Email newsletters are all the rage right now. I’m involved with a few companies in the space and always get asked what is the fastest growing hybrid newsletter [newsletter is primary distribution platform and how company was founded] ever. Can you guess?  While we don’t have a lengthy data set, it’s not Thrillist or Daily Candy [roughly ~35k users at close of year 1] as many think, but rather GOOP, the Gwenyth Paltrow creation that already has over 500,000 users after about 10 months.
