Use Substack with Cal.com

Substack is a publishing platform for storytellers of all types, from comic book artists to citizen journalists and lifestyle bloggers. Substack helps creators connect with their audience. One of the things that makes Substack unique is that it functions as both a blog and a newsletter. This makes it easy for readers to subscribe to their favourite authors and have posts delivered directly to their email inbox. Additionally, Substack supports paid memberships, allowing creators to monetize their work and earn a living.

Whether you're an artist, a real estate agent, a librarian or a religious leader, having a substack is a great way to broaden your reach and cement your position as a thought leader. Having a well-received Substack can lead to further opportunities for growth, such as sponsorships and motivational speaking gigs. But things like this don't happen overnight, and they always involve some form of networking. As you know, life online has a funny way of mirroring life offline. So, it's no surprise that networking on Substack often involves a lot of back and forth and comparison of schedules.

This is where Cal.com comes in and makes life easier. From interviews to brainstorming sessions, and sponsorship meetings with Cal, scheduling is a piece of cake.
