✅Join my Substack newsletter to kickstart your newsletter journey and meet me inside "The Substack School"($7p.m.)! kristinagod.substack.com/

I have over a thousand subscribers and will start my paid newsletter this year. Thanks for the motivation Kristina !

I retired from journalism after 22 years and wrote for magazines and newspapers. Set up my first substack in 2021 and my second substack this past week. Thus far. Substack has been perfectly fine for me . I had no expectations other than just having a platform for further writing and there have been no problems thus far. In fact, it just seems to be very writer focused and scribe centric. No distractions, no ads, no other factors. Just your text sent to readers. It just seems to fit me comfortably thus far. I even tried a podcast- something I never wanted to do- this past week. I don't have a lot of subscribers but substack does seem to work.

Fantastic! Could you share the link to your Substack? If you'd like to write with and collaborate with other writers, you can join my Online Ariting Achool. It's a membership exclusive to my paid newsletter subscribers. Best regards!

I joined you as a paid subscriber. I'm excited to learn from the Medium-Substack wizard. 😎👌🔥

I love Substack. I love the restack feature and I love all your tips. Thank you for the mention. I'm sure I'll be restacking more of your newsletters.

Hey June, it's a no brainier because it comes with the paid subscription. This means it's $7 and then you get access to the community. There will also be a Medium School but I'll cooperate with other writers. You could be part of this as well. So again it's easy. Become a paid Substack sub. Linda and 4 others from our Bootcamp are part of it. Doors will open this week. Hope to see you inside ❤️

Such a great video, Kristina! I'd say its a 101 for newbies. Thank you so much!!

Means a lot. Thanks for your nice reply on X and here 😊 it's a walkthrough. I know so many who are on the fence. Especially as a beginner you feel overwhelmed and don't know where to start. Substack makes it super easy to get started, build and audience and monetize your work🎉

Great video Kristina! Glad I found you on Medium. Definitely about to binge your content.

Oh Kristi 😲 Thanks so much. To be honest, last week I reached a point where I started to question my teaching style, my English, and my whole idea of building this channel. Okay I guess the sleepless nights with my baby had to do with it... Messages like this keep me going! Thanks for this and being part of my community and our Substack 🏫 School. Let's give it a try and improve while building it 👍

@@jamcankk that's wonderful. I'm thankful for Arnold Schwarzenegger or Diane Krueger or other German speaking actors that paved the way for loving the German / Austrian accent. 😂 Thanks so much for this feedback!! Hugs!

This is wonderful what you shared and i loved your newsletter. I even recommended your newsletter. Know that I'm open for collaboration

So... Can you repurpose Medium content?And audience? Also ease tell us when you have time, about your experience with Gumroad. Thankyou. Your chanel is very useful.

Hi Louise, 👋 sure. You can repurpose Medium content and vice versa. I see many people doing this. Even Tim Denning. Plus Substack recommends republishing your best posts. Interesting approach. Sure, I can share more about Gumroad. I don't sell an actual product there but I already earned about 700 dollar with free products 😆 that's also an interesting approach. Would you be interested to learn more about this? What else would you be interested in? Thanks a lot for your kind feedback. Means a lot ❤️ Kristina

how long should a newsletter article be?

Hi Michael, great question. From a marketing perspective there are different rules you could follow. I think the most important factors are: Short and sweet. Propel should understand the purpose of your email. No text blocks so people can scan it and get what they should do. Don't bury your calls to action in a text block. As for Substack there's a suggested email length. At some point the editor will say your email is too long Hope this helps already. Definitely a question I'll put on my list to answer on my KZread channel soon. Maybe an FAQ of email marketing rules? More questions? You can AMA Thanks and take care, Kristina
