It only took 3 tries but they were finally able to fix my A/C yesterday. What started out as something I thought was one thing - a water leak - morph into something totally unexpected. Did you know that if the drain line for your a/c gets clogged it will shoot water out of random places and flood your basement? Yep, that's what happened. On top of the line being clogged it was clogged in a way up high space that the first guy missed on 2 occasions. He thought he'd blown out the line but apparently there is another place in the line that he missed and that was totally gummed up. All is well now - and we slept gloriously. 🪅🥳💃🎊🎈🎊💃🥳🪅 This week's monetize your mission mastermind is going to be all about notes - creating them and leveraging them to grow. If you're serious about Substack this is going to be a big one for you. (yes, there will be a replay) We do these Thursdays at 2pm mtn - they are free and everyone is welcome. Mark your calendar here 🪅🥳💃🎊🎈🎊💃🥳🪅 You may have noticed with going through notes here that there is a "related notes" section that often shows up under the note you go to visit 🪄Related Notes is Substack's way of keeping a conversation going. When someone opens a Note and scrolls through the replies, Substack often shows a selection of other Notes it believes are about the same topic or would interest that reader. You don't turn this on, choose the related Notes, or tag them manually -Substack selects them automatically using its recommendation system. ✍️How Related Notes Work When someone reads your Note and scrolls through the conversation, they'll often see a Related Notes section. These aren't Notes you've linked to yourself. They're chosen automatically by Substack based on what its algorithm believes is related to the topic or interesting to that particular reader. That means every Note you publish becomes another opportunity to be discovered - not just in someone's Home feed, but alongside other conversations happening across the platform.

Have you ever noticed that some people seem to show up on Substack and almost immediately start getting subscribers, conversations, and engagement... While others post for months and feel like nobody even knows they're there? It's easy to think those people got lucky. But most of the time, there's something else happening. Their foundation is working. Before you worry about growing your Substack, you want to make sure your Substack is ready to grow. Because growth gets a whole lot easier when the basics are in place. Things like: ✨ Your profile clearly tells people who you are and why they should follow you ✨ Your publication explains what people can expect from you ✨ Your settings help people discover and connect with you ✨ Your welcome experience invites people deeper into your world ✨ Your content has a purpose beyond just "posting something" ✨ Your Substack is connected to the bigger picture of what you're creating Substack is not just another place to publish content. It's a relationship-building platform. The magic happens when people can find you, understand your message, and know what the next step is. That's why I always recommend building the foundation first. Can you figure it all out one piece at a time? Absolutely. That's what this community is here for. Every post helps you understand another piece of the puzzle. But if you want to put the pieces together faster, join me for the Substack Setup Intensive. We go through the important settings, structure, and foundation pieces so you aren't guessing what you missed. 👉https://hartlifecoach.com/substack-intensive And once your foundation is built... The next question becomes: "How do I actually get people to see it?" That's where the Client Acquisition for Coaches community comes in. Inside we have a Daily Notes Boost thread where members support each other, discover new voices, create conversations, and help their content get moving. Because Substack growth isn't just about posting more.
