Tools/Beehiiv
Write the issue once. The send is the site.
A list in one tool and a site in another means Friday's issue lives twice. You write it, paste it, then hope the public page matches the email.
Beehiiv is the other shape. You write the issue once. When you send, the letter and the web edition update together. People can find last week's issue later. That is a publication, not a blast that dies in the inbox. Launch is free to 2,500 subscribers. Unlimited sends. No card. The web edition and a custom domain sit on Launch. Recommendations, paid letters, and ads wait for Scale. Do not sell those on day one. Hit send when the issue is ready.
- The issue you send is the web edition they read
- List and site in one account, not two vendors
- One send for the letter and the page
- Subject, preview, body, then send
- Recommendations when you move to Scale
