What I Learned in My First 2 Years on Substack

Lessons learned while building a newsletter business

I had just one subscriber when I sent my first Substack email; myself!

Today I have a gross annual revenue of more than US$16,000 from Substack, with 171 paying subscribers and 4,268 free subscribers across three Substack publications.

These days I also help other people get started on Substack.

In November 2023 I shared the five most important lessons I learned in my first two years on Substack in a post on Medium. Click the box below to view it for free (no Medium membership needed)
