The best Consumer Goods newsletters

DIELINE is a free newsletter covering packaging design, brand strategy and design culture, aimed at consumer goods founders and designers. Issues mix short news items, editorial essays and personal asides from editor Bill McCool, with a casual, irreverent voice.

A news digest covering US mass-market retail, grocery and consumer brands, including legal settlements, consumer trend data and executive hires. Readers get short, reprinted-style wire stories rather than original analysis.

AnnesAnalytics publishes daily SEO-style articles promoting everyday consumer products such as laundry folding boards, espresso cups and mini pancake makers. Each issue is a generic, formulaic product guide with repeated headings and little original reporting.

The Flash Report is a series of paid advertisements for Regulation A equity crowdfunding offerings, promoting Doroni's flying car and Green Coffee Company's Juan Valdez distribution stake. Readers get investment pitches with projections and deadlines rather than independent market analysis.
