It takes 10 subscribers to go live on Substack
|
Howdy Reader! You can go live on Substack with 10 free subscribers. Ten. And you can email every one of them the moment you start, so no algorithm gets a vote on who hears about it. I've been streaming for years, and I couldn't have told you that. I thought Substack was for writers. Today we're sitting down with Jim Fuhs, who's going to straighten me out. Jim is a retired Marine Lieutenant Colonel who has been live streaming since 2018, and now he teaches creators how to use video on Substack. He was scared of video once, too. We're exploring: → What Substack actually is, and what you get for the 10 percent Jim also wrote a whole walkthrough on going live on Substack with Ecamm. Read Jim's walkthrough. And Ecamm and Elgato are running a free workshop on November 12 and 13. It shows you how to record a professional-looking video in one take using Ecamm and a Stream Deck. You don't need either one to attend, and everyone who registers gets the replays. Save your free spot in the Ecamm and Stream Deck workshop. Come watch live and put your questions in the chat. Join us live TODAY, Friday, November 6 at 10 AM Central See ya there! P.S. We use Ecamm to produce this show every week, and Jim uses it too. Get 15% off your first Ecamm purchase by using the code JEFF15. |

Social Media Marketing World was in Anaheim, right next door to the parks, and I was speaking there. The plan was simple: give a talk, then go see THE mouse. Then my back went out, and the only ride I took that week was from the couch to the heating pad. So I moved the tickets and the hotel to line up with Lou Mongello's Haunts and...
Howdy Reader! Johnny Carson kept an arrow on a table behind his desk. It was a prop from a 1964 sketch that bombed. He kept it there so he'd never forget he could fall on his face on any night, and his writers wrote backup jokes, called "savers," for when the first ones died. That's how the most-watched man in late night stayed on top for nearly 30 years. He planned for the flop. Today, on what would have been Johnny's 101st birthday, we're sitting down with Mark Malkoff. Mark hosted The...
Howdy Reader! Quick heads-up: there's no Creator News Live today. I'm at Momentum this week. But on the drive here, I had an idea I can't stop thinking about, and I really want to know what you think. One of my favorite parts of what I do is helping someone make something they didn't think they could make. A show. A video. A system that makes their business easier to run. That moment when "I could never do that" turns into "Wait, I made this?" I want to create more of those moments. And I...
