MORE INFO
You've got questions. I've got answers.
Substack is a subscription-based platform for independent writers. journalists, and content creators to publish newsletters or articles and connect directly with their audience.
I have a popular newsletter called The Weekly Page that I've been publishing weekly since November 2019. In 2023 I moved it from Flodesk to Substack, and currently write 4-8 times per month --- a weekly newsletter along with a weekly article.
Although I do not paywall most of my content on Substack, I currently have 13,000 subscribers with over 300 paying subscribers, resulting in more than $16,000 in annual revenue.
I am available from 7AM-4PM Monday through Friday, Central European Time.
That looks like this if you're in the US:
NEW YORK: 1 AM -10 AM
CHICAGO: 12 AM - 9 AM
LOS ANGELES: 10 PM - 7 AM
Not in my time zone? Don't worry! This generally works in your favor --- requests you submit during your day, are often completed by the time you wake up, and my work days are generally distraction-free, allowing me to complete projects faster.
My call schedule extends to 6PM so I do take calls a bit later most days, and often do respond outside these hours -- I just don't want it to be the expectation.
I can expand my availability by request for high-priority projects, launches, etc.
I dedicate 80 hours per month to my private client services, and my other work time is dedicated to other aspects of my own business (my paper goods shop, my Substack, etc). It's important that my clients understand and respect this balance.
Support is provided via email and chat while your project is active. The active period begins on the date of your onboarding call and extends one week past the project completion date. Ex. If your onboarding call is October 1 and the project completion date is October 15, email and chat support will be provided from October 1 through October 29.
Please be thoughtful and efficient with your support requests, and keep the conversation within the scope of our project(s).
Responses will often be immediate if sent during my working hours, but please allow up to 24 hours unless the request has been designated as URGENT (please put URGENT in the subject line.)
