Using Substack to Do More Together

We use the Substack platform as our major communication platform and for building our networks. Come along this Sunday to find out how it works for us and our groups.

This Sunday, 18th May 2025, we are joining in with the

ACF Community Brisbane Northside

group’s Community Conversation about how we use the Internet for communication and for building the networks needed to do more together.

As the Internet evolves, social media like Facebook and Instagram is becoming less effective for reaching a wide audience. More and more people refuse to use them. LinkedIn has a narrow audience. These platforms are all based on serving their advertisers and you are their product. It’s time for a new business model, and Substack is providing one.

We use Substack as our main communication platform. If you are reading this as an email, it has come from the Regen Brisbane Substack. If you click through to read, like, or comment, that will take you to the web version on Substack. And you can choose to read and comment through the Substack app on your phone.

We will have a short presentation using the big screen, and Q&A. Bring your phones, and laptops. Afternoon tea provided. RSVPs essential.

Where: Bracken Ridge Library
When: 3pm-5pm, Sunday 18 May 2025
