Today’s listener has achieved a milestone: they have 3,000 people on their list! That’s great, but because email list providers charge based on subscriber numbers, the monthly subscription cost keeps going up as well. Can anything be done about this?
"I've got more than 3,000 people on my newsletter list now, which is exciting! But I've also noticed something that's giving me concern. Now that I have more signups, my subscription costs more. I guess that makes sense in some way, but does it just keep going up forever? What if my 3,000-strong list turns into 30,000? What if I grow it all the way to 100,000? Could it eventually cost thousands of dollars a month? It bothers me because I'm not currently selling anything, so I don't really have a way to justify the expense. Is there a way to get an unlimited email list account?"
