Subject: Re: Newsletter- should I offer for free?

My apologies if this is somewhat off-topic.

In regards to Ms. Clarke's comment about free e-zines. I disagree. I firmly
believe that a for-fee (correctly priced) newsletter is an apropos alternative.  It simply depends upon the publisher's area of specialization, and the reader's motivation, need, and desire to read and apply the newsletter ---- for their specific reasons.

Researching, writing, editing, marketing, selling, distributing. and
managing one's newsletter is a full-time (I work 40-70/hrs. weekly even at the planning stage) endeavor. Consider what your time (obviously limited) is worth, then decide if you think selling ad space is sufficient.

Newsletter business models are wide-ranging and change constantly. There are
no Ten Commandments for Publishing a Newsletter --  and nothing is cast in
stone.
