What type of content should I include in my email newsletter to keep readers engaged?
With all the best tools and strategies in place, another thing you should focus on is the meat of your newsletter. What is it about, and is it something your readers would want to see on top of their inbox?
In this week’s newsletter, let’s explore content ideas 💡 that keep your audience reading and subscribed for more!
🌟 Newsletter content can vary depending on several factors, including your niche and industry, your goals, and your audience’s interests
It is important to have a clear picture of these factors before diving in to ensure that your newsletter is creative or catchy and resonates with your readers. ✨
Marketing News, Insights, & Tactics (+ a workday bonus)
You deserve a super-useful marketing newsletter.
You don’t deserve marketing news and insights that bore you into an early grave.

Your free subscription also highlights tactics and tools to make your work-life easier and more profitable. One of those tools is tripling users’ email click volume. Try that one for free when you subscribe to Inbox Hacking.
There’s no doubt that you’ve gone to Google and searched for “how to…” once or more times in your life. Oftentimes, we go to Google and ask how something can be done. Take this experience as an opportunity to create an engaging email newsletter.
🛠 How-to guides or blog posts simplify how people learn how to do things or understand how things work. This is especially helpful if your audience researches a new tool or device.
As much as how-to guides and blog posts help you find answers to your questions, creating an email newsletter that does the same can be an interesting and compelling read.
2. Top 10 Lists or “Listicle”
Similar to how-to guides and blog posts, Top 10 Lists, also known as Listicles, are incredibly popular in content creation. Users frequently search for the top 10 alternatives or types of applications, tools, platforms, devices, and more.
🗒️ Listicles are an organized and easy way to organize information so that your readers can easily absorb and process your content.
It doesn’t even have to be in the top 10; it can be any number you want! You have to do your own research, though, and make sure that it is backed up and linked with credible resources.
3. Offer special coupons
Sometimes, it doesn’t have to be complicated! Just gift your readers with a delightful coupon or promo code! 💕
🎁 People love receiving great offers, so they'll appreciate receiving emails that provide discounts.
You can also use this strategy to boost your conversion rate by offering an exchange deal. For example, if they sign up for something else you’re offering, they can get a unique promo code. Include a limited-time promo or countdown to it to create an added sense of excitement and energy.
4. Product of the week or new arrivals
You can give your new product the spotlight it deserves! Product of the week or new arrival emails are a powerful marketing tool that brands use to inform subscribers and customers about their newly launched products or services. These are meant to boost sales by showcasing the latest and brand-new features, benefits, and pricing of their products, enticing users to convert and engage.
Write a copy that is captivating and intriguing, and gain traction and conversion from your readers. Include striking product images, compelling product descriptions, and clear pricing info. You may even hype your email by adding special offers or exclusive discounts!
🤳🏻 When done right, your readers will be waiting and tuning in for your next product of the week or new arrivals newsletters!
5. Upcoming events
Whether you're gearing up for a future sale or preparing to launch a new product, your newsletter is the perfect platform to build excitement for any upcoming virtual events. These events could include anything from a forthcoming webinar to live YouTube sessions.
🎏 Keep it SSS—short, simple, and structured.
Make sure all the information is clear and that you’ve included all the 5Ws and 1H. Make it even better by including a clear call-to-action, such as inviting recipients to reserve a slot or sign up for your event.
You can also be creative and make a count down of your upcoming event for added nudge and follow-up.
