It looks like #2 is not only about posting consistently, but also (quite) often, right? I started with a monthly schedule, but I'll change it to weekly next month. Thanks for the advice!

Yep, it doesn't have to be strict necessarily but I do think the consistency is one of the most important things for growth. Even bi-weekly is probably fine, it might depend a little on the content you are covering.

I have a pretty good newsletter size and want to turn the subscribers into fans who will spread the word and share reviews. Any tips?

This might seem like a silly question but have you tried asking them? You could send an email to your most active/engaged subscribers and ask them to share the word or reviews.

This is so helpful as shows that even getting up to 79 subscribers has been an achievement!

I was feeling a failure! Also pointing out to look at open rates, much more encouraging than subscriber numbers at first. Thank you- now to do as you suggest and take another look at the details

I think even a number like 79 is amazing. If you could see them all in person then it wouldn't feel like a small number!
