Hitting 799 Subscribers From 'Learning In Public'

i've been at it for 8 months now, curating marketing examples and sharing them here, and i'm finally starting to speed up my subscriber growth / day to the point where I can say 'join 1000+ subscribers in my bio' 😮

i started The Growth Archive because I wanted to learn more marketing strategies for my VA agency, based on what other successful businesses are doing, so I thought, 'why not make it public for everyone else.'

That has been the best decision I've made as a solopreneur, as its given me a potential new revenue stream, helped me build tons of connections with talented people and ultimately learned so much too.

I recommend everyone to start doing this on the side, espicially if you dont have a business idea or community yet, just start writing and sharing what you are learning every week.

    Cool. I just published my newsletter, and I struggle with marketing. Currently at ~145 subscribers. It is very hard to market it if you don't have a lot of followers on social media.

      If you have the budget, you can spend on ads $1 CPA. Reddit comments and posts are great for organic growth, you don't need a large following to grow on forum platforms like that.

        kind of late to the party , but I'm also starting a newsletter, which strategies would you say are good for reaching that $1 CPA? It's well within budget for me but I wouldn't know where to start.
