I think tech leads and project managers might be more willing and capable of writing good articles. They’re used to writing a lot anyway
Last year, at InvoiceBerry, we randomly started receiving dozens of signups from Sri Lanka. The next day again, and again. Initially I thought it was spam, but they seemed to use the tool. So I reached out to a few people and one of the new signups shared a video with me. Apparently a Sri Lankan influencer mentioned InvoiceBerry in his TikTok video.
So yeah, maybe reach out to some of those sig ups that seem active and ask.
This is great advice! I've seen a few situations now too with an influencer sending a mass amount of engagement from a specific niche or region.
Also, you probably already have but check the email addresses - if they all follow a similar pattern it's probably spam. And timings too - do they come through in batches or are they very evenly spaces (i.e. every 5 minutes), can be a spam indicator of automation (but you probably already are on top of that).
I found it was a youtuber who mentioned me! Good tip
I definitely accepted your invite :)
Where do you see the invites? Does everyone get them in their accounts? (I might have someone who's a great fit)
@uwe yeah, you'll get them with streak milestones. :-)
Do they show you an open rate of your newsletters?
They do yep
Have you checked the standard stuff like DKIM, DMARC, SPF records are all correct?
I've also seen that recently Google started showing a big warning box whenever it finds a hidden image (open-rate counting pixel) and it's easy to accidentally mark those emails as spam.
Yes, DKIM, DMARC, SPF all set up correctly. Im using BeeHiiv, not sure if they have the counting pixel? Do you know?
Do they show you an open rate of your newsletters?
They do yep
I need to follow this discussion. I want the same. Need wool for very cold winters though
