Cons:
Whether you feel the pros outweigh the cons or not, there still is great value in looking into the platform once it is released. Utilizing new Marketing strategies and being one of the first on board is a great way to become known in your industry, since you're on top of it before it's saturated.

However, should you consider switching to a social media's platform to do this? Let's weigh the pros and cons of this.
Pros:
- Perhaps it will be free to use
- Facebook would probably give it good promotion (to sign up)
- Your audience already is likely on Facebook
- It can be another avenue of income for your business
Cons:
- The more eggs you put in one basket, the worst it can be when the basket is taken away
- You want to be sure you have control over the newsletter list (in case it is taken away in the future)
- There are many other newsletter platforms to consider, many that are already very good
- Probably it won't replace a regular newsletter platform
