In this episode of the Digitally Overwhelmed Podcast, I'm exploring how to grow your Substack newsletter and turn it into a consistent audience-building channel for your business. Substack has become a powerful platform for creators because it blends newsletters, publishing, and a social feed experience—all in one place where you can also monetize your content.

I also break down how Substack fits into your broader marketing ecosystem and share why it can work whether you're running a service-based or product-based business.

You'll learn three core growth strategies:

• How to leverage Substack's internal recommendation system by optimizing your categories and settings so the platform can surface your content to the right readers
• Why collaborations (guest posts, swaps, partnerships, and joint content) are one of the fastest ways to expand your reach and build trust with new audiences
• How to use SEO strategically inside Substack to help your content get discovered through Google and AI tools, without over-optimizing or losing your authentic voice
