Episode notes

The top 10 sub-stack creators apparently make a collective $25 million per year. But not all of us want to run to email lists also very fair. So there is nothing stopping you from downloading your subscribers' emails when you want to sell something, using that for sales or inviting folks to opt in to another email list where you will be talking about your courses.

Welcome back to season two of Off the Grid! This week I’ve got a thot take (that's a thoughtful hot take) of an episode for all our newsletter writers out there.

By popular request, I’m exploring the rise of Substack. And I’m asking whether this newsletter/podcast/threads/notes platform is good for small businesses or bad for them.

I’m also helping you answer the question, Is Substack right for me? Tune in to hear more about:
