Let's cut through the chase - here's what new writers and creators are asking me most often right now: Where should I publish?
Do I need to be on social media to grow my audience?
Can new writers still build an audience on Medium?
Do I need to be on Substack AND have a separate newsletter too? Well, the honest answer is it depends. There's no perfect creator stack (and anyone who is selling you one is lying.) Your ideal path depends on your preferences and goals. But as someone who has been writing online for 7 years and has helped thousands of writers grow their audiences, I do believe that Substack is an underrated platform for many creatives right now. I started my first Substack publication in 2020 but left the platform because it lacked discovery features. In 2024, I came back FOR the discovery features they had built in the meantime! I'm talking about Notes, Recommendations, and dozens of collaboration options. Substack is so much more than a writing or newsletter platform right now. It's a powerhouse for creators, experts, and creative minds who want to build a simple yet highly profitable business. And I want to make it EASY for you to take advantage of the platform.

Hey Reader, When my team and I created the Write • Build • Scale publication on Substack last year, we didn't know exactly what role Substack could play in our business. Is it a newsletter platform? A growth channel? Social media? We didn't know, and even creators who had been on the platform for months couldn't really articulate why they thought Substack would be the "next big thing" for creators. A year later, I finally understand: It was hard to clearly describe what exactly Substack is...

Hey Reader, We're celebrating our 10-month anniversary on Substack this month, and if I'm completely honest, these past few months have had a major impact on our business. But we didn't start the Write • Build • Scale publication with big expectations. In fact, we didn't know what to expect at all. There was so much noise and misinformation about the platform that it was hard to see how exactly we could leverage it for ourselves. Here we are, 10 months later, with 10k subscribers, an...
