It's a really good question. And I actually agree - we DO know already! This stuff is all transferable, as I've been shouting about in relation to Instagram for years. The fastest way to become a success on Instagram is to toil away for years on blogs beforehand lol.

It's actually this that drove me and Keeley to write the Substack Soiree - a whole conversation we had back in January about the freedom people feel to just write and share over here, and the horrible danger that we might accidentally take it away from ourselves again.

In the end, good writing and good businesses are always responsive to their audiences, but as Jen says - that doesn't mean we have to be audience-led.
