What Does #Ad Mean on RKG?
Added 2019-09-03 14:00:14 +0000 UTCIn the next month, we’ve got a couple of projects coming up where you’ll see #Ad on some of our posts.
What does this mean?
Well, in one sense, it’s a legal requirement, a way of disclosing that we’ve been paid for the work we’re promoting.
But more importantly what does it mean in the context of RKG?
As this is the first time we’ve ever done something like this, we wanted to be completely transparent with you guys about what it means for us and why we’re doing it at all.
Since we launched in January, we’ve had several offers to do this type of work. But we’ve turned them down because they weren’t right for us – either we weren’t into the project in question or we didn’t feel like it would produce a video we’d want to be a part of
The RKG Patreon gives us financial independence to say ‘no’ to opportunities that aren’t right.
We’ve said ‘yes’ to these upcoming projects because…
- We think they’re fun.
- We like the thing they’re about.
- They present us with unique opportunities we wouldn’t haven’t access to otherwise.
That’s the only reason we’ll ever agree to stuff like this, not the money.
#Ad means we are being paid for our time, and we’re going to invest that money in growing RKG. Our priority remains the same as ever: make the best original content for you, and if you’re a Patron, giving you more value for your pledge.
If you have any questions, pop them down below and we’ll answer them as best as we can.

2019-09-04 06:45:24 +0000 UTCThis is amazing! I actually just joined Patreon so I could support you guys. I'm ecstatic that I can be a part of this community and support content creators that are so transparent and loyal to their fans. And I agree with everyone here--take all the sponsorships you need. We're all here to watch you guys succeed!

2019-09-03 23:35:58 +0000 UTCNice, guys. Thanks for the transparency, and by all means, take all of the sponsored content you can. I mean, don’t let it get in the way of your original stuff, but I like to see the boys getting paid when they can.
2019-09-03 22:49:32 +0000 UTCWow a "company" that are transparent with their "customers". Once again you lads are doing a bang up job and I personally am honoured to be a patron of suck a kick ass community
