Lots of people seek advice.
Few act on it.
All the prep work in the world won't help a filmmaker if she never calls, "Action!"
Now, on to this week's ideas...

1. How To Get Your First 1,000 Subscribers
"Before you get too hung up on building an audience, first ask if what you're writing is actually interesting."
There's no one way to grow an audience so it's helpful to study how different creators have done so.
Stew Fortier interviewed a bunch of creators about how to get your first 1,000 subscribers and they each reveal the way they built their audiences - from their initial outreach to friends and family, to how they used social media, to how they attracted word of mouth.

2. How To Create Content That Sustains A Career
"I would encourage you to think about what you want to do with your content, what do you want to achieve beyond what we would consider vanity metrics?"
Often when people struggle to get value out of their content it's because they're focused on the wrong things.

3. The 12 Keys To Creating A Successful Course
"By using this framework, you'll be able to make more confident decisions about your course pricing, length, student count, and more."

4. The Secret To Organic Growth
"Consistency is, it turns out, pointless without adaptation."
No audience grows without consistency, experimentation, and patience.
Dave Nemetz explores the secret to organic growth and discusses an often overlooked part of the organic growth equation: The importance of adaptation.

5. How To Tell If You're Working On The Wrong Thing
"It took 15 minutes to confront that those are the things I care about—to varying degrees. What's crazy is that I didn't do this exercise until a few years ago."
Julian Shapiro recently decided not to start another startup and then shared a tweet thread explaining the process he went through to get to the decision.
