I saw your interview with Dr. Yildiz. Awesome interview.

Thanks for the tip.

Thank you for all your tips, Yana.

Until I started reading some of your articles and buying Dr. Yildiz books, I had no idea how to build a newsletter business.

I’ve built other online business but never was able to break the code of a newsletter business.

I’m viewing my business from perspective from being a public school teacher to building a writing business.

Thank you for creating incredible tips. I viewed your newsletters several times but haven’t looked into all your newsletters yet. I’ll do that the first chance I can.

Thank you so much, Don. Yes, my content is focused on growing a newsletter business, and I also have a lot on paid newsletter particularly, because that's a challenge for many writers.

I saw your 1 to 1 coaching. After seeing your interview with Dr. Yildiz and your presentation, I’m convinced your course will help me to the next level. Let me check my schedule for time. My summer as a teacher starts in 4 weeks. Growth and expansion by the end of the year sounds doable. I’ll let you know. Thanks, Yana.

Yes, I stopped for a while while ramping up the Unplugged and the Quest, but now I'm on track. I want to keep that one going too :) Hope you like it.

I’m interested in how you build a publication that isn’t meta. Cross promotion will obviously help.

Yes, it will definitely. I have a concept about it, let’s see how it develops :)

You’ll also see in the Quest - the fastest growth strategy: start with meta/hype and build the audience, then expand to evergreen. So far the first part works well for me, now I’m gonna test the expansion part :) hopefully it works, we’ll see :)

This is gold I felt called out a bit..

Sometimes I wait and wait to perfect something, then end up not doing it, sometimes tell myself am not fully equipped intellectually for the task and won't do it. The post is great people need to learn how to step out of thier comfort and just get things done. Mistakes aren't failures they are steps you take to get to your destination.
