50 calls for journalism/writing pitches (June 26, 2023)
I have just switched on Substack’s affiliate scheme of sorts, where you can encourage your friends, colleagues, fave supermarket checkout guy and maybe even your enemies to sign up for my newsletter, in return for a free month (or six) of the paid version.
Share the link below with people you think may be interested, and watch those free subscription months roll in.
5 referrals = 1 month free
12 referrals = 3 months free
25 referrals = 6 months free
