… have 601 subscribers to this blog.

56 of you signed up since yesterday (welcome), when I sent out an announcement to my newsletter list.

At the same time, seven other people decided to unsubscribe from my newsletter entirely.

So, is “promotion” annoying?

It’s (potentially) annoying if you don’t want whatever is being promoted. It’s “thanks for letting me know” if you do.

If “unsubscribes” is the number you care most about, you’re going to miss out on making a lot of new friends – and earning a lot more money.
