2018 - Finish my bachelors degree, convinced I'm going to climb high the corporate ladder 2021 - Completely burnt out of work, hoping that one day I'll be able to build something of my own. 2022 - The startup I worked for goes under, I move to another one, tired of working for somebody else but need more money. 2023 - Finally decided to quit my job and start pursuing my dreams as a solopreneur. 2024 - 16 months in, not sure how it's done and decide to give this journey one more try. 2025 - Make my first online $! I got paid for a product that I built! 2026 - Turned that product into a 110k/year business. Up until mid 2025, my path was unclear and I wasn't sure if I ever going to make it. But I kept pushing forwards, telling myself that it's part of the journey and that it will be worth it eventually. If you are there, struggling, keep on. I believe in you.

I quit all of social media. I focus only Substack. Now I have 7,100+ subscribers and a 6-figure business. I write daily and try to write at least one email a day. It works. You just need to do the work.

There's no secret to growing on Substack. Post, reply, DM, repeat. Took me from 700 subs to a 6 figures business.

WriteStack has 2,740 signed up users! If you'd ask me 15 months ago what would be a GREAT achievement, I'd probably say 100 users. It's wild how things turn out wen you focus.

Stop trying to go viral. Start trying to be valuable.

Don't give up. I know it's hard, but I believe in you.

Honest writing is ALWAYS better polished writing. Pepople will remember you for you authenticity and weird quirks. NOT because you wrote a harvard grade Note.

How important is knowing who you target audience is? VERY. I just made a decision to try Cal.com over Calendly just because I saw that it's better for developers. **3 words made the difference.**

We interviewed NYT best-seller Joshua Lisec This is what happens when he detects AI: "When someone feels it's AI is a wall goes up. It's because they demonstrate by copying and pasting the output that they don't actually know if what they're saying is true or not."

Substack is the BEST platform to be on right now. It's the only platform that: SUPPORTS the creators and helps them make more money Let's you OWN your audience. A killer combination that you get nowhere else.

I have talked ot hundreds of founders in the past few years. Without a doubt, @tibo_maker is probably the best one I've seen. Even though he is busy running 6 companies, generating 8 figures, he still finds the time to answer my questions about Revid and even implement features I ask for. Keep it up man 💪

More dreams are destroyed from distraction than incompetence.

New Dashboard is coming to WriteStack!! After I got so many requests for it, it's coming.

This is why WriteStack is the #1 tool for Substack creators. Some founders treat their product as a side hustle. Some take it seriously and give their users the best f*cking experience they can.

I sometimes see this type of posts, saying company X is done. Well, this is FAR from the truth. The company has to run this free tool somewhere. It costs. The company has to hire someone to run and main it. It COSTS. The company has to make sure it applies to GDPR, SOC 2 and other acronyms. It COSTS. At the end of the day, it's easier for a company to pay (probably MUCH less) a tool than spend the time and money to figure it out on their own. And if you're not a company, you won't pay that much.

Most people want a big audience before they start monetizing. Honestly, you should start monetizing from day one. Tell me what stops you from doing so.

Here are my statistics for the last month: - Total impressions: 52,310 - Total notes: 231 - Average impressions per note: 226 - Best note: 1.2K As shown on writestack.io
