A few weeks ago, I introduced you to the Substack Growth Audit - my first personalized offer and a special bonus for annual paid members.
That was the main reason some of you upgraded your membership.
It was a joy doing audits for you, and the feedback has been absolutely amazing!
But one thing has become very clear: a personalized audit like this is a substantial service. I can’t sustainably include that level of one-on-one work in the annual membership forever.
So I’m changing the structure.
This is the last chance to get a personal Substack Growth Audit as part of the annual membership at this price. I won’t offer this combination again.
You have from now till September 13th to take action and claim your audit.
From September 14th on, it will be part of the new Founding member tier I’m introducing, and the price will reflect that.
If you don’t know yet…
The Substack Growth Audit is a personalized review of your Substack with strategic recommendations to help you grow your audience, improve your content, and unlock monetization opportunities.
WHAT’S COVERED INSIDE:
✓ Your Substack profile, branding, and positioning;
✓ Your publication structure;
✓ Your content strategy, articles, Notes, and SEO potential;
✓ Your monetization setup and income opportunities;
✓ Your biggest growth opportunities and next steps.
It’s delivered as a detailed PDF with actionable steps.
This is for you if...
You’re publishing on Substack but growth feels slower than expected.
You want an outside perspective on your publication.
You’re unsure if your positioning is clear enough.
You want to attract more subscribers and build a stronger audience.
You want to improve your content strategy.
You’re ready to turn your Substack into a real business.
This is NOT for you if...
You don’t have a live Substack yet.
You’re looking for a complete beginner guide to starting a Substack.
You want overnight growth or guaranteed results.
You’re not ready to implement changes.
You write fiction (this audit is only for non-fiction writers).
You want generic advice that applies to everyone.
And here’s what others are saying about it:
“The Audit was life changing for me. You really nailed all the areas I know I can improve!
I think EVERYONE should do this. If you are feeling like you want someone that will give you real, actionable feedback no matter where you are in your creator journey, you need this in your life. I think it is especially helpful to those still figuring it out and trying to focus on what will add the most value. Thank you so much, Lidiya!!!”
“The audit helped me stop treating low engagement as proof that an idea wasn’t working. Lidiya gave me the confidence to stay consistent long enough to gather useful data while showing me how my positioning, content pillars, Notes, and offers could work together.
She helped me turn Substack from something I was constantly reacting to into a strategy.
I’d recommend the audit because Lidiya sees your publication as both a reader and a strategist. She doesn’t just tell you what to fix. She also explains what matters most, why it matters, and how all the pieces fit together.
I left with more than feedback on my Substack. I left with a plan for using it to grow my business.”
“I booked the Substack Growth Audit because I didn’t have a clear content strategy and I had no idea how to actually monetize my Substack. I was just posting whatever came to mind and hoping something would work.
Lidiya went through my whole publication, every single post, my About page, my welcome email, even my Notes. She figured out my content pillars on her own and honestly, she got them bang on.
She also pointed out what I was good at and what I wasn’t, and told me to just double down on my strengths. That gave me so much more clarity. I’m way more confident now about what to actually create and why.
If you feel like something is leaking in your publication, or you have hit a plateau and don’t know why, a fresh pair of eyes makes a huge difference. And honestly, who better than Lidiya. She is an SEO expert and a great blogger, and she has grown her own Substack really fast, so she clearly knows what she is doing.”
“I received an extensive 30-page custom report filled with practical advice, SEO strategies, content ideas, engagement tips, and monetization opportunities.
Following Lidiya’s recommendations, I was able to build a complete action plan and growth strategy for the rest of the year.
Lidiya brings incredible industry expertise and precision to her work. Her advice is clear, beautifully structured, and deeply supportive.”
I am still working on the PDF Lidiya gave me after the audit, but since I started, my subscribers and followers have increased.
I have also become more focused on the readers of my work.
It is such a significant change, Lidiya, to have someone do an audit on my Substack so that I can concentrate more on what I should be doing when I am on Substack. My engagement statistics have increased.
Lidiya did a thorough review of my Substack and I started seeing immediate improvement after taking her advice. Super helpful!
The five-part audit that included a section – ‘What I noticed in the first 30 seconds.’ If that would have been the complete audit, it still would have been worth it.
Any writer who is hoping to grow their Substack presence should consider getting feedback. I would highly recommend Lidiya’s Substack Growth Audit as offering high value for the cost.
What will new annual members get after the audit moves to the Founding tier?
I’m not going to leave new paid members hanging. I still want them to transform the way they see and run their publication and writing business and get them to take action in the right direction.
So for them, I will create a self-guided version of the audit I do. And then they can use the weekly Q&A paid thread in the chat to ask all their questions. This is the closest thing to an actual 1:1 support from me.
The premium, personalized service, though, where I actually spend hours of my time analyzing your Substack and creating a growth strategy for you, will be reserved for Founding members.
If you join the annual tier before September 14th, you get the Substack Growth Audit under the current offer (+ all the other perks paid members get, such as exclusive content, weekly Q&As, detailed Substack income reports, behind the scenes of my business, and a lot more to come).
After that, the audit will no longer be included in the annual tier at this price.
Wonderful offer. I'm glad you're taking this vital step.
Most of my work lately has been poetry plus a Creative Writing prompt, so I'm thinking we would not be a good fit.
How lucky for everyone who is!
Blessed be. 🔮
Well done, Lidiya! I can't devote much time to my Substack right now, but I'll keep reading your letters and your valuable advice. Thank you.
