Hey Reader,

When I started to publish on Substack this summer, I received dozens of emails with questions like:

• Why did you start to write on Substack?
• Are you leaving Medium?
• Is Substack better than Medium?
• How did you grow your audience on Substack so quickly?!

The short answer is that Substack is an addition to my existing channels like Medium and Convertkit. I'm not replacing those.

And to be fair, Substack has proven to be an excellent addition with lots of benefits that I don't have on Medium or Convertkit.

To pass on what we've learned over the last two months, we decided to host a special boot camp called Substack September inside our paid Write • Build • Scale community this month.

However, after giving it a lot of thought, we decided to also make Substack September accessible to you so we can help you understand:

• If Substack is an exciting opportunity for you
• How you could possibly use Substack
• What (not) to do when getting started
• And how to truly make money using Substack (beyond paid subscriptions)

When you join us for Substack September, you'll be invited to various live events like:

• A Substack 101 Live Crash Course
• Our monthly Substack Roundtable
• ​A wonderful fireside chat I'm hosting together with a Substack bestselling author​
• And many more!

On top of that, you'll receive behind-the-scenes insights and will be able to build your first publication together with us over the next weeks.

We'll share with you what we did to gain more than 800 subscribers within less than two months since launching the Write • Build • Scale publication on Substack:

Alright - let's get to the point:

• Substack September is starting this week. Our first live training is happening on Friday. All events are recorded so you can catch the replays at your convenience.
  ​
• To join Substack September, subscribe to the Write • Build • Scale publication with a 30% discount on our yearly plan.
  ​

For less than $60, you'll be able to get access to all trainings of Substack September and you'll get year-long access to our member-only content on Substack.

We're making this offer for 2 reasons:

• Community and engagement plays a huge role on Substack. It's the primary reason we've been able to grow so quickly and is vital for your growth as well. When you join us, you'll be part of a thriving community that'll support your journey.
  ​
• We want to gain paid subscribers to become Substack bestsellers!

Whew - that was a lot of bullet points! 🟠

Hit reply if you have any questions - I hope to meet you at Substack September!

Big love from my screen to yours,
Sinem
