Newsletter strategy brief
For companies that keep saying “we should do a newsletter” and haven’t decided what it is. We decide.
- Three stakeholder interviews: your founder, a salesperson, your most annoyed customer
- Audience map naming the two readers who matter and the ten who don’t
- Editorial angle, format, cadence and send day, each with the reasoning written down
- A platform verdict: stay put or move, said plainly
- 90-minute readout call, then a document you can forward
→ you keep the written brief, interview notes and recordings
