WORK WITH a Digital Marketing Pro
I Can Help You One-On-One
Hi, Iโm Julianne “Jules” Buonocore, the founder of Friday Night Readers.
I worked as a lawyer for 15+ years, and I have run a leading book blog since 2019 (full-time since 2022). Highlights include up to 800,000+ blog views per month through search engine optizimation; “Pro” status with my ad network (approximately the top 10%); thousands of products sold via affiliate links each month; ~20,000 warm email subscribers in my bestselling book club; and over six figures in sales for brand sponsors.
I’m a lifelong learner and a curious deep diver with high-level knowledge on so many aspects of these fields that sometimes it even surprises me! With a solid plan from a seasoned expert who’s “been there, done that,” you, too, can grow your platforms beyond your dreams.

COACHING | CONSULTING | SUBSTACK MANAGEMENT
One-on-One Support Is an Investment.
One-on-one support is for those who are serious about working hard and consistently on their business and understand the value of direct contact with a seasoned pro. I can take you further, faster, and more cost-effectively than you can on your own. Why? I bring years of priceless education, experience, expertise, connections, and recommendations that are hard to obtain for free or at low cost. I’m also skilled at pinpointing what’s holding you back and developing bespoke strategies for you.

Coaching is for those who want a focused, one-hour Q&A session to get clear, actionable answers to specific questions.
Ask me anything about digital marketing and/or online business! Via videoconference, I will answer your questions on topics ranging from how I set up my business and website to search engine optimization, Substack, clarifying your goals and strategies, monetization, product sales, diversification, branding, public relations, email marketing, social media, and recommended resources.
Your time is money, and I will do my best to save both for you by guiding you in the right direction more quickly, with greater clarity, and an arsenal of resources!


Long-Term Consulting (Including Substack Audits)
$500 For Every 3 Hours ($167 per hour)
Consulting is for those who want deeper, longer sessions and follow-ups to brainstorm, plan, review, and refine their business strategy together.
This includes Substack audits, in which I dive deep on everything from your branding and positioning to content, monetization strategy, and beyond.
I’m also open to companies seeking to partner more closely with highly seasoned creators who can deliver unique business value in “fractional” roles.
Generally speaking, consulting involves ideating and planning business strategies with you, answering your questions, and refining our approach over time. This can include calls, emails, audits, reviews, etc.
It does not include implementation, which can generally be done more cost-effectively by you, your team, or freelancers; however, I am open to discussing my involvement in the implementation processes.
Full Substack Management
MONTHLY SUBSTACK MANAGEMENT (ONly 1-2 Spots open)
I help brands turn Substack into an owned media channel that builds audience, authority, and loyalty.
Substack is not just another email platform. It functions more like social media or community platforms. It also offers discovery, both on the platform and through search engines, as well as trust built through networking and collaborations.
For these reasons, basic content packages are just not enough to drive meaningful growth. You need a comprehensive Substack strategist.
I fully branded and built my own bestselling Substack, Friday Night Readers, with over 18,000+ subscribers. Many of my email newsletters also rank on the first page of Google and continue to drive tens of thousands of views.
In month one, I develop your Substack strategy, including positioning, content themes, editorial cadence, and growth opportunities. Then, I execute that strategy by producing posts and notes, managing community engagement, monitoring analytics, and continuously refining the approach.
The result? A consistent editorial presence, deeper audience connection, and a smarter long-term growth engine for your brand.
