Raleigh Hidden Gem:
Today, we need your advice. We normally put short blurb about a Raleigh hidden gem or secret spot here. We’ve momentarily removed this section to ask you the following…
Our daily newsletter (what you’re reading now) is free but we need your support. We’re thinking about creating an additional email newsletter with the goal of introducing you to nearly every hidden gem in Raleigh, delivering one per day to your inbox. It’s not cheap to run this newsletter and it wouldn’t be cheap for us to build out profiles of 365 hidden gems in the Triangle.
The newsletter will remain free, free, free but we’re thinking of supporting this new exclusive service by charging $99/year.
These exclusive emails will leave you knowing Raleigh better than any of your neighbors. Think secret Japanese gardens, underutilized back patios at cool restaurants, views to die for, and so much more.
Before we spend hundreds of hours building this bonus service, can you let us know what you think by taking the poll below? Any payment for this bonus service would help support our free main newsletter as well.
