Why is Greg’s dad worried about Substack and how can he get started?

Chris Cote 0:00
Chris, I'm concerned about your father and his next steps here uh over the next week because he's asking me very basic questions about Substack and he's about to jump off of a cliff a little bit. And I'm just concerned that he hasn't paid the proper attention to the details of business that are required so that he may provide a playground for you and Yeti to continue making money in the future off of his business. I don't think he's quite prepared for the modern age. Have you noticed any of this in the shadows? Because I've been pushing him on you gotta be meticulous and you gotta do special things. things and what he says is why don't you write something for my substack?
Tony Hinchcliffe 0:42
I've noticed he's got a lot of thoughts but not a lot of action. He doesn't really he like Yeti. Hey he's got a meeting with in terms of getting his podcast and he's just like, Yeti, take care of this. We got this meeting on Friday. We good to go on that?
Trysta Krick 0:55
He's a delegator.
Tony Hinchcliffe 0:56
I am a delegator.
Trysta Krick 0:58
That's well all the best minds, they know how to delegate. All the laziest as well.
Greg Zaslow 1:03
No, you gotta delegate.
Danny Parkins 1:04
Greg, if you need help on Substack, I can help you. I have a Substack actually knew something out right now. Ten days at substack dot com.
Chris Cote 1:10
Tony Tony can write, says Tony can write. Tony's a good Tony's a good writer. Thank you, Dan. I appreciate that.
Danny Parkins 1:16
Anyways, Greg, me and you can offline fifty fifty split.
Greg Zaslow 1:19
What does that mean?
Trysta Krick 1:20
That means that uh all of your work, Tony's gonna get half of.
Greg Zaslow 1:23
Do you charge money on Substack? Are you this is
Chris Cote 1:27
what I'm saying? Oh boy. This is what I'm saying. This is this is the Greg, we need to meet. He's about to jump off a cliff and he's got no parachute. And he's like, get it, get me a parachute while he's on the way down.
Trysta Krick 1:36
Yeah, it it you c it costs money. That's the whole point of it. It
Greg Zaslow 1:39
costs me money to be on your own. Oh my lord. It's free for you, boy.
Trysta Krick 1:43
No, no,
Danny Parkins 1:44
listen to me, Greg. What is Substack? Don't worry about it. You don't do much of it. Listen, what you do is very simple. You get on it, it's free for you, but you can charge other people basically up behind a paywall to see what you write. Okay. So you make some money on that. How do
Chris Cote 1:56
you not know what you're about to embark on? It's like cameo, but
Danny Parkins 2:00
instead of making
Greg Zaslow 2:01
videos, you write stuff.
Trysta Krick 2:02
It's like the early days of the Miami Herald, probably.
Greg Zaslow 2:05
Right. Except there was no paywall then.
Trysta Krick 2:07
But it was paper to your door, but you had to pay for the paper to your door. It's the or it's like the new age landing on the lawn.
Greg Zaslow 2:13
Right.
Trysta Krick 2:13
Sometimes it's seven ninety nine a month, sometimes six ninety nine a month. Sometimes people package writers together. Jake Fisher, who's an NBA insider, another Mark Stein, another NBA insider. They put their powers together like Avengers, nine ninety nine a month, or you can pay for a year in advance fifty dollars a year.
Greg Zaslow 2:30
Like a bundle. One thing I'll never do is end anything in a ninety nine. I hate that about gas prices. Why can't I just pay four dollars a gallon or five dollars a gallon? Nah. Nine ninety nine just feels
Tony Hinchcliffe 2:43
so much. It's a marketing tricky ten dollars. No,
Greg Zaslow 2:46
but it's d it it's it it's not a trick that fools me. I don't like that. But I'll look into this pricing thing. Part of me wants to just give away my writing. Where are you gonna look? I don't know. I'm gonna talk to Tony. He's my new expert. Thank you. My substack editor. Do you see why I'm concerned? What are you thinking? Double what Tony charges? I don't know what he charges.
Tony Hinchcliffe 3:04
I charge zero. Mine's free.
Chris Cote 3:06
There you go. Look at I'm sitting here begging the audience to support the Cody things, support his uh podcast. Like you should see what Zaz's podcast has become because he's put a bit of effort into just making it a little more special than it used to be. Zaz's podcast is exploding, and Greg just wants all the work done for him. And I really want uh our listeners to support. YouTube channel and support uh the Greg Cody show featuring Greg Cody the podcast and I want it to be made more popular, but there's no way for us to get this substack working the way your dad is presently doing things where he doesn't know anything about what he's doing.
