We want you (no, seriously).
Our monthly dose of advice from friends to our community is something we want you involved in (so read on).
Our last Volume brought a brilliant lesson from Fabiana Stringa on writing emails nobody else could have written. And as we look toward Q4 and into early 2027, we’ve got some brilliant Volumes lined up.
This edition, though, is going to be a little….different.
If contribution or collaboration is on your radar, keep reading, because we want the voices in our community heard as we plan the rest of the year and beyond!
So, today, we have one question for you, {{name|friend}}:
Do you want to be featured in our emails?
Email Advice From A Friend & You?
To kick things off, we’re taking applications for guests in these emails!
If you’ve just joined us, or been around for a while, you’ll know that the guests we feature in these once-monthly special volumes are, well, exactly that.
Special.
These folks have offered fresh perspectives from across the digital space in dozens of Volumes, and as we plan for Q4 2026 and early 2027, we’d like to know whether you’d like to share your knowledge with our community.
The criteria are pretty simple:
You’re given a pretty clean slate to speak about something that helps email senders in some way, built around your area of expertise, be that:
Deliverability
Content creation
Building a solid offer
Using AI tools in email
Email design or automation
Selling ads or sponsorships in email
The list is, honestly, pretty endless (As long as it helps email senders, of course).
And it doesn’t have to be about email, of course, but something at the intersection of email is the goal. Let’s hear what you’ve got to share!
So, what’s in it for you?
Well, having the chance to work with us to share your expertise, have your voice heard, and contribute positively to our community.
We make a huge noise about these emails all over, and there are thousands of readers wanting to learn from people just like you.
And there’s a reason this is a free opportunity. No hard selling. No shameless plugging.
Value is what our community demands.
So, if you have an idea for a topic that would add value to these emails and want to get your knowledge shared with our readers, then hit the button below and let’s see if we can make it happen.
Want to Cross-Promote your Newsletter?
Speaking of adding value…
Something you’ll likely have seen in our emails, or wherever else you’re engaging with us, is that we’re BIG on promoting newsletters from amazing email senders.
We all know that people (mostly) trust the recommendations of others, so in the spirit of collaboration, we’re looking to grow our network of newsletters that would like to cross-promote!
Our community comprises some amazing email senders and newsletter operators, and we’re big on prioritising them, so here’s what we need you to do:
If your newsletter isn’t listed yet on CrossLetter, what are you waiting for? We care so much about cross-promotion that we built something just to make that easier.
If you’re on Sparkloop, we’d love to add you to our list of recommendations here.
If you’re on Beehiiv, we’ve got a spot open for our top 4 next month. If you want to be top 4 buddies, hit this link.
If you’re keen to run some LinkedIn cross-promotion and get featured in our Newsletter of the Week, hit this link.
We’re also big on featuring newsletters in our weekly emails, and wherever we can spread the word about your work, but we’re big on quality over quantity.
If you’re a regular sender, add immense value and think cross-promotion with us makes sense, then let’s make it happen!
Want your tool, brand or product featured?
These emails are supported by the brands that sponsor us.
But we’re pretty serious about who we work with.
Regardless of how long you’ve been here, you’ll notice three things that are pretty darn important to us:
These emails aren’t hard sells or loaded with tons of ads
We are brand agnostic and prioritise our readers in every email
We want everything we share to add value in some way to the email space
We have extremely strict criteria for working with us on the paid front, and value is always the name of the game.
But this also means we keep our metrics verified, our list of subscribers clean, and our audience trust remains.
With all of this in mind, if you’re a brand, have software or a tool, or feel your product helps email senders in some way, we’re open to working with you.
We’re in the process of vetting new brands and lining up stuff that matters to our audience, so if you’d like a space to share that, here’s what to do:
Submit an application to be featured in an upcoming Volume of Email Tools TLDR by getting in touch here.
Find out how to grab a sponsor or brand promotion slot in an upcoming email by clicking here.
Again, we’re only considering brands that help email senders, marketers, creators and businesses in some way.
That’s our promise to everyone here.
What to look out for
We’re currently lining up an exciting run of guests for Q4 2026 and into early 2027! Keen for a sneak peek at what’s to come in Email Advice From A Friend?
We’re talking strategy experts, copywriters, podcasters, and email senders who've built real results, all lined up to share what's actually working right now.
We’ll be announcing exactly who’s joining us as each Volume gets closer, so keep an eye on your inbox.
And, who knows, you could have your name up in lights here, too, so make sure you apply to share your knowledge in an upcoming Volume too!
We hope you stick around, because this is just the start of a heap of amazing email knowledge we’re sharing.
And, who knows, maybe you’ll be making some new friends in the process, too 💌
One last thing…
If these Volumes have added value to your inbox, the best way to say thanks costs nothing but a click.
