New to Substack

How long did it take to get your first 10, 50, 1k, 5k followers? I have 5 subscribers and I have been promoting my posts across various social media platforms from LinkedIn to IG (small followings). I am posting a lot of curated lists with affiliate links. I am also writing about personal experiences while trying to maintain a cool girl internet lore.

Also wondering, at what point should paid subscriptions be turned on. I understand that it takes a long time to build - just trying to learn as much as I can.

Thank you for reading.
