Highlights! How to Get Substack Subscribers:
After this workshop, you will
a stronger relationship with your writing and Substack by understanding which of the five newsletter modes you're writing in,
a clear understanding of what your free subscribers want and your devoted readers need,
your ideal reader and where to find them, and
clarity on the use and efficacy of external and internal audience-building features like social media and Notes.
What qualifies me to teach ‘How to Get Substack Subscribers’?
(You should ask this of everyone you work with!)
The guidance I give you is based directly on the advice Substack gave me. No marketing tricks. No gimmicks.
I also share with you my experience as
the creator of two bestselling, featured Substack publications (Writers at Work with Sarah Fay and Cured: The Memoir);
a member of Substack’s Product Lab;
a freelance writer at The New York Times and elsewhere;
a former advisory editor at The Paris Review; and
a creative writing professor at Northwestern University.
No one else has the relationship with Substack that I do and specializes in the unique nature of the platform, how it can be used to earn an income, and how it complements traditional publishing and all aspects of a writer’s career.
