Where it all began…
On April 1st 2026, I launched Perranporth Life as a weekly events email.
The plan was to grow it slowly, but who follows plans anyway?
Things escalated, and I quickly learned that Perranporth needed so much more than just one email a week. So, the magazine was born.
But the events newsletter still goes out every Wednesday at noon. If you want to be on the list, click here to sign up. You’ll find archived copies of previous newsletters there, too.
Feature in the newsletter
I regularly run spotlight focuses in the newsletter, where a single business gets its moment to shine. If you’d like a spotlight shone on your business, please drop me an email.
Growing steadily
Since its inception, Perranporth Life has grown steadily without a great deal of promotion, truth be told. At the time of writing, we have 176 subscribers and tend to acquire between 5-10 new members every single week. The click-through rate (users who click a link within the email) hovers between 8-10%.
Our average open rate sits between 60- 70% steadily. Given that most newsletter operators consider anything above 15% highly successful, I’m pretty proud of that!
And, as of right now, not a single person has unsubscribed, so I think we’ll call that a win, too.
If you have an event that you’d like to include in the newsletter, please get in touch. I think you’ll agree from the stats that my subs list is a highly engaged and targeted group, and they want to know what you’ve got going on!
