We just had an amazing conversation with Tara about how you can build a Substack only with a podcast, monetize it, and grow it.
Tara’s takeaways you can steal today:
Use mini clips to promote the full episode.
Caption everything; silent scrollers convert, too.
Batch-record and slice weekly one-minute promos.
Use Substack “sections” to test new show ideas without spinning up new brands.
We also talked a lot about AI and the future of the creator economy. It’s exciting, a bit scary, but it all depends on how humans use AI.
Bottom line: Substack just turned podcasting into plug-and-play SaaS. If you can talk, you can bank.
