"This might be the most fun I've had growing my newsletter." — Chenell

And here's how Chenell's doing it.

We're giving you a behind-the-scenes look at how 30 Days of Growth is going—and how we’re planning to make the most of the final stretch! With over 2,600 signups already and a massive giveaway in motion, this mini-launch is becoming more than expected… but can it be even bigger?

In this episode, Chenell & Dylan break down what’s working, what could be better, and where we’re focusing our energy in the back half of the campaign. We get into the growth levers we’ve pulled so far—like cross-promotions, private podcast feeds, and Substack experiments—and brainstorm ways to maximize reach and increase referrals. It’s a total fly-on-the-wall session, so you’ll hear the real-time ideas, dilemmas, and strategies we’re exploring to keep this momentum going.
