WELCOME TO THE SOCIAL MEDIA ESCAPE CLUB
◼️ Quitting social media is scary, so start your adventure with other creative folks on the same journey.
I’m Seth Werkheiser. I help creative folks leave social media.
◼️ Free subscribers get all this:
My Monday and Friday email newsletters are always free.
Interviews with Substack Bestsellers like Cody Cook-Parrot and Ryan J. Downey (and other very smart creative people)!
Video Drops (where I answer questions to benefit the community)
◼️ Paid subscribers support each other in the escape from social media:
I lead a weekly discussion on Zoom with our paid subscriber community.
Whether you’ve run a small business, or you’re in a band, or you just want to look at your phone less, you’ll probably walk away with 2-to 3 good ideas, concepts, and/or strategies that you can apply to your work.
Along with these weekly calls, paid subscribers also get a 15 minute 1:1 call with me, plus access to my asynchronous book club.
“I’ve spent the better part of two weeks trying to drill down on what that intention might be and finally found it just a couple of days ago in conversation with my friend Seth Werkheiser. Btw, Seth is a fellow substacker who is as spectacular as he is insightful,” Nina from Flora & Forage.
◼️WHO IS SETH WERKHEISER?
◼️ I got my start in all this as a music blogger back in 2001.

◼️ These days I do D2C email operations for Grammy Award-winning MNRK Heavy: home to bands like High On Fire, Underoath, Creeping Death, Rolo Tomassi, The Callous Daoboys, Crowbar, and tons more.
◼️ I sent D2C emails for Death Row Records in 2021 (before it got sold to Snoop Dog) and individual band campaigns for Holdtight PR in mid-2022.
◼️ Started Skull Toaster in 2011 and posted 2000+ metal trivia questions on Twitter.
◼️ I co-founded Metal Bandcamp Gift Club which has helped independent bands sell 1000s of albums since 2016 (read my interview with Bandcamp).
