These six expert tips will help you create your successful Substack. This is how to double and triple your subscribers, substantially increase your revenue, build a readership with real engagement, and be a Featured Substack.
Amazing post, I very much related to points 6 and 7. I highly agree on the part of emotional management (point 6) and preferring quality over quantity, posting less frequent but higher quality content that will truly speak to the ideal reader.
Hey Sarah. I just want to say thank you. I've been on substack since July of 2022, but this will be the first year I'm laser focused on growing my subscribers and writing/posting consistently. I hadn't really felt a sense of community here until I joined your chat yesterday and got so much positive feedback from other writers (and you!) and it felt so affirming, just what I needed. I even gained one paid subscriber through the experience who sent me a blurb to use in future appeals! Just know that your work is reaching lots of other creators in incredibly positive ways and you are deeply appreciated.
The “Four Substack Emotions”. Haha love it! I’d add “Metric Melange” for when you feel both happy for and envious of a newsletter peer who outperforms you.
If you click on the link, you'll see the pricing structure (it's in the grey box area on the left of the calendar). I would recommend booking a 3-pack though if you're interested. I didn't at first, but quickly realized 30 minutes wasn't going to be enough time. The other option if budget is an issue is to become a paid Subscriber. The access to all her workshops provide a tremendous amount of information to get you started or to hone in on what you've built already. That is also a great value.
Brilliant piece Sarah! Ever grateful to be on this journey with you. A HUGE thanks for all of your support and help with my own Substack! Here’s to 2024! ✨💫

I have metric melange quite frequently.
Thanks, Sarah! Good info as usual and cheers for the mention.
