Meco Awards 2023FASTEST GROWING NEWSLETTER
There’s been a lot of hype around AI in 2023 so it’s no surprise that AI newsletters saw the most growth in readers on the Meco app. The fastest growing, Superhuman AI, rocketed to over half a million total subscribers by sharing the best ways to leverage AI and boost productivity.
HOTTEST NEWCOMER NEWSLETTER
Launched in June, Strategy Breakdowns has already amassed over 30k readers through breaking down strategy playbooks from the world's greatest companies. It can take years to find your voice but Tom Alder nailed it from the start which is reflected in the high levels of engagement from readers in Meco.
READERS CHOICE NEWSLETTER
A reader once boldly stated that James Clear’s newsletter had “the most wisdom per word of any newsletter on the web”. Given this newsletter received the most saves, highlights and revisits within the Meco app - it’s hard to argue! Each issue includes 3 ideas, 2 quotes, 1 question and a whole lot of wisdom.
MOST SHARED NEWSLETTER ISSUE
There were so many incredible reads this year but Packy McCormick led the way with an avalanche of shares in Meco for his piece - Riskophelia. Society has become more risk averse over time, and the Not Boring author makes the case for us to collectively push towards a more resilient, risk taking and vibrant future.
BEST PRODUCTIVITY NEWSLETTER
Anne-Laure Le Cunff has been relentless in her pursuit for ways to be more creative and more productive with actual science-based strategies. Her community’s continual praise and her high reader retention rates helped her claim the crown in what is the most highly contested newsletter category.
BEST TECH NEWSLETTER
One classic daily newsletter that always delivers in the tech space is TLDR. Each issue collates the most interesting stories to make you smarter. After such success with this newsletter now TLDR is branching out into more categories such as Crypto, startups and design.
BEST NEWS NEWSLETTER
This year has been crazy when it comes to news, politics and global events, making it more important than ever to have the right sources to stay up to date. The International Intrigue really went above and beyond to help make world news that was simple to understand, apolitical, interesting and easy to digest.
BEST BUSINESS NEWSLETTER
The Bay Area Times skyrocketed to fame seemingly overnight, with their daily newsletter focusing on the latest in business and tech. Their ascent to over a quarter of a million readers was no surprise, given their highly engaging visuals and ability to break down important news stories.
BEST NEWSLETTER CURATOR
A reader once shared that curated newsletters offer a unique glimpse into the browsing history of top thought leaders. Marketing Max has not just mastered this art for one, but three marketing and business newsletters. Curation is often hit or miss but Marketing Max always hits the spot for Meco readers.
NEWSLETTER OF THE YEAR
Sometimes a newsletter really pushes the boundaries and innovates on the whole newsletter format, Chartr has done exactly that. Each issue includes beautifully designed visuals to break down the most interesting stories and data within business, tech, entertainment and society.
