Boost Newsletter Shares with a Social Sharing Feature

What's a good way to help readers share my newsletters on social? I would love to add a "share" section to the bottom, that included an image and social text (including link to my signup page) that would auto populate a reader's fb, insta, etc on click. Is that possible?

    Yeah with custom embeds. eg here’s a button for an X post: <a href="https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=https://your-newsletter-signup-page.com&text=Check out this awesome newsletter! Subscribe for more: " target="_blank" style="display: inline-block; margin: 10px; padding: 10px 20px; background-color: #000; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; border-radius: 5px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Share on X</a>

    Also be sure to turn on the socials switch in your email header in the Email section of the post builder. This will let your readers share to their social networks in 1 click!
