Hey there!
Thanks for tuning in for our weekly newsletter from Opelika, AL.
I send this newsletter every Wednesday because that’s a convenient time for me. Some people are super precise about “sending times”, but frankly the actual content of the email is the important part.
The content of the email will change week to week, but the point of this newsletter is simply to promote people, places, histories, and happenings that would otherwise go unseen from Opelika. Due to big tech algorithms, towns like ours struggle to promote important subjects.
Who is writing this?
Glad you asked. I’m your host Garrison Snelling.
On any given day you can find me in downtown Opelika walking, drinking, and eating with my wife and son. I love meeting new people, dreaming big, and talking all-things Opelika.
I'm in the tech startup scene and know first hand how the algorithms tend to not care about towns like ours. So if you like the content, helping with the newsletter would be huge.
This sounds cool. How can I help?
Well, thanks! Simply reading the newsletter means a lot. Sharing it with a friend or two helps a ton. Sharing it on social media is amazing (The algorithms prioritize volume of content).
If you have a story idea, email me (Just hit reply). If you want to write that story, include a sample of your writing and a little more about yourself.
Thanks for reading!
-Garrison
P.S. Could you do me a favor? Tell 1 or 2 friends to sign up. It would mean the world to me.
