3 Reasons to Sign up for My Newsletter

By Dan

September 28, 2011

 

Hey there. See that little box with the orange mountain photo over on the right that says Subscribe to My Newsletter:…? Do me a favor… actually do yourself a favor and fill it out.

Why? I’ll give you 3 reasons why you should:

1. You’ll Never Miss A Post

Let’s face it, your life doesn’t revolve around my blog. My life revolves around my blog, but you’re not me. You’re busy, and as much as you enjoy learning about photography, you have lots of important things that you do in your life that don’t involve reading my blog every single day. Hopefully one of those things is going outside to take photos on a regular basis.

My newsletter is a summary of my recent blog posts that gets delivered right to your inbox. This way, you can look over the topics on your own time and catch up on anything that you might have missed, or that you find relevant and/or interesting as it relates to you own photography.

2. You’ll Get Exclusive Content

Ok, my newsletter is more than just a summary of posts. It’s actually a fun, fact filled electronic publication that’s packed with additional tips, creative ideas, professional insight, interesting links and other content that only YOU get to see. It’s like getting the special deluxe extended version of this blog for free.

3. You’ll Save Money

If you read my newsletter, you’ll hear about my upcoming eBooks and other products before anyone else. Not only that, when I actually bring these ideas to fruition and release them to the public, guess who will be standing at the front of the line holding a number?

And if I decide to run any special offers and discounts, guess who will be notified of them first? That’s right, you. In fact, there will be some special offers that only you’ll hear about. How’s that for special treatment?

Even if you already subscribe to this blog with email notifications, or if you follow me on Facebook and Twitter, you should still sign up for my newsletter, because you’re not getting any of that additional stuff. You want that stuff, right?

You also want to know what you’re getting into. Click here to read an example newsletter.

Know that your name and email address will be held in strict confidence and only used by me to send you correspondence that relates to me helping you become a better photographer. And, if for whatever reason, you find that you just can’t keep up with all that extra photo goodness, you can always unsubscribe.

So that’s the why. Are you ready? Then scroll back to the top of the page and sign up!!

  • Hi Dan. Actually, it just says “Subscribe”. At the top of the page. In a gray font instead of the black text used in the rest of the navigation.

    I missed the navigation text above the banner image. I was expecting a box near the “Follow Me” section that said “Subscribe to Newsletter” like you described above. You could get more subscribers if you made it dead simple for your readers. 🙂

  • Update. Right after I posted my comment above, the subscription box appeared right where expected! Too funny.

  • Sometimes it takes a bit for the signup web form to load. Thanks for the note, though. To make it easier, I just added a form at the bottom of the page too,

  • {"email":"Email address invalid","url":"Website address invalid","required":"Required field missing"}

    Never miss a post!

     Subscribe and get notified whenever I write something new!
