What to do
What named sources recommend, and how they say to do it or measure it, newest first.
Members of the Beeler.Tech community recommend taking subscribers' location from your own membership data to geo-target newsletter ads.
From Beeler.Tech community (two publishers)
Keep in mind: One publisher said geo key-values passed by its newsletter ad vendor arrive for few subscribers, because most read on Apple devices or Safari. Another runs separate newsletters per market.
What people saw
Observations and reported facts, newest first.
INMA's Greg Piechota cited benchmarks from hundreds of publishers on 2026-10-21: the median outlet's newsletters reach 12% to 13% of households in its area. The top quartile reaches 30%.
From Greg Piechota, researcher-in-residence, INMA, inma.org
Keep in mind: Reach is counted against households in a service area, so the benchmark fits local and regional news outlets. INMA gives no sample size or date range. Reach measures audience, not newsletter ad revenue.
Several Beeler.Tech community members said in September 2026 that they had found no good programmatic demand for newsletter ads, so they sell direct.
From Beeler.Tech community (several members)
Keep in mind: One member runs direct sponsorships with programmatic backfill on a newsletter ad platform and calls it workable.

Dan Oshinsky of Inbox Collective said inboxes sorted by AI will rank newsletters by opens and clicks, INMA reported on 2026-10-21. He said newsletters that readers ignore will sink.

Keep in mind: His reading, given in an INMA webinar. He gives no data. He expects most people to keep reading their own email; he sees only a small group of power users handing it to AI agents.
