## Messages to send Mindie
- Draft day: "Every Tuesday at 7pm remind me to draft this week's newsletter"
- Send day: "Every Thursday at 8am remind me to send the newsletter"
- A monthly issue: "On the 28th of every month at 10am remind me to send the customer newsletter"

A newsletter reminder on WhatsApp is a message on the day you draft and another on the day you send. With Mindie you set both once: "every Tuesday at 7pm remind me to draft this week's newsletter" and "every Thursday at 8am remind me to send the newsletter". They repeat every week until you stop them.

Readers notice when a newsletter goes quiet. One skipped week becomes three, and the next issue starts with an apology. A steady rhythm matters more than any single issue.

## When to be reminded

- **Two days before send day,** to draft without rushing.
- **On send day, at the hour you send,** so it goes out when readers expect it.
- **A week before a special issue,** like a launch or a holiday sale.

## Why issues get skipped

- **Writing gets left to the last minute.** Then the last minute gets taken by something else.
- **No set send time.** If it can go out any day, it often goes out no day.
- **Ideas are scattered.** Half in notes, half in your head, none ready when you sit down.

## Habits that help

- **Split drafting and sending.** Two reminders beat one big deadline.
- **Keep an ideas list.** Add to it all week, then open it on draft day.
- **Reply "done" when it's sent.** Your chat with Mindie becomes a simple record of what went out.

## How Mindie handles it

1. **Send your draft and send days** in one message or two.
2. **Mindie confirms** each one, like "Every Thursday at 8:00 am: send the newsletter".
3. **It messages you** on each day, in your timezone.

If you're away one week, snooze it until you are back. Ask "what's on this week?" to see both reminders together.

## What Mindie doesn't do

- **It doesn't write or send the newsletter.** It has no access to your email platform.
- **It doesn't manage your subscriber list.**
- **It only messages you,** never your readers.

## FAQ

### Can Mindie send my newsletter?
No. Mindie doesn't connect to email tools. It reminds you; you send the issue from your own platform.

### Can I collect ideas for the next issue?
Yes. Send "add to newsletter ideas: holiday opening hours" any time and ask for the list on draft day.

### Can I set a reminder for every other week?
Yes. Send "every 2 weeks on Thursday at 8am remind me to send the newsletter" and Mindie repeats it on that pattern.

### Can I set one reminder to write and one to send?
Yes. Set a weekly one to draft, like Monday at 10am, and another to send, like Thursday at 8am.

### Can I save a link I want to include?
Yes. Send it as a note, like "for next issue: link to the pricing study", and ask for your ideas when you write.
