CAMBRIDGE, UK, September 09, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Substack Growth Mastermind, a weekly live program, invites creators to grow their newsletters interactively. Hosted by Amy Chang and John Toomey, the program aims to make the experience more engaging and productive for participants. Each session offers a unique opportunity for attendees to collaborate and build their newsletters through various interactive activities.
During every weekly show, the latest SuperStacker Prizes are announced, recognizing the best Notes, Articles, Comments, and Restacks from the previous week. This encourages creators to improve their performance and contribute quality content. Participants are also encouraged to submit their own Notes, which are then liked, commented on, and restacked by the audience. These interactions lead to lively discussions and foster a sense of community among creators.
One of the key features of the program is the group mind mapping session using Ayoa.com. A Note submitted by an audience member serves as the central topic, and everyone in the chat can contribute to the mind map. The final mind map is then posted on the program's social media and website. Additionally, some of the most insightful contributions can earn a Hero Award, and they are added to a draft press release to be referenced by news publications.
The hosts also conduct mini-audits of participants' Substack publications, identifying areas for growth. Occasionally, Substack Superstars are invited as guests, and their evocative sentences are used as AI prompts for the group mind maps.
Substack Growth Mastermind aims to incubate and nurture other writers who want to create their own similar live programs. According to Chang, "Live video is the best way to get a potential audience to know, like, and trust you. And the way we do it makes it fun. So we want to support as many people as possible to conduct these types of shows for their own subscribers and clients."
Future plans include a weekly challenge to help participants build significant growth before the next week's program, with their achievements celebrated during the session. Additionally, a SuperStacker prize will be offered to creators who help another writer reach Bestseller status.
