Cutting off newsletter to drive subscribers

I’ve been sending full posts in the newsletter to my subscriber base. I’m moving to a paid tier and would like to send the newsletter with only the first 150 words or so of the newsletter then have a click thru to the full page online where subscribers have to pay for the full newsletter. How is that done in Ghost?

Hi there - You can do this by adding a public preview to a paid-only post, and sending the newsletter to your entire audience.

Two gotchas I’ve seen users have:

Access restriction for newsletter content (in email) doesn’t work at the tiers level. If a post is restricted to tier A, tier B members will still receive the full thing. It seems to only work for free/paying.

If you don’t add the public preview line, everyone you select will receive a full newsletter. So be really sure you add the public preview.
