We crossed 400 subscribers on Substack within 26 days!

When

first told me about the Substack Campfire and how excited he is about Substack in general, I was hesitant.

I didn’t know how exactly Substack could help us grow our business.

I’m still not excited about our earnings here.

At $8/mo, we’d need A LOT of paid subscribers to make a significant amount of money.

I’m running a private membership at $97/mo, and my entry-level course for writers costs $597, so I’m used to a different lifetime customer value than what I expect through Substack subscriptions.

Yet, I already see the huge benefit and value of being here.

Over the last 26 days:

  • We sold our Write • Build • Scale Database through a simple link on the publication page.

  • We already won customers for the Write • Build • Scale Mastermind.

  • I got to connect with incredible writers, which already led to great collaboration ideas.

We have an enormous amount of content that we’re excited to share with paid subscribers over the coming weeks, and even more ideas to promote the paid tier.

Looks like the rest of 2024 will be full of experiments, and I’m beyond grateful to run them together with

The Substack Campfire was a brilliant kickoff for the Write • Build • Scale publication on Substack. Thanks for the wonderful community and personal support

I spent a lot of time overthinking whether this is the right time to start. Looking back at the last 26 days, it absolutely was!

Summer is a great time to test new ideas and gain an unfair advantage.
