Write Better, Build Smarter & Scale Faster

Welcome to the Write • Build • Scale Sunday Digest, where we help you write better, build your audience, and scale your income through quick tips and actionable resources.


Everything will compound

Earlier this week, I wrote about how everything you do in your creator career will eventually lead to a larger audience, more money, and a bigger impact.

It's the idea that anything above zero compounds.

The more you put in, the faster your efforts compound.

But let's be realistic: if you're not doing this full-time (yet), publishing endless amounts of content and building huge flagship products might not be possible.

That's why we recommend starting small.

If you can't build a large coaching program for your audience, build a mini-course.

A mini-course is easy to create, easy to sell, and extremely valuable for your audience because it helps them solve a specific problem.

Here's a simple breakdown of how you can create your own mini-course in 14 days:

My co-founder Jari has launched 10+ mini-courses in the productivity niche over the past years and has turned his courses into a fully automated digital business.

By now, he can practically build mini-courses in his sleep. 🤣

7 Lessons from our $45k Course Launch

If you've already created and launched digital products before, you may want to take the next step and run a large live launch.

At Write • Build • Scale, we think of live launches as "cash injections."

Ideally, your creator business makes money every single day, but a launch can help you build wealth since it's generating more income than you need to cover your monthly costs.

We recently published our seven most surprising learnings from our latest live launch to help you avoid the mistakes we made so you can launch with success.


The Sunday Habit for Creators

Every Sunday, spend 10 minutes brainstorming on the following question:

“What’s one thing I can create this week that’s fun, fast, and useful?”

Fun keeps you motivated.

Fast keeps it doable.

Useful makes it valuable for your audience.

You don’t need a master plan.

You need momentum.

Set a timer, pick your “one thing,” and schedule a work session to actually get it done. 🚀

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...
