Every week I share a few thoughts via a simple email newsletter to our WP Daily Contributors and I share with them a little more detail as to what we’re doing behind the scenes as well as to encourage them in their own publishing efforts.
They are a great group and I’m so thankful to already have a growing and robust contributor group! They are the source of energy and power behind a lot of what we do here and we need to thank them even more for their work!
As a result, we’re starting to create a “HEART Contributors” program internally to give them as much thanks as we possible can. I wanted to share my email that I sent the group this morning so you can get an idea of what we’re thinking and where we’re headed:
Hey team,
I’m hanging out in Nashville (or NashVegas as I like to call it) this week keynoting at a neat conference. It shall be grand. I’m not big into public speaking but it’s a necessary part of my function for my team – don’t we all have things that we need to do as part of our greater jobs that we don’t necessarily love to do?
Such is life.
Anyways, hope you guys are doing well. What’s nice about my job is that I can continue to serve you guys as your editor even when I travel. That’s a plus, for sure.
BTW, I want to start rolling our author incentives as part of our larger program to serve our community here. It’ll be simple to start, but for starters it looks like this:
When you contribute:
- 10 Posts – Exclusive interview at WP Daily… this is your chance to market yourself and whatever else you want!
- 25 Posts – Exclusive WP Daily WordPress T shirt. These are only available to contributors. Wear with pride!
- 50 Posts – WP Daily Swag Bag… including coffee mugs and other goodies as yet to be determined.
- XX? Posts – We’re still thinking… but, no one’s close yet so we’ve got time!
Love your thoughts about this! Have a great week – let me know what i can do to serve you!
John
Your neighborhood nashville (for now) WP DAILY editor.
