You don’t have to do anything 😉 and you can always read the newsletter without subscribing. It’s free for everyone. Subscribing does give you extra stuff though, like the following:

• Access to the referral program with the opportunity to earn swag each time you refer a new subscriber
• Points towards earning swag for any links you suggest that get added to a newsletter issue
• The ability to update your profile with your own social profiles, then comment on newsletter issues
• Access to resources providing quick access to important links and other helpful community members
• Future contests you can enter
• Plus, you’ll get the newsletter sent to you as soon as it’s ready!

The newsletter is published each Tuesday at 9 AM GMT. It is posted on social media, but anyone who has subscribed will receive the newsletter via email.

If you have written something on the topic of D365 Marketing (Customer Insights Journeys) or Marketing in general, or if you spot anything you think would be worth a mention, just let me know by sending a message via the online contact form here. Always good to know of others posting about D365 Marketing or if you see anything else other marketers should know about.

As a bonus, if you are a subscriber to the newsletter and recommend something (not your own content) that gets used in a future issue, you’ll get a point for that to work towards getting some swag. 🎉

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any of the weekly emails. Doing this also deletes your profile information and any referrals you’ve generated or swag you’ve earned from the website.

Once you have subscribed, you should receive an email asking you to confirm the subscription. This is to make sure it was truly you that wanted to subscribe. Once you click to confirm this, your subscription is activated and you will be sent the next newsletter. If Tuesday roles around and you didn’t get the newsletter email, check your spam first. If you subscribed with your company email address, also check to make sure it wasn’t blocked by an over eager firewall or network administrator!

Your subscription is linked to your email address, so you will need to unsubscribe from the old one by going to the last newsletter you received and clicking the unsubscribe link from the bottom. Once you’ve done that, you can go ahead and then subscribe using your new email address. This approach is used to keep everyone safe and compliant.

Each subscriber has their own unique referral link which can be accessed by logging in to the site and going to the Rewards page under the Extras menu. By sharing it with others who end up subscribing, you can rack up referrals. Referrals mean you can work towards hitting different milestones and each milestone hit means a new reward for you!

If you are logged in already, simple click on the Extras menu, then click Rewards. From here you can see a list of all of the active subscribers you referred, and the number of links you’ve recommended that end up being used in a newsletter. you’ll then see a list of all the rewards and if you’ve already earned them, or how many points you still need to unlock the next one.

If you are not logged in, simply go to the log in screen, then add your email address to get your magic link. Clicking on that will log you in immediately, no need for a password. Then simply follow the steps above.

The rewards section looks like this:
