I&#8217;m a marketing and business consultant, writer, and &#8220;idea guy&#8221; who&#8217;s obsessed with curiosity, creativity, learning, and curating valuable ideas to share with others.<\/p>\n<p>I also run the popular <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/NewsletterCreators\/\">Newsletter Creators Facebook group<\/a> &#8211; if you&#8217;ve got your own newsletter or are planning to start one please join us to connect with other creators and get tips about how to grow your newsletter!<\/p>\n<h2>Can I suggest an idea to be featured in the newsletter\/website?<\/h2>\n<p>Yup. Just <a href=\"mailto:josh@joshspector.com\">email me<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>What&#8217;s the deal with the logo?<\/h2>\n<p>The logo is inspired by the story of the <a href=\"http:\/\/antoniokuilan.com\/blog\/sacred-rain-arrow\/\">Sacred Rain Arrow<\/a>. During an unforgiving drought, a young Apache warrior was sent on a journey to a medicine man who blessed his arrows which he then shot into the sky in the hopes of ending the drought for his people.<\/p>\n<p>As our Facebook feeds have filled with content that&#8217;s the equivalent of junk food (or worse, hatred and negativity), I started this newsletter as an antidote to that.<\/p>\n<p>Each idea I share is an arrow shot into the world, hoping it delivers value and positivity to those who consume it.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s why I chose this logo. Well, that and the fact that it looks cool and I always dug Robin Hood stories.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ll be honest: This site may not be for you.
