Me encantó este curso porque es claro, directo, conciso y va a al grano. Pero creo que si falta algo: explicar o hablar sobre esas compañías que tienes que contratar para poder enviar tu newsletter, porque si no, vas a acabar igual que como empezaste: aj´, todo lo entendí bien, pero ahora... ¿Qué hago? ¿Cómo envío mi boletín? O sea, que al menos haya una plática introductoria a eso

This course is a great way to fill in some gaps in knowledge you may have before starting your newsletter project. I had already been running my newsletter for 8 months before enrolling in this course and I was happy to find out that, apparently, I've been doing things correctly. The course gave me a boost of confidence in my work, as well as some new ideas, and I feel ready to start A/B testing -- the one thing that I hadn't tried yet.
