No, this isn't clickbait - I actually asked my grandma if she liked what I'm about to share and she DOES. But I have to go back to the '80s to make my point.. that's when my Turkish family immigrated to Austria. And there was one thing I hated while growing up: My grandma always asked me if my friends were Turkish. (Because she thought they'd be better friends if they were lol) Everywhere we went, she told me to be friends with the Turkish girls - at weddings, on vacations, anywhere. To her disappointment, I rarely had Turkish friends throughout my life because I always felt like an outsider. Well, at least until now. 20+ years later, grandma is proud because I now have a Turkish creator friend, which, in my opinion, makes up for all the girls I didn't talk to while growing up. 😆 So here's the full story: I recently connected with Ciler Demiralp, the founder of Newsletter Circle. Ciler is interviewing top newsletter operators and has built a massive catalog full of interviews with incredible writers. But that's not even the most impressive part about her work. Last year, she published an in-depth report analyzing the Substack Landscape. Her goal was to:

And well, long story short.. you're invited to join us for an exclusive LIVE event next Tuesday where we combine data-driven insights with actionable strategies to help you grow and thrive on Substack this year:
Substack is BOOMING right now, and 2025 is the best time to start or scale your newsletter. You'll leave this session with the big picture of the Substack ecosystem (based on Ciler's amazing report) and the tools to make consistent, strategic progress toward your goals. The event is free to attend and will happen live on YouTube on Tuesday at 6 pm CET. All you have to do is add the session to your calendar so you show up on time - no registration required. I hope to see you there, my friend! 👋 PS. Here's a cute photo of me & my grandma on a recent breakfast: |

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...
