Is Substack Good for Artists?

Hello, hello.

This is the Charm Studio podcast.

I'm so glad that you're here.

Sit down, have a cup of tea with me.

I'm gonna be telling you things that no one will ever tell you about Substack in public.

There's some beautiful things about Substack.

We're gonna talk about what it is, the positive things, and the problematic things.

Uh, your art deserves a community that you can actually reach, right? And Substack can be a platform where that can happen.

But let's also talk about the problems and the offing with Substack, and why it might be a great idea to start on it soon, and then fly off it soon.

And this is something I don't see anywhere.

I'm doing a podcast on this because when people are googling things about Substack, the same thing is happening as when they're googling things about the heyday of Instagram, is that artists are being told that this is the new mecca, and this is where you have to be, and you can monetize and make, you know, six-figure income and sell your art and all this stuff.

And I just really wanna talk about the truth of the matter and the beautiful things, easy things about it, what you can take advantage of, and I, you know, 'cause I care about you guys, I wanna talk to you about what I see as pitfalls that you can avoid.
