How to get 1,000 subscribers on Substack in 6 months.
A 3 hour program teaching you how to launch your Substack newsletter, grow it to 1,000 subscribers, and get dozens of paid subscribers in 6 months.
Substack is a juggernaut.
In 90 days, I grew one of my Substack
newsletters by 4,200 subscribers
And in the last 30 days alone, I grew that Substack by 2,300 subscribers.
I recently discovered 2 key strategies that helped me grow super fast.
1. Notes
Substack's "Notes" feature has been around since April of 2023, but it got off to a slow start.
I used to get 10 likes per note if I was lucky back then, but now I normally get 200+ likes per note. My backlog of Notes now brings in anywhere from 50-100 new subscribers per day.
In this course, I will teach you:
- How to write daily notes in 30 minutes.
- How to format your note to help it get 100+ likes.
- How to capitalize on all the folks who "liked" your viral notes, so they become subscribers.
2. Recommendations
Substack gives writers the ability to "recommend" their favorite newsletters on their publication's home page.
This feature has led to explosive growth for many Substackers, like Lenny Rachitsky. It's led to over 1,000 subscribers for me since July of 2023.
In this course, I can teach you:
- How to get at least 10-15 recommendations from strangers on Substack.
- How to get your audience to recommend your newsletter naturally.
Armed with these discoveries, I plan to have a big year on Substack in 2024, and I want to teach you how to do the same.

Aren't making any money from your writing.
You've tried and tried and tried some more, but can't crack the code to making more than $30-$40 per month writing on platforms like Medium or even Substack. It's not your fault.
Can't, for the life of you, get any views
You spend 3-4 hours at least writing every post, but can't seem to get views to them. You have no idea what's wrong and feel like you must just be a horrible writer. In reality you aren't! You just need to learn how to stand out and package your writing better.
Want to grow by creating content that feels authentic to you
Growing a newsletter is nice and all, but you want to create something sustainable, where you won't burn out within 6-12 months. You don't just want to grow, you want to grow the right way.

Substack has this to say about the typical percentage of paid-to-free subscribers:
If you have 1,000 subscribers, you should have 50-100 paid subscribers.
At $5 per month per paid subscription, you'll be making anywhere from $3,000 annually to $6,000 annually if you follow what I teach in this course.
I'm using the Substack 1,000 method to grow my second newsletter.
In 3 months, I grew my Dad and I's newsletter by 770 subscribers.
I also started a second profile and posted more personal Notes there to see if my system worked from scratch.
SPOILER ALERT: It did. Above are two Notes with over 100 likes that I posted from a brand-new profile.
