how to monetize a large list of subscribers?
My newsletters tend to be about the country, real estate, the "good, bad, and ugly " about the country ( which no one else does ). I also tend to get a little personal and am not afraid to share opinions. I have a pretty loyal base and people will show up in CR and tell me that they have read everything I have written. ( I have also written a lot of Ebooks about the country... same thing.. the "good, bad and ugly" and how to deal with specifics.
Now... I am looking to wind down. I am winding down some of my projects and would like to know if it is possible to monetize my list. I have gone over it time and time again, arguing with myself "am I going against what the intent was when I started the newsletter?"...
I would really value opinions. Should I start a sep. letter on a subscription basis, should I offer specific products? Ideas?
I am afraid that my readers have gotten spoiled and will not spend money, but maybe that is just me.
Would appreciate as much positive or negative feedback as I can get.
thanks
