About this episode: This week we have Simon Owens, a successful independent journalist running a paid newsletter on Substack. Simon also runs a popular podcast called The Business of Content, which is about how publishers create, distribute, and monetize digital content. In this episode we're going to dive into the pluses and minuses of publishing on Substack and when it makes sense to switch. We're also going to dive into the paid newsletter best practices and Simons weekly newsletter workflow.
