The Flyover is a national email newsletter business that started in February of 2023 and sends the top news stories to your inbox daily, Monday through Saturday. The name, “The Flyover,” is a reference to the flyover states in the USA, a derogatory reference to the middle states that get ignored by Washington and the mainstream news. The Flyover is reframing the term as a badge of honor.
Artifact was commissioned to design a visual identity and brand around their name, build a number of marketing assets, and most importantly the HTML template for their daily newsletter, which must meet high deliverability standards across numerous email platforms and interfaces.
The newsletter has been wildly successful and are now expanding into their Weekend Edition and The Texas Flyover.
Update: After 1 year, the newsletter now has over 500,000 subscribers.

- Brand style guide
- Advertising pitch document

- Various vector illustrations for the newsletter and collateral
