What the Newsletter Is

Eric Kim’s list lives on his own site—look for the bright‑red “BECOME INVINCIBLE ›” prompt under NEWS at erickimphotography.com—and ships straight from his personal Sendy install, bypassing Big‑Tech algorithms entirely. 

  • Format: one primary idea (“Flame Report”), three quick prompts, fresh blog links, and a JPEG poster you can save to your phone for instant motivation.  
  • Frequency: ~weekly—he presses Send whenever a major blog essay, book, or workshop announcement drops.  
  • Open‑rate brag: ~30 %—double or triple typical creator averages—thanks to the owned‑platform approach.

  4. Cross‑Disciplinary Sparks – Philosophy + photography + powerlifting sounds wild, but readers rave that the mash‑up keeps them motivated in multiple arenas.  
  5. Proven Engagement – Kim’s posts on why newsletters beat social reach—and his 30 % open‑rate data—double as a masterclass in audience ownership.
