Dear Subscribers,
In the past two days, we've shared summaries of Chapters 17 and 18 from the Substack Mastery book, authored by
, and the response from our subscribers has been fantastic. Hundreds of you downloaded the free podcasts and encouraged us to continue these interactive discussions about this valuable tool for Substack writers. Those who missed the summaries can still find them for free on our website.Today, we’re excited to present a summary of Chapter 19, which is the most comprehensive chapter so far. Dr. Yildiz is particularly passionate about the tools he’s used to significantly boost his subscribers across not just Substack, but several other platforms as well. His enthusiasm for networking tools and community building is evident; without these skills, it can be quite challenging for freelance writers to grow and earn a living from their craft.
What sets this book apart from many others is that Dr. Yildiz draws on his hands-on experience rather than just theory or second-hand information. He truly walks the talk, bringing years of hard work and dedication to the table.
Unfortunately, Dr. Yildiz has made the tough decision to stop publishing his book chapters on Medium due to ongoing censorship issues. He has shared his reasoning in a recent story summarizing chapter 19.
The good news is that he will continue to share his chapters for free on Patreon, Substack, and his website. It’s a loss for Medium not to recognize the value of such an accomplished writer and supportive leader.
You can access Chapter 19 for free on his Patreon, which also offers free membership with several perks, including the opportunity for Substack writers to share their newsletters. Dr. Yildiz has created chat channels for members to connect and build community.
He aims to cultivate a space similar to Medium, putting his efforts into Substack and Patreon instead of Medium, which has become a less fruitful platform for many of us. While some writers continue to thrive on Medium, we celebrate their success and will support them through our publications.
Here is the link to chapter 19, titled 14 Powerful Tools, Platforms, & Strategies to Elevate Your Substack Newsletters & Skyrocket Your Audience.
He will soon publish them on his website and his Content Strategy, Development, & Marketing Insights newsletter on Substack. Stay tuned.
