🧐 To Substack or Not to Substack?
▸ Show notes from the creator
Welcome back to season two of Off the Grid! This week I’ve got a thot take (that's a thoughtful hot take) of an episode for all our newsletter writers out there.
By popular request, I’m exploring the rise of Substack. And I’m asking whether this newsletter/podcast/threads/notes platform is good for small businesses or bad for them.
I’m also helping you answer the question, Is Substack right for me? Tune in to hear more about:
The pros of Substack
The promises Substack makes to its creators
Whether or not Substack is social media
How Substack might be harming small businesses more than helping them
