Thank you for your kind and generous response Dr Giles. Everything you said here deeply resonated with me as we come from the same generation. Medium is still best for monetized content especially for beginners to find an audience. The only nuance is Substack has changed in late 2023 by adding Notes which made a massive shift for discoverability. As I review my stats and the ones I mentor I can see where the traffic is coming from. If used properly Notes can make a great difference. Yes we have started a boost pilot to jump start beginners by educating and inspiring them. I am leadig the project and hoping to make it production by December 2025. So far we are making a good progress. For establish writers like you Substack is a goldmine and I will be happy to support you. As of today 135 members joined and I am guiding them through my Slack workspace. You are welcome to join the team. I documented the draft on my website. It is not commercial selling a service but offering an affordable alternative marketing model to freelancers and entrepreneurs who plan to scale their business.
