Grow Your Substack With Customized 1:1 Coaching
Stop writing to nobody on Substack.
Look, you’ve gotten 1.5 new subscribers in 90 days, and one of them is your Mom. You don’t know WHAT’S going wrong, but something’s wrong. Don’t worry! I can help you:
Diagnose why your writing isn’t resonating on Substack.
Fix these fatal errors.
Create a 3-month plan for your newsletter.
Includes a Notes strategy, Newsletter strategy, and Networking strategy.
How I’ll help you escape the Substack void
Once you sign up for coaching, I’ll send a form with 7 questions that’ll help guide our calls.
You’ll tell me your:
Goals
Problems
Desires for the call
Purpose of your newsletter
Then we get to work, baby.
I’ll audit you in these four areas:
Packaging - Poor graphics, headlines, color schemes, and branding lead to potential subscribers running for the hills. Making your newsletter beautiful is the first order of business.
Niche - Many writers have so much knowledge, but can’t simplify it well. I’ll help you translate your expertise into a simple language people can actually understand, carve out a focused, profitable niche, and develop a coherent content strategy for your next 6 months and beyond.
Writing - Mastering short form and long form writing are so important for growth. Luckily I’ve written short form on platforms like LinkedIn and Twitter for 6 years, and long form on platforms like Medium for 9 years. I’ll give you detailed 1-1 feedback on your Substack Notes and Articles so you can get more traction on them. I’ll also develop a Substack Notes strategy with you and review your recent Notes every time we talk.
Community - Community is king on Substack. If you’re not engaging with anyone on Substack, that’s going to change PRONTO. I’ll help you create a personalized outreach strategy so you can start making friends on Substack in your niche who support your work, recommend your newsletter, and send new subscribers your way on auto-pilot.
If there’s a problem in any four of these areas, we’ll talk about them and work on them one-by-one.
If you do what I tell you to, you’ll see a drastic increase in likes, long, heartfelt comments, loyal readers, and even paid subscribers.
Why Work With Me
I recently grew my Substack newsletter by 10,000 subscribers in a matter of 6 months. I did so primarily via short form Notes.
But I’ve been blogging online full-time since 2016.

Garnered 5,000,000+ views on Medium
Made $75,000 blogging on Medium since 2016
Garnered another 5,000,000 views writing short form on LinkedIn
Ran 10 writing cohorts on LinkedIn with 400+ writing students (2021-2024)
Had 1,000 students join my Medium Mastery course since 2017
Had multiple students write a single Medium article that made $5,000+

I have built a following of 15,000+ on seven platforms, including LinkedIn, Medium, Substack, Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. Figuring out how to grow a following online is my specialty, and I can help you do the same on Substack.
One Of My Students Grew By 3,000 Subscribers
A paid subscriber of mine, Marie Vandoorne, grew her newsletter, The Bored Millennial, to over 3,000 subscribers with the power of Notes.
I won’t take credit for all her success, but she told me one of my trainings helped her write a viral Note.
This viral Note, to be exact.
Marie does this great series where she takes us behind the scenes of her newsletter growth. Here’s a screenshot of her subscriber growth on Substack since she got started in January.
She went from 346 subscribers to 2,046 in May alone!
Another Student Grew By 1,000 Subscribers
Paid subscriber Tuğba Avci grew by 1,000 subscribers over 4 months of working with me.
She told me “I started sharing notes in April, which coincided with joining your community and attending your notes training. This was very helpful for me as I have only ever written long-form content in the past. I got some excellent ideas on how to write better short content that complements my Publication.”
Another Student Grew By 470 Subscribers In 30 Days
I run a special Notes Challenge every 4 months at the Substack Campfire. During our first challenge, Michael Thompson gained 470 total subscribers, with 311 of them coming from Notes specifically. 👇
