Quick answers

Questions readers ask.

How often should I send a newsletter?

Weekly or fortnightly works for most small businesses. Monthly is fine for B2B. Consistency matters more than frequency.

How long should a newsletter be?

Short enough to scan in under a minute: one main story, 2–3 short sections and one clear CTA. Link out for depth.

What's a good open rate?

It varies by industry and list quality, and privacy features inflate opens. Focus on click-through rate, replies and revenue per email.
