Featured Newsletters by Substack Mastery Boost Pilot: Episode 15

Curated newsletters of writers contributing to the Substack Mastery publication on Medium to create synergy

Curated Newsletters

Dear Writers and Readers,

It is inspiring to see many writers contributing to our publications now have created their newsletters on Substack. This is a great start to take ownership of your content gradually and continue to build your mailing list using the power of Medium and Substack in an integrated way. 

As publication editors and curators, our goal is to support you on this journey by guiding and featuring your content. We are working on the design improvement and testing of our new Substack Mastery Boost pilot. As announced by our chief editor Dr Mehmet Yildiz (Main) in the monthly updates we are now geared to kickstart this exciting program as of November 2024 planned for 12 months. 

ILLUMINATION Integrated Publications: October 2024 Updates Changes, new submission guidelines, and kick-start of our Substack Mastery pilot for membersmedium.com

Dr Yildiz clearly articulated the purpose of the initiative and created a strategy and plan for the team. All authentic and ethical writers are invited to join our journey. We opened a channel on ILLUMINATION’s Slack workspace to support members.

To make them easier and more manageable, we updated submission guidelines for our major publications such as ILLUMINATION, Curated Newsletters, SYNERGY (Newsletter Booster), Technology Hits, and ILLUMINATION Book Chapters, Readers Hope, and Magnetic Newsletter Pro.

It is important to highlight that we rebranded our publication, formerly known as Substack Mastery, on Medium as Magnetic Newsletter Pro as we want to support other mailing platforms, too. We also want to prevent confusion between our Medium and Substack publications. Details are explained in the updated submission guidelines. 

Thank you for following and subscribing to our publication on Substack. We can now easily find your newsletters and feature them in our curated collection. By using the power of Medium and Substack platforms, we will help you build your audience with collaboration and joy. Without a community, Substack could be lonely for writers.

Substack Mastery Boost is an educational, collaborative, and promotional tool for our community to shine and illuminate society. We are a diverse and inclusive community and look forward to your support and meaningful engagement with our community for mutual growth. We now have a Ko-Fi page to update you.

To support our community of writers Dr Yildiz authored an educational and comprehensive book, Substack Mastery, which will guide you on this journey. His book helped many writers to start Substack easily. Those writers are now building their audiences, and some even have paid members. You can read the chapters for free on Medium via the following links:

Preface of “Substack Mastery” for Beta Readers, Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, Chapter 4, Chapter 5, Chapter 6, Chapter 7, Chapter 8, Chapter 9, Chapter 10, Chapter 11, Chapter 12, Chapter 13, Chapter 14, Chapter 15, Chapter 16, Chapter 17, Chapter 18, Chapter 19…

Our editor Aiden created an education program based on this book. His program is published on Udemy and he also shares the videos with the members of Content Marketing Strategy Insights. Aiden had his first 10 students and he wrote a story about it today.

Integrating Substack with Medium is an excellent approach. Now is the best time to start Substack as the platform is subsidizing writers to increase their paid subscribers. Please check out this story to learn about the details and gain inspiration.

Our Medium publications such as Curated Newsletters, SYNERGY (Newsletter Booster), and Magnetic Newsletter Pro are designed to integrate Medium with Substack to give a competitive edge to our writers.

Guest Blogging for Writers

Dr Yildiz opened his website to guest bloggers, a community blogging facility. Now, we introduce a new blogging environment on our website to enhance the visibility of Medium stories and Substack newsletters. This approach will boost SEO, making it easier for readers to discover content through search engines and increasing the likelihood of converting visitors into newsletter subscribers.

YouTube Channel for Freelancers

We are launching a new video and podcasting service on our community YouTube channel, further expanding the reach and visibility of our writers’ work across multiple mediums. Our media coordinator Aiden (Owner of Illumination Gaming) will be leading this initiative. He created a short video with some descriptions of the services we will provide. Join our exciting journey to reap the benefits of community spirit. Please subscribe to our Substack Channel to get Curated Content from Experienced Writers. Aiden will post all our podcasts to our YouTube channel with subtitles.

Inspiration for Beginners from Writer Interviews

Dr Yildiz interviewed some influential or best-selling authors on Substack to inspire you. Now our new team Substack Boost Pilot will publish interview stories. If you want to be interviewed please leave a comment on the attached story. Friends of ILLUMINATION Support team will organize this activity.
