This week’s newsletter will be going out shortly. I learned a lot thought he survey and blog post mostly that while there are a few things to change people actually read my newsletter. I am grateful but did want to address something that was mention a couple of times. It is the Extra Entries within the Blog Frog Community and the Newsletter.
When I first created the newsletters (and later the community) I wanted a way to thank readers and members for taking the time to be a part of everything. The extra entries has always been my way of saying thank you. Some of you think it is too much to have to subscribe to something else. I am sorry that you feel that way. I do want everyone’s opinion on this, do you all want to do away with the extra entries or keep them?
Like I said the reason they are there is as an extra sort of thank you but if you all feel that it makes the giveaways too complicated then I can do away with them and will consider an alternative. Post your thoughts and let me know, also let me know what you think of this week’s newsletter now that I have implemented some of your suggestions.
I actually thing your giveaways are super easy to enter and the fact we know the extra entries will be in the Friday newsletter there’s no searching emails everyday to look for it. I’m excited for the recipes and toys revies/giveaways
I appreciate that you give your readers a chance for extra entries, thank you!
I think your blog is easy to read and the giveaways easy to enter now. I have a few ways that I like to follow blogs, and I do those anyway and really appreciate having them recognized as giveaway entries. I’m a loyal and frequent reader, but just don’t comment much. I hardly ever know what to say unless there is a question asked.
love the extra entries
I think the extra entries are great! Shows that you should read the newsletters and not just delete them or subscribe to get an extra entry on the giveaway.
I like the extra entries and would like to see them continue.
I am so thrilled that you all like the extra entries. I do try to get them in as often as I can and want people to be rewarded because I know that, like me, you all subscribe to dozens of blogs. Reading all those blogs and newsletters can take up a full day.
I also appreciate that you give your readers a chance for extra entries, thank you!
Please keep the extra entries! Thanks!
I would like to keep them
Thanks!
Longtime reader here..I also like the extra entries! A lot of us do read your newsletter just perhaps dont have time for the community too- gonna tr and get there but fall is in full swing and it is rather a busy time.
Thanks for al you do!
I do like the extra entries, but I forget to use them. Ha Ha.
I do also appreciate the extra entries. At a time when blogs are spreading out so much into linking with other blogs, it is really hard to find the time to get to each and every blog on those link lists and become “connected” to each blogger. I am one reader who does not get in to Rita Reviews every day, and often not even every week (due to kids and health issues) …so I am a person who is not saying this solely because I benefit. I just think it’s a REALLY great idea to add special touches for your readers who are true to you and enjoy taking the time to READ you. I just got this link FROM your newsletter, and without opening that up, I would never see how to find the extra entries. Some giveaway or review items are those that are not something our family would use or wish to have, (*but most I read anyway, “just because”), so I love that you give the free entries on all your giveaways and not just certain ones. Keep up the good work:) We all know it’s not easy to please everyone so don’t worry about trying to do so:)
