Lately I have been struggling with Number 5, I am moving in a few weeks to a new state and have some turmoil in my life and it has been a struggle for me to write consistently, I need to work on that :).
I have to say that moving to another state is a big deal, especially when you have more life events happening at the some time. Maybe you shouldn’t be so hard on yourself and give yourself some space. It’s okay to take a break from writing to take care of yourself. Wish you all the best 🙏
Notes and engaging with my audience all the way for me. With both of my Substacks I have grown exponentially by only using Notes (no social media) and engaging with my people. When I look at my little graph right now it says I've gained 713 subscribers in just 30 days.
Kristi, first of all, thank you so much for your comment, truly appreciate it! 🙏
I’ve read your article and I think you’ve really made insane progress using Notes! What an accomplishment… It’s very inspirational and I’m definitely going to use this feature more often. Do you mind if I write an article about your success story?
I’m super inspired and will be referring back to this post. I just started on Substack last week and I’m feeling the sense of community. The vibe is 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
I really wish a majority of my readers are via substack app. Always 95-99% email. How do I change this in your opinion (info: I have over 1000 subscribers)
I’ll make sure to write an article about this soon, but you might want to focus more on writing Notes. And congratulations on the 1,000 subs. That’s amazing!
Reality-tested tips on how to write on Substack. I know it's hard to grow your audience to reach the level you want. There are times you feel like giving up. Writer block ,procrastination, fatigue, low moods, personal etc. All these things can gang up to spoil your writing party. But you have to go on. Write in small phases to spice up your momentum. Be consistent.

No not at all! Thank you and I'd be happy to answer any other questions. I think people helping people grow is what this is all about!
Kristi, as I'm writing the article, I have a few questions.
Did you post notes daily during those 30 days, and how many times a day did you post?
Also, were you engaging a lot with others during that time, or did the success come solely from posting notes?
Sorry I missed this, it was the middle of the night here lol.
I make a habit of posting once per day on Notes. And I engage plenty with those who comment on my newsletters. Also, sometimes on Notes.
Couldn't agree more. And thank you for being so kind and generous. I’ll definitely reach out to you if I have a question!

Thank you and congratulations. That paid subscriber is also amazing!
I'd like to know the numbers, if you have time (it could make for a great article, too).
How many Notes do you publish daily?
How many replies and restacks?
Where do your subscribers come from?
