Email newsletter creators are gathering virtually this week (April 12 – 16) for Newsletter Fest. What was originally conceived as a one-day event has grown into a weeklong series of workshops, bringing newsletter and email experts together to present and answer questions. Each session has a reserved Q&A session to allow real-time responses.
In total, the conference will host 23 hours of advice for publishers, individual creators, and marketers looking to optimize and improve their newsletter performance. The free event is hosted by Curated.co, a newsletter creation and sending tool.
