Hey everyone, I'm back! 👋 I took a little break as my summer job started, and I wanted to give you a quick update. For the rest of the summer, this community will stay active with posts, Q&As, and discussions to help you stay accountable and get the best results possible. I need your help to make it even better, so don't hesitate to share your questions, wins, and struggles! That said, I'll be a little less active during the week because of work, so it's normal if you see fewer posts from me. I'll still do my best to show up consistently. I'd also love to see some of you share your own posts, lessons, or questions. That's how we build a great community together. That's all for now, I'm excited to see everyone's progress! 🚀 Question: What's your plan for the summer, both on Substack and in your personal life?

Tomorrow's workshop is where I'll teach the full newsletter growth strategy. But today is different. This is our Live Skool Q&A. A more relaxed session where we can connect, keep each other accountable, answer your questions, and look at what you're actually working on right now. We'll talk about things like: ✅ Your current growth challenges ✅ Subscriber acquisition questions ✅ Positioning and content ideas ✅ Staying consistent when motivation disappears ✅ My personal systems and workflow ✅ Anything newsletter or creator-related that you're stuck on Sometimes one question can save you weeks of confusion. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, unsure what to focus on, or simply want feedback from someone who's currently building a newsletter too, this is the perfect place to be. 📅 The live starts in 1 hour. To join, simply head to the Calendar section inside Skool and click on the event. Looking forward to seeing you there and meeting more of you live. And then tomorrow, we'll go deeper during the free Newsletter Growth Workshop. 😁

Most people start a Substack thinking growth comes from writing more. Then they publish for weeks or months and wonder: Why isn't anyone subscribing? How do people actually get their first 100 readers? What growth strategies are worth spending time on? The reality is that growing a newsletter isn't just about writing. It's about positioning, distribution, engagement, and building systems that compound over time. That's exactly what we're covering this Saturday, June 21 at 10:30 AM EST. During this free live workshop, I'll walk through: ✅ The foundation every successful Substack needs ✅ How to position yourself so people actually subscribe ✅ The growth channels I would focus on if I started from zero today ✅ How to turn readers into an engaged community ✅ A live breakdown of my own newsletter and growth strategy 🎟️ Save your free spot here:https://william-leroux.kit.com/workshop (Registration closes June 20.) Happy to see you there if you are looking for a fastest way to grow, accountability, clarity (and connecting with me!😁)

Welcome back to a Live Growth Board! Super excited to see your progress! (Kind of crazy that it's already been 13 weeks!!) Where you get the chance to see your progress each week, ask question and be accountable. Which is the best way to grow on Susbtack and in this community too. Each Monday, we share our work, stats and progress in the classroom! It’s also a great way for me, and the community, to support and cheer each other on. Just share your update like I did below 👇 For me: Subscriber count: 1851 (previously 1796) Open rate: 22% (previously 20%) Notes published: 35 (previously 27) Growth comments: 200 Classroom work: I am working on our first Live together. It's in late June, make sure to save a time for it! Excited to talk to you all. Question: what part of your Substack you think to work more on?

If you could steal ONE habit from your favorite Substack writer, what would it be? Their consistency? Their writing style? Their networking? Their ideas? 👇
