Celebrating the Becoming Minimalist Community and a Book Giveaway

Hello Everybody,

Let’s try something different today and have a little bit of fun.

This past weekend, Becoming Minimalist reached a significant milestone I wanted to share with you.

We officially surpassed 100,000 email subscribers!

That’s a pretty impressive accomplishment worthy of celebration. It means more and more people are being introduced to the life-giving benefits of owning less. And it means our community and our movement continue to grow in significant ways.

Asking people to subscribe via email to receive updates from Becoming Minimalist has never been a huge priority for me. But recently, I’ve begun to change my thinking about that. For starters, there are many readers who appreciate the convenience of receiving an email whenever we publish new posts. I want to make sure readers know that is an option if that’s what they prefer.

Additionally, and equally important, I have just created a 10-day “getting started with minimalism” email sequence to people who subscribe. The sequence includes a PDF copy of my best-selling book, Simplify, as well as first steps people can take on their minimalism journey. It serves as a helpful touchpoint for people who discover the blog, find themselves interested in minimalism, and are ready to start owning less and living more.

If you would like to join the ever-growing email list to receive the free book and email sequence, click here.

For those who have already joined, all 100,000 of you, thank you for being a part of this encouraging community and providing opportunity for this celebratory post.

I’d like to offer a special thank you to everyone who reads Becoming Minimalist. Every month, we welcome over one million unique readers and our Facebook community has now grown to 800,000. These numbers are a credit to each of you who have so generously shared this blog and its articles with friends and family.

Thank you, thank you for supporting Becoming Minimalist and helping to share the inspiration!

To celebrate, I’m giving away 7 book bundles specifically to this community.

Each prize bundle contains:

• An autographed, hardcover edition of The More of Less.
• An autographed, paperback edition of Clutterfree with Kids.
• One free registration to our upcoming Uncluttered Course ($89 value) beginning on September 5th.

The prize is open to all readers from around the world—we’ll ship the books anywhere for free.

To register for the drawing, leave a comment below.

In the comment, tell us where you are from and which Becoming Minimalist post you remember reading first (or how you were first introduced to this site).

*I know some of you have been reading for many years and do not recall your first introduction, that’s okay, just do your best.

On Friday morning, we will use an online Random Number Generator to select the winners and begin contacting them via email. I will also announce the winners on this post.

Thanks again for being part of the Becoming Minimalist community and making my work so enjoyable. I am more grateful than you realize and I look forward to the comments below and subsequent interaction.
