Happy weekend!

Dear Creators, Writers, Book Authors, and Content Startups,

Today, I have an inspiring update and an invitation to become beta students for a remarkable course for advanced writers, your instructor (Aiden), and I poured our hearts and souls into in the last six months.

This post is not about selling a course, as it is not my goal; rather, it is about inviting beta learners to benefit from it, collectively improve it, and make it a valuable community resource. I want to provide an experience-based, empowering, affordable, and comprehensive learning program that remains accessible in today’s economic climate. Marketing any product or service is essential, as potential buyers must be aware of it for it to exist and be useful.

In business terms, the knowledge, frameworks, and insider strategies gathered in this program would normally be spread across multiple programs costing well over a thousand dollars.

By consolidating this program into a single, structured system, I aim to make high-level professional development accessible while ensuring it reflects the depth, breadth, rigor, and time investment required to create it. As you’d appreciate, creating a just 10-minute video takes at least 10 hours. We made over 50 videos, and it is impossible to justify the price we offer for beta learners.

After six months of careful preparation and reviews, I am pleased to inform you that the From Zero to Substack Hero: Advanced Mega Bundle (Levels 4, 5, and 6) is now published and has passed Udemy’s Quality Assurance review.

Aiden MC

(a media expert in Australia) completed recording the videos over a month ago, but the additional time was necessary for me. Alongside my hectic schedule, I wanted to ensure fundamental requirements were fully met so the course would be accepted without compromise as a beta offering to the public.

Based on my four decades of educational experience, I know that it is impossible to make any course perfect. So instead of dealing with analysis paralysis, I got it published in a reasonable shape and form and offered it to beta learners for further improvement. We need to act with agility and improve incrementally.

I chose to release the course yesterday with a significant launch discount for interested beta students. In the current economic climate, many freelance writers, book authors, and content startups are facing financial challenges. I see this as an opportunity to extend generosity and open the doors of access as widely as possible.

At the same time, I am aware that giving access to education materials for free rarely creates genuine commitment. A small investment ensures that learners approach the course with responsibility, focus, and accountability, qualities that are essential for progress.

This is not just a recording of existing material. Over the next month, I will continue to enhance the course with exclusive content drawn from my private coaching sessions, where I share strategies, new methods, and insider perspectives that are not available elsewhere.

My aim is to turn this into an outstanding lifelong learning experience that empowers committed learners to refine their voice, expand their reach, and grow with confidence on Substack and beyond with the knowledge and skills required.

By keeping the price at a minimal level for early beta learners, I hope to strike a balance between generosity and sustainability. It enables me to cover production costs, ensure continuous improvement, and reward those who join us at this early beta stage with lifetime access to every update.

All I ask from beta students is honest feedback on what you find missing, unclear, or needing more depth in the videos, assignments, checklists, or essays. This feedback will be invaluable for me to improve the course and make it a valuable community resource.

I will enrich the core lessons with supplementary articles and additional guidance so that this becomes a lifelong learning resource. The skills we discuss extend beyond Substack or Patreon and can be applied to any platform, even those we have not yet imagined.

This course does not contain simple things like how to use Substack or use countless Notes daily to succeed. They have been covered concisely in L1. This is L4, 5, 6 strategic success tips you can’t find elsewhere without paying a premium price. They include novel and nuanced information, which helped me gain over 200,000 subscribers in the last 12 months.

Thanks to Substack, Medium, and my author platforms, without any paid advertisements, the From Zero to Substack Hero course was found and is now used by students in 18 different countries, with the majority from the US, Canada, Europe, and Australia. Most students are from the United States and Australia through our connections on Substack, Patreon, and my website. We haven’t even done any marketing or promotion yet.
