What the community has to say

“Amanda's reader data analysis went far deeper than I expected. It offered specific suggestions for how to talk with subscribers about moving to paid subscriptions in ways that felt authentic to my goals and intentions. What I found most valuable was how her insights made me excited about my newsletter, my writing, and the body of work I’ve produced. I was looking forward to diving back into my archives with new enthusiasm. This experience was truly amazing, and I feel inspired both about my work and its readers. I give the experience five stars and more!” —

“Working with Amanda has profoundly changed my perspective on the editing process, which I previously considered secondary. Amanda possesses a remarkable talent for identifying the technical challenges that must be addressed to align a writer’s voice with their choice of words. Her empathy is one of her greatest strengths, enabling her to connect the dots and illuminate the most brilliant aspects of any work.” — Swarnali Mukherjee, author of Berkana

“This is really, really good, Amanda. Excellent start to finish.” - Jeannine Ouellette

“This is an amazingly thoughtful and comprehensive resource for planning or revising our welcome emails. Way to exceed expectations!” - Tara Penry

“These tips are gold. The templates are so generous and helpful.” - Monika Kosmakova

“This is inspiring. I tend to jump in and out of the different parts of my newsletter you cover in no particular order, so I like this structure. It seems intentional, and since I'm working on really clarifying my "wtf is this newsletter about anyway" this will be a big help.” - Page Huyette

“This is so incredibly helpful! As I set up my publication, this will serve as a useful guide. I'm on the "About page" now. Also, your Reader Connection Blueprint was incredible, and I'm so happy I was able to knock it out this morning.” - Kourtney Torres
