Loved this! Finn was actually the first builder I met on Substack, so it's wonderful to get to know his story. Well done, both of you 🤗

What I love about Finn is that he digs deep under the hood. He shares what is happening with reader data, and why it is happening. I wish more writers here were as curious about how to improve their Substacks at such a behavioral level. Thanks to Jenny for sharing Finn’s story.

Thanks, Mack!

Finn is one of those rare people you don’t often come across in online writing. I don’t expect everyone to drill down to his level, but we can all learn from what he did and how he got there.

Really appreciate your restack!
