Yes, turn on payments as soon as possible. Even with 0 subscribers. This tells people you are building a business.
The hard part is choosing what you offer to paid subscribers. Paywalled content is the least attractive offer, unless you have hundreds of paywalled articles.
true that - I think it's good to figure things out on the go. you can also ask your subscribers what they are looking for etc. just start it off and see where it goes. pivot on the way
Thank you for these insights, Claudia. It's always a good idea to turn on paid as soon as possible. I am yet to do this though and hopefully just as we begin the last quarter of the year. I'll definitely be using some of these insights. Thank you once again.

Pivoting is the rule, especially in the beginning.
And Substack is also changing quickly, another reason to keep changing with it.
I enjoyed. Tell Mambo happy trails. May the road rise up to meet you...

Great advice! I didn't know about the SEO settings! Definitely using that now.
great, happy this helps! :)
Great tips Claudia. I just started with offering post a month to paid subscriptions by offering special
Content. I guess we will see how it goes.
yes exactly, great that you started. it might take a while but trust the process and adjust when needed :)
Really helpful Claudia.
