Hey everyone,
One awesome aspect of Patreon is that nothing is set in stone. I can and have made adjustments to the tiers. On my end I'm focusing on making artwork and rewarding you guys with at least the token of that artwork. That's just the basics. I've been able to add many options. Some were based on your fantastic ideas.
We can grow this! There are more folks out there just like you guys. Maybe what's offered just isn't hitting the sweet spot for some folks. And I'd love to find out what I can do to improve your rewards and your experience.
Patreon is also working on things to make your experience better as well. And there are some things that I'm looking forward to. Such as Milestone tracking. I soon hope to be able to track milestones so I can reward those that have maybe reached a length of time being a patron or a dollar amount. Just a little extra something for your patronage.
Next year an exclusive item that new patrons will get for their first month of being a patron will be added. Never fear, it will include all patrons the month I implement the item.
When thinking of ideas I'd also like you to consider shipping on my end. I try to keep my shipping expense to a minimum. It costs about 20% of the wave totals. I try to design tiers to work around hitting 1-2 ounces of postage for the lower tiers and 3-4 ounces in the higher tiers. We've seen before that packages overseas start around $15.
Are there things I just haven't thought of that as a player and fan you'd love to have access to? Hi-res final image? Maybe a print at home PDF of the token? More videos? A studio walk through? A library tour ( I hear that's a thing now)? Move the full art to the back of the token? More boosters? More alternates? 5x7 metal prints? I can create a group on Reddit now too, is that something you guys want?
You are also always welcome to contact me about add-ons and cover those costs via PayPal if you wanted items in other tiers.
Please send your ideas on how I can enrich your experience, keep me painting more for you, and entice your community here to grow.
