates, integration with custom domains, automatic responses, and so much more to even start to compete with existing products.

    and tweets are something one does all the time. if email was sent at the same frequency it would fall into spam. these are completely incompatible activities and would end up hurting both use cases.

    "jack of all trades and master of none" is not a sustainable business model.

    interesting - as a newsletter writer, this would be cool.

    But there are existing services like beehiiv and convertkit. do you want typefully to integrate them or replace them?

      Aadit Sheth: I'm using substack, and I'm about to move to beehiiv, I don't see how typefully could replace them

      I see typefully could be better as a personal blog, making easy for writers to have all long form content into one place

      Something like the profile feature they already have, but with a functionality more similar to a personal page or blog

      So typefully users could link and embed all their content into one place, and categorize. I would lead followers to that profile in order to help them find my most valuable content.

      Finally, users could have the option to receive an email every time there is new content on my typefully profile. This feature gives to content creators the peace of mind that his content is getting to their audience

      A lot of mistakes here, just brainstorming

    Yes please, having a newsletter box to subscribe in the Typefully public profile, would be very cool.
