This is a great piece, thank you! Here's my current simple SS strategy that seems to be working:

Weekly:

1 newsletter emailed to subscribers weekly

1 best of the week / favorite substacks and simple life update as a post, not emailed, and shared in notes

Daily:

5 notes

5 restacks of my favorite reads of the days with a sentence or two

How:

Take all the time you are currently spending on IG, FB, YT, X, (where the F ever you are currently doomscrolling), and use it to read and create on Substack.

I think it can be that simple.

It always amazes me what notes I see that "go viral." I can't quite put my finger on why they do just yet. Maybe that's part of the fun. =]

It always confuses me when people repost Lea's article with the exact same title (and content) as my original article lol.

Claire, thank you for mentioning me twice here. I super appreciate it and hope everyone here has amazing success!
