[2022-02-22 09:11:07 AM] : I took it -- I'm interested in reading the results but mostly I found the questions hard to answer because I really don't relate to this "creator" concept
[2022-02-22 09:15:37 AM] : I understand "creator" in contexts like these as a catch-all term for those seeking a livelihood outside traditional employment (rather than selling your time and skills, you make things yourself and sell them somehow), so I guess this probably captures most 30x500-ers
[2022-02-22 09:24:12 AM] : yeah totally, I just found there's this implicit assumption in the survey that you're on a constant treadmill of "creating" undifferentiated "content" which I find kind of harmful and doesn't make sense to me
[2022-02-22 09:25:17 AM] : I have a bad habit of overthinking my answers to survey questions though :)
[2022-02-22 05:52:27 PM] : Totally agree, fwiw
[2022-02-22 06:19:52 PM] : Does anyone find it odd that it asks for your average email open rate in 2021, but I don't really see an easy way to get that information from ConvertKit. I see my all time open rate.
[2022-02-22 06:34:20 PM] : Haha true, I didn't even think about that
[2022-02-22 06:35:10 PM] : I also don't actually know if CK's all time open rate stat is correct since we send 99% of our emails with sequences.
[2022-02-23 12:54:30 AM] : you can see open rate when you look at your broadcasts
[2022-02-23 02:31:29 PM] : I think their all time number encompasses sequences. I send 99% of my emails in sequences as well and since purging my email list my open rate has been going up without me doing many broadcasts that I can recall.
