Everything I’ve Learned About Substack In the Last 8 Months
Why I believe in Substack more than other platforms.
Last year, I decided to jump from ConvertKit to Substack.
I did it because of a single reason (or person) — Lenny Rachitsky, the person with the biggest business newsletter on Substack.
He has over 650,000 subscribers. He charges readers $15 a month to get access to his weekly articles — he’s converted enough readers to the paid plan to do well for himself.
I love his business model. And I eventually want to follow a similar path.
In the eight months I’ve written Substack I’ve learned a lot. Here’s everything I’ve learned.
Substack Has Awesome Recommendations
One of the best things I’ve noticed about Substack is that it has recommendations.
Since relocating to Substack, about 5+ other newsletters have recommended my newsletter, which is awesome. I think other newsletter platforms do this, but I never received the amount of recommendations I did until I switched to Substack.
It also helps that I’ve consistently posted on Substack every week without missing a week.
