How incredibly lucky I found someone that helps with headline advice AND YouTube stuff! I'm trying both out for the first time and I just spent my few hours trying to make a YouTube title and thumbnail (and text) for my video based on my substack article on the same subject. So glad someone can help with both

You came to the right place! Headlines on Substack are also subject lines. That's important and what we have to keep in mind. I'm here, if you need any support

What do you mean "subject line" ? Like in an email? does it relate to YouTube or substack?

I am trying to find something to help turn my newsletter articles into scripts on my YT channel. I originally wrote the scripts first, then started substack and am trying to learn how to present that way.

It took 1.5 years to research, write, record, produce, edit, create thumbnail, write description and post the 3 videos I have so I am looking to streamline the process any way I can

I appreciate the reply Kristina!!

This was such a super conversation and workshop. Looking forward to bringing out fresh articles using Derek’s methods. Thanks Kristina!

Thank you for this one! Saving for a more quiet moment. I tell myself that my German brain can’t write short punchy English titles despite being bilingual it’s just harder to get to the point in a title. Can’t wait to dive in

hmm maybe its time to think a little like Youtube Titles 🤔

Hi Jezz, I started using YouTube titles on Medium. It works... something like: This x broke Medium. A typical YouTube title.

So it's nice to experiment and take the titles from different platforms and try them on another.

Sure! Awesome that it helped you get some more subscribers. Think you're gaining some momentum, Nia. Chapeau for doing this all part-time. This week has been very tough for me because I could only work for a few hours because the kids were sick... sigh

I know this is going to be a worthwhile read when the headline convinces me to 😂
