An Email List Without Emails
Warning: Undefined property: linknotes::$are_links in /var/www/vhosts/basil/kbsite/blog/wp-content/plugins/linknotes.php on line 73
Through the grapevine, it’s gotten back to me that certain people who could benefit from the information that gets distributed in my email list are not subscribed because they “don’t do email lists.” I don’t usually do them, either, so I definitely understand your apprehension. There are options, though. You have a choice.
If you’re a spamophobe — and I certainly am, so I don’t blame you — you can opt not to receive any emails at all when you subscribe. What’s the point of that? If you are subscribed, you can read the emails archived on the website.
Another option is to receive only special notices in the mail. I use the special notice feature for things like address changes — which are plentiful in the Navy — and when I’ll be on leave and visiting a certain locality.
So, if you think you have to receive every email I send out — all one of them every week or so — you don’t. Don’t miss out on important information — like my new address — just because you don’t like spam.
See? You really can have your cake and eat it, too.
