What is it?
This strategy is all about building hype for your next newsletter before it even drops.
A day or two before you hit send, start sharing little previews and teasers from the upcoming issue across all your social platforms.
You could share an eye-catching stat, a quotable snippet, or just a vague-but-enticing sneak peek that sparks curiosity.
The goal is to give your followers just enough to get them saying "Ooh, I gotta read this!" without giving away the sauce!
