Best Practices
Ship and tell. Every improvement, no matter how small, is worth communicating.
Lead with the user benefit, not the technical change.
Include a direct link to try the new feature — don't just describe it.
Close the loop on feature requests by notifying users who asked.
Common Mistakes
Technical jargon that customers don't understand — 'refactored the rendering pipeline' means nothing to them.
Bundling too many updates in one email without hierarchy.
Not including a CTA — product updates without 'try it' links miss the adoption opportunity.
Only emailing about big launches and ignoring incremental improvements.

Benefits Over Features
"Refactored the query engine" means nothing to customers. "Reports now load 3x faster" means everything. Always translate technical changes into user benefits.
Close the Feature Request Loop
When you ship a feature someone asked for, tell them personally. "You asked for X, we built it" is one of the most powerful retention emails you can send. It shows customers their voice matters.
Consistency Builds Trust
A regular changelog cadence — weekly, biweekly, or monthly — shows customers your product is alive and improving. Irregular updates make customers wonder if the product is still maintained.
