Ben_MissinglettrQ: Frequently Asked Questions: 1) What type of content can I add to the Postbox library for others to share?
Pretty much any content can be shared through the Postbox platform. So whether you have an amazing blog post, a landing page, a video or infographic that you want to promote to a wider audience, then Postbox can help. When adding a piece of content to the library, you’ll get the chance to compose the social post and add the link to the content so that it’s easy for others within the Postbox community to discover and share it. When composing the post you’ll also have the option to create unique versions for each social platform (i.e. you might want to create a slightly longer post to go to Facebook and a shorter, more direct one for Twitter).
2) How likely is it that my Postbox content will be shared?
This is a great question and one that we spend most of our timing thinking about too. Firstly, it’s worth noting that although Postbox users can choose to automatically fill their schedules with matching content if they want to, our primary focus within the platform is to empower users to ‘discover’ the best content, which they can then choose to share with their audience should they want to.
As such, the quality of your content and how relevant it is for its intended audience is really important. The better the content (and the less sales focused it is), the more likely it is that it will be shared and distributed across wider audiences. Due to this, we obviously can’t guarantee a specific number of shares or clicks.

3) What happens if I already have a Missinglettr account?
We’re pleased to say that this AppSumo offer is available to existing Missinglettr customers as well as new ones. If you already have a Missinglettr account then don’t worry - we have you covered. Simply purchase this deal as usual and follow the redemption instructions. As long as you are already logged into your Missinglettr account when redeeming the AppSumo code, we’ll detect that and automatically add the lifetime Postbox deal to your account. We’ll also add the additional social profile and scheduled posts limits that you get with this deal to your existing account limits.
So just to clarify, for those of us that bought the Missinglettr deal previously, rather than improve your product to existing owners and include us in your growing feature set, you're forcing us to purchase your product a second time, only this time with the upgraded feature set? What am I missing here?
I thought the value and reward for investing in start-ups was to hope that as they grew their early supporters would be rewarded for taking a chance on them. Clearly this is not the case. We instead paid to be marketed to later with features that should have been made available to all existing members who took a chance on you.
Am I the only one who feels this way?
Hey Jeremy,
Thanks for reaching out and sorry if this has frustrated you, that's certainly not the intention.
Postbox is a brand new product within Missinglettr and is something that literally anyone (past or new customers) will have to pay separately for. If you head over to our public pricing page (https://missinglettr.com/pricing/) we have Postbox listed there are one of our optional Add-ons.
We don't do this often, but in the case of Postbox it's not really an upgrade to the existing Missinglettr product but something that represents a brand new direction and product in-itself. So much so that we almost launched it as a totally new businesses with its own brand but later on decided to incorporate it within the Missinglettr brand as a new add-on product.
I hope the above goes a little way to providing some context around the decision and direction of the product. Im more than happy to answer any other questions if you have any.
Thanks,
Ben
