Are You Doing This Alone?

Hi Reader, Most writers who earn a living don’t work alone. Sure, we like writing in a quiet room, a coffee shop, or a library… And we LOVE writing uninterrupted and FREE from Zoom calls, social media notifications, and meetings. But we also rely on support from others. I’m a classic introvert, but I couldn’t run a writing business alone. Nor should you. I regularly work with writers and creators in different niches when I need help with my business. Being able to ask a peer a question saves so much time compared to scrubbing through a YouTube video on x2 or combing through a subReddit for answers. I want to do the same for you. Earlier this month, I teased a new private community for writers who want more hands-on support. It’s an affordable option for writers who want to collaborate and connect. I was surprised by the response, so I’m launching the Become a Writer Today community later this month. You can connect with other writers in different niches and get feedback on your work. I’ll also provide weekly lessons and behind-the-scenes insights into how I write online and run a writing business. These lessons will help you build your audience and get paid. If you want to join the community, reply to this email. Write on, |

Sometimes, I fool myself into thinking it’s “market research”. But I know if I don't press publish, I won’t grow my brand. I almost always feel better when I write a post and press publish. If you’re feeling stuck like me,...
Hi Reader, This week, I launched a private Telegram community for readers of this email list. My goal is to share insider content about how I run my six-figure content business and help you add $3k to yours by 2025. I also want to explore other distribution channels that don't rely on an algo. Then, I can share the results with you so you can do the same. After I launched my Telegram community, a few subscribers emailed me to ask, "Why not WhatsApp?" Well, I picked Telegram because of its...
Hi Reader, For a few years, I was a content strategist for a Fintech. One of my projects was improving a newsletter for small business owners. The newsletter enjoyed a lousy 5% open rate. The back of a cereal box was more engaging than the boring product content inside the newsletter that a developer banged out between coding sessions. So, we stripped out the boring product content and started sending customer stories and how-to guides. And open rates slowly climbed towards 20%. My open rates...
