I'll turn this into a game and use all the prompt suggestions here. I might be talking to no one, but I can still have fun while doing it 🤪

Thanks, Sarah!

Thanks, Sarah! My question is — do you think your notes have to always be related to your main topic/focus of your Substack? I’m having trouble finding my niche on here (online entrepreneurs, like coaches, creatives, course creators, consultants, etc)

Funnily enough the one that I shared as part of last weekend’s Cohort session on Notes. It must have benefited from a little of Sarah’s magic dust. As to why? A mix of reaction to the image, and in the early stages the reference to Klimt resonated with some. https://substack.com/@michelagriffith/note/c-73397508

I had two notes that went viral. One was “what I wish we had been taught at school” which is still going over 3 weeks later and I’m about to write a post on it https://substack.com/@theburnoutrebellion/note/c-70701829?r=30c5ht&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=notes-share-action

And the other is things I thought would make me happy vs what actually does https://substack.com/@theburnoutrebellion/note/c-69119741?r=30c5ht&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=notes-share-action

Both were completely unexpected but have prompted such interesting discussions. I hope this helps anyone looking for a viral note format ❤️

I think I have tried most of these, (not a drawing - yet.) My best one was 4 likes and 2 restacks. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. But I am keeping at it.

I guess this means my long rant about right-wingers on Substack is a no-go? 😂

Thanks for these Sarah! I’ve had a long break from notes as so much going on in my personal life, I needed this! 🧡
