“Being able to make a living off my writing has always been my dream since I was in college and I took my first journalism class. Eight years and a lot of failures later, Substack provided me with a platform to be able to succeed. It’s honestly allowed me to achieve my dream. I make more money now than I had at any salaried journalism job.”

A better model for writing.
The ad model demands that writers attract 40,000 page views every day to earn just $1,000 a month. With the Substack model, a steady base of 1,000 subscribers paying $5 each month earns you $60,000 per year.
“I had no idea my Substack would grow like this. I am getting hundreds of new subscribers every day and it has no sign of slowing down. The reason it’s growing so fast is because almost 250 other Substackers are recommending it. This is what makes Substack different from the competitive nature of social media.”
