>Send fun emails.

Eh... I lean towards "no" on that point, unless you can do it well. I've received far too many reddit-tier fellow kids/omg so random/cringe emails, and I hate it. An example from Queal (a Soylent-style meal powder):

  Winter is coming in Westeros and you must prepare by stocking up on food. Who knows if Drogon will fly by and burn your storage of snacks. Or the Night King will come to reign in the long winter. So prepare to receive a package from *REDACTED* with tracking ID: *REDACTED*
  You can keep an eye on the progress of your package with this tracking link *REDACTED*.
  People in the Seven Kingdoms still use carrier pigeons, so please note it could take up to a full workday for the link to become active.
  Autumn will end soon enough, be prepared!

Please just fucking stop. I really like their product, but their emails make my blood boil. Don't be like Queal.

Oh, that's gross. Mine weren't that fun. They were more informal and usually self-deprecating (within good taste).

The closest to that was the quarterly newsletter: I'd highlight the awful and frustrating bugs that nobody saw, and some of the funny emails I got.

That is a perfectly valid point. Don't send fun emails if you can't write fun emails. Humor is an absolute minefield to trample through. You have to cater for your audience and if you don't have a set audience you're limited to the lowest common denominator.
