Dear Writers and Readers,

Welcome to Substack Mastery, a new publication on Medium.com that gives voice to writers who illuminate readers as part of the ILLUMINATION Community, bridging two distinct and large platforms. Each platform brings unique values to freelance writers, content entrepreneurs, and independent creators who write just for the joy of writing.

As part of the ILLUMINATION community, the Substack Mastery publication is an education, collaboration, and promotion tool for creators, freelancer writers, and content entrepreneurs both on Medium and Substack. We have a public publication on Medium where subscribers can introduce their newsletters.

Submission Guidelines for Substack Mastery on Medium

The purpose is to educate beginners, help members collaborate, and promote their newsletters on multiple platforms like Medium, Substack, Quora, LinkedIn and social media tools like Facebook, X, and Reddit.

In this series, we introduce you to 10 newsletters of our contributors on Substack Mastery. This offer is open to all authentic writers adhering to platform rules and our publication guidelines. We don’t allow harmful content, plagiarism, and AI-written content. We accept newsletters on any topic.

Led by our chief editor Dr Mehmet Yildiz, this unique initiative, Substack Mastery, aims to cross-pollinate our writers and readers both on Medium and Substack to create synergistic collaboration. Each platform is unique and we encourage our writers and readers to leverage the power and features of them.

We introduced Substack Mastery in a previous post, so we will not repeat the details. Please review the details of our service and guidelines in the attached story.

Welcome to “Substack Mastery” Publication by the ILLUMINATION Network on Medium
We renamed the previous “Substack on ILLUMINATION” publication to avoid confusion with our other publications.medium.com

Dr Yildiz built the ILLUMINATION publication on four core values. Now we will apply these values to Substack and grow our community as big as we did on Medium. Join our exciting journey and keep collaborating with meaningful engagements and acts of kindness. The more you give the more you receive.

Our mission is to support and empower content creators.

We will continue providing free services to creators. However, to support freelance writers who want to earn money from their content on Substack by increasing their paid subscribers, we will offer a premium service through an optional $5 monthly subscription. This means that we will still support non-paying members with complementary content to guide them in building their newsletters and will give marketing support to freelance writers and content entrepreneurs.

This $5 membership for ILLUMINATION Premium through our freelancer library on Substack will provide extra valuable resources in all our Substack newsletters, including educational opportunities, promotional support for newsletters of creators, and amplification of content on Substack, Medium, blog sites, other content platforms, and our tailored social media tools. We will design a comprehensive service for content entrpreneurs using our founding membership price.

Under the strategic leadership of Dr. Yildiz, our chief editor, and his team of 10000+ industry leaders on LinkedIn, we will be crafting a comprehensive marketing strategy. Our ambitious five-year goal is to grow to 5 million members, establishing ILLUMINATION Connect as a premier network for creators.

Dr Yildiz committed to invest 80% of his content marketing efforts to Substack as he explained the reason in this story on Medium.com. He has been supporting Medium writers since 2019 through his leadership for ILLUMINATION Integrated Publications.

Join us at ILLUMINATION’s Substack Mastery, where your creativity meets a supportive network dedicated to helping you shine.

To jumpstart you on Substack, our chief editor wrote a comprehensive guide for writers.
