As if

The Author Stack

and

Sparkle on Substack

didn’t offer us enough strategy and space to elevate our work here on Substack, its creators

Russell Nohelty

and

Claire Venus

just released a co-authored book packaging just about everything you could need to know: How to Build a World-Class Substack.

Back this project on Kickstarter now through Aug. 31 to get bonuses alongside your copy of the book.

Join in as I sit down with the pair to talk about the power of Substack for writers and creators, and explore how the platform can change the game for those looking to grow their audience organically.

We cover:

• Growing and engaging a Substack audience

• Branding to attract and retain subscribers

• Finding and expressing your unique voice

• Creating a safe and supportive community

• Being honest and authentic in your writing

• Collaborating with others to expand your reach

• Maintaining your sustainable energy levels

They even share the one thing they think it really takes to build a world-class Substack.

And it’s something you can use today.

Thank you for being here! I pour a lot of love into this space and I hope you can feel it. It wouldn’t be the same without YOU! 🫶
