    3 Lessons I Learned From Publishing Substack Notes for 365 Days Straight

    For the past 365 days straight, I’ve done one thing without exception: I published a Substack Note. On most days, I’d publish three. But always at least one. After publishing so many Notes, I learned a lot about what actually works when it comes to publishing Notes that get good engagement and bring in new subscribers to your publication. In today’s episode, I want to share the three biggest lessons I've taken away from a full year of posting Notes - and how you can apply them to your own Substack right now. 🧰 Grab your FREE Substack Starter Kit: ⁠https://mwa.kit.com/podstarterkit⁠ 📙 Subscribe to Write • Build • Scale: ⁠https://writebuildscale.substack.com/

    Listen To This Before You Go All-In On Substack

    For the past two years, I’ve been going all-in on Substack. Together with my two co-founders, we’ve grown our publication to 44,000+ subscribers and 1,400+ paid subscribers - and leveraged Substack to build a $50k per month digital business. So, it’s safe to say I believe Substack is one of the best platforms out there right now for creators, professionals, and founders who want to build a real audience and a real business. But here’s the thing: I see a lot of people flocking to Substack right now with expectations that don’t match the reality of the platform. And when reality doesn’t match expectations, people quit — often right before things were about to actually work out. That’s why I wanted to share four things you need to understand before you go all-in on Substack, so you’re approaching it with the right mindset and strategies.

    3 Things You Should Know Before Creating Your First (or Next) Digital Product

    I created my very first digital product almost a decade ago. Since then, I’ve created and launched dozens more - online courses, workshops, eBooks, templates, tools - across different niches and different businesses. Over the years, those products have generated multiple six figures in revenue. And I’m still a big believer in digital products. Why? Because you put in the work once, and then the product can sell around the clock. While you’re sleeping. On the weekends. On random Mondays when you’re not even thinking about it. Digital products have always been at the center of every online business I’ve built. But if you’re thinking about creating your first (or next) digital product, there are a few things you should know before you start. These are lessons I learned the hard way - through trial and error. Let’s dive in.
