Substack Coaching

Launch and grow your newsletter, one-on-one with a Substack bestseller

  Enroll in Course

You know you need a newsletter. But how do you build a newsletter that readers will subscribe and respond to?

The inbox is still a powerful tool—far better at communicating with the readers who care about your work than social media, where your posts can easily get lost in the shuffle.

Three years on Substack have convinced me that it is the simplest, best place to host an author newsletter. Since starting Substack, my subscribers have more than tripled. Many of those subscribers have chosen paid subscriptions. I went from a tiny newsletter that I paid to send out every month, to a newsletter that generates income and, more importantly, builds genuine relationships with my readers.

When you hire me as your Substack coach, I'll help you define your ideal audience, come up with evergreen posts to draw readers who are looking for what you're writing about, and leverage the power of Substack Notes and recommendations to grow your readership.
