A New & Better Direction For The Pursuit Newsletter
This section in today’s newsletter is where we will explain how we are going to continually focus on making the newsletter better and more valuable for you as a subscriber over the long term.

Congratulations! It’s great that you have chosen to stay with us!
The bottom line is…
We know that you are busy
Your time is valuable
We want every piece of content that we create for you to provide you with the maximum amount of value in the shortest time possible, so that you can achieve your newsletter business goals quickly, efficiently and effectively.
After reviewing previously published issues of The Pursuit Newsletter, and after hearing your feedback, we believe that we have now found an even better way to package the value we want to provide you as a member of our newsletter list.
So…
When you read the story covered below about how a newsletter (that’s run by the LLC that owns and controls The Pursuit Newsletter) went from 0 to 1700+ subscribers in less than 4 days…
You will see how we execute on this promise for you (and will execute on it in the future).
We also want you to know that when it comes to reading this newsletter and getting value from it…
It does not matter what niche you are in…
Or
Where you are currently starting from…
As long as your newsletter business website…
Allows subscribers the ability to sign up for your newsletter…
Has some content that people can read before signing up…
Has an owner (you) behind it who is committed to creating success…
You are now in the driver seat (and in the best possible position) to get the most amount of value from our newsletter going forward.
That also means that…
If you are currently in the position where you DO NOT HAVE your newsletter business up and running yet (with a working website)…

Newsletter Launch Success: From 0 to Over 1700+ Subscribers In Less Than 4 Days
A brand new newsletter was launched on Monday March 11 at 8am EST.
And then…
Before Friday morning at 8am EST, the newsletter itself had accumulated over 1700+ subscribers (less than 4 days).
How do we at The Pursuit Newsletter know about this story?
FACT: The newsletter that achieved this result is owned and controlled by the same LLC that owns and controls The Pursuit Newsletter, so we have access to the growth tactics they implemented to create a result like this!
Here is the screenshot of the image you need to see for the story as “proof” that this actually did happen this week. This screenshot was taken this morning (on Friday March 15th).
Keep reading to understand how this result was created.
So you now may be wondering…
How was this new newsletter able to achieve growth like this in such a short amount of time?
Here are the big things you need to know to understand about how this kind of growth was manufactured in such a short amount of time.
Fact #1: The newsletter was launched into a Facebook page with over 36,000+ fans/followers via multiple different posts Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday (launch posts).
Fact #2: The admin of the facebook page spent well over 6+ months building trust and rapport with the audience before he promoted anything to the FB page
Fact #3: The admin of the facebook page has specific ways to engage with people in the comments to drive them to the sign up page without annoying people or making them feel uncomfortable (We will share these tips below)
Fact #4: The newsletter was free to sign up for, and is something that the audience was already engaging with on a massive scale in the facebook page to begin with. Signing up for this newsletter was a “natural yes” given the experience the admin created on his facebook page with the audience.
Fact #5: The admin “teased the page’s followers” with at least 3 posts explaining that something big was coming (On Wednesday, Friday and Sunday) before the launch day, and that they should be ready for it at 8am EST on Monday.
Here are some of the tactics the admin used to engage with the fans of the page (via posts) to drive them to the sign up page for the newsletter.
Tactic #1: The first post he made on Monday at 8am EST said, “To read the big announcement, read the first comment below” - This allowed him to focus the attention on one specific thing to drive the click over to the sign up page
Tactic #2: The second kind of post he made shortly after the first post on Monday was a “If you can see this say YES” post. When someone commented with “Yes” he would reply with a small custom message that was relevant that drove the person to the sign up page.
Tactic #3: The admin made a specific graphic with a tagline and a link to the homepage of the newsletter so people could sign up. After posting it on his facebook page, he also posted it to his “story” so it could get the maximum amount of exposure possible.
Here are some of the final things that he did to drive a ton of targeted traffic into the sign up page
Final Thing #1: The admin is also an admin of a couple massive groups that are between 50,000-100,000+ members in the group. Given the way facebook works, he was able to do @everyone posts and drive targeted traffic from those groups to any link he wanted
Final Thing #2: Because the niche he is building this newsletter inside of is a very tight knit niche, there are also a good chunk of people who have already been referred to the newsletter by friends because of the nature of the newsletter and the value the newsletter provides people.
Final Thing #3: After someone signs up, they are sent an email to make sure they do all of the correct things to ensure the future deliverability of the emails that are sent to the list
Final Thing #4: In the email that is sent after sign up, the admin also asks two questions. One of the questions is related directly to the newsletter, and the other question asks how they found out about the newsletter. These two pieces of data alone give him everything he needs to effectively steer the ship in the first 15-30+ days.
In Closing
The key thing to understand about the growth of this newsletter this week is that it was centered mainly around using a facebook page with a massive following, and using @everyone posts inside of facebook groups to drive the traffic to the right place to get people to sign up.
Another important thing to note is that the content for the newsletter made sense for a daily newsletter Monday through Friday.
Subscribers will get one email Monday - Friday in the morning, and it will be something they look forward to getting every single day day given the experience that the admin created on the facebook page to begin with.
Finally…
Building trust and rapport with people on a facebook page works. Most of the people who signed up right from the start already established a massive amount of trust and rapport with the admin of the page before they were ever pitched anything.
