Hey honeys and hustlers,
This is the next-to-last newsletter of the year. It’s been a long ride. Along the way, a few articles have stuck out as your favorite. In no particular order, I looked for articles that received responses, shares, comments, high open rates, garnered new subscribers, and had high total views. Not an exact science, but it’s the one we have. The beehiiv posts report dashboard also helped me sort through the data and showed me the top 5 highest-performing articles across all those metrics, which is pretty cool. Here’s something to read during your winter break hibernation, organized by category.
Hang tight - here’s a message from the folks that help keep the lights on.
This newsletter you couldn’t wait to open? It runs on beehiiv — the absolute best platform for email newsletters.
Our editor makes your content look like Picasso in the inbox. Your website? Beautiful and ready to capture subscribers on day one.
And when it’s time to monetize, you don’t need to duct-tape a dozen tools together. Paid subscriptions, referrals, and a (super easy-to-use) global ad network — it’s all built in.
beehiiv isn’t just the best choice. It’s the only choice that makes sense.
