I suppose you could use a lifecycle hook in your CreateProduct class.

protected function afterCreate(): void
{
  // do what you need to do to send the newsletter. Perhaps dispatch a job
  SendNewsletter::dispatch();
}

Or if you prefer to use a lifecycle hook on the CreateAction itself

CreateAction::make()
->after(function () {
    SendNewsletter::dispatch();
})

@fahmiegerton this is how I have implemented

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
 
CreateAction::make()
    ->using(function (array $data, string $model): Model {
        $record = $model::create($data);
        // action that needs to be done 
        return $record;
    })

    })

May I know where do you put this?

@fahmiegerton
You can use it in header actions and in table actions as well. But do mind this is only for simple resource. If you are using pages use lifecycle hooks.
