If you aren't the best in the world at what you write about, you should not have a strictly paid newsletter. You are better off using a newsletter as your top of funnel to drive people to other monetization opportunities.

Yeah that’s wrong. I pay for a variety of entertainment. Should those people only do it if they’re the funniest people in the world? Should substack vet people if they’re only the best in the world? I pay for all types of info. Often in the same category.

I agree. It depends on who thinks your content is worth the money and will sign up. If we focus on being “the best in the world” we’ll barely have any content generators. False dichotomy of best in something vs earning from it.

No that’s not true. I am not saying don’t create content. I’m just saying don’t only create paid content. Create free content on the web, along with paid.

Agree with Sam. Let the market decide. Netflix has more than just Chapelle. “Best” is subjective.
