Unbundling Digital Marketing Agencies - Focused on Newslettter Growth - There has been a proliferation of Newsletters in the past few years. Many journalists have left top newspapers to start their own newsletters and a few of them have done incredibly well for themselves with this model. However, a great writer and journalist might not be great at promoting and distributing their newsletter. Why not unbundle newsletter growth from Digital Marketing agencies and have an agency completely focused on growing newsletters for writers. Everybody hates this idea, I was very sad.

Bundling Subscriptions - Bundling all of your OTT, Music and Newspaper subscriptions in one place so that you have full visibility of all your subscriptions and so that they're easier to handle. Every.to has bundled some fantastic creators in a newsletter subscription, allowing them to grow their audience by collaborating with others.
