Hey guys, Stan here, co-founder of Epiclist! Thanks for the comments! @detaro, we have been running a be-weekly newsletter and integrated with social services. While it has increased retention, it was still hard to maintain it as you mention as well. Focusing on several cities to curate weekend getaways was really helpful to boost engagement in this cities, since people could discover experiences to do a trip within a day or two! I hope that someone can nail the "weekend getaways", which is a growing market in itself! Let me know if you have any other questions!
