Substack says that active chat participants are 12% more likely to subscribe. It's a self-selecting group: people who are interested enough to sign up and build a relationship with you. That's why email subscribers are also more likely to donate or pay.
You don't need Substack. If people are interested in your community, they will also sign up on your own website. The key is to give them the opportunity to take an action to deepen your relationship with them, and for you to reach them directly.
