Possible tier price changes. Work with me on this!
Added 2019-07-13 13:46:55 +0000 UTCI've been considering this for a while, but I don't think I can sustain this business model anymore.
Going back to my previous post earlier, I was talking about burnout and feeling fairly low. This was my fault. But it's also a fear of being a burden on my friends who have graciously let me continue to share a room in their house.
Just in case you were wondering: no, I will not be putting this into place now. I will wait until the end of this month, if I do choose to go through with this. Everything will still be made public to DeviantArt eventually.
For this reason, I'm going to be shuffling prices.
Here's my thought process:
- $1 [Deckhand]: You still get everything you received before. There are no changes.
- $5 [Navigator]: You still get mostly everything you received before, but you no longer get the 3rd animation. Requests and loyalty rewards are still the same, and you still get a commission discount.
- $10 [Quartermaster]: You get everything the other tier gets, but you also get access to the 3rd animation released on the 28th.
- $25 [First Mate]: You get everything the other tier gets, but you also get a guaranteed fully made drawing every month. You also get access to a post where I break down the current animation, show the debug version I work with, and explain my thought process. There's not much I can offer in this tier, so it's only for die-hard fans or anyone who wants to show more support.
In addition, I was thinking of making the main 3rd animation be on a 2 month delay, but I'm unsure.
So that's the thoughts I'm having currently.
I want your input on these changes.
I know in a perfect world I'd continue to offer these for $5, but I'm looking at bills that put me end to end every month, and I'm still living here because I'm paying some specific bills.
I'm not trying to be a money-grabbing whore, and I'm not trying to alienate you guys.
Work with me on this, let me know what you'd be willing to pay for my animations, what you consider fair for $1/5/10/25 a month, and what you're okay with me locking behind other tiers.
I want your input so you end up with a system everyone is happy with.
If you guys are entirely unsatisfied with any changes I've proposed, and you'd rather I not mess with it, I can keep everything the same as it is now. This is NOT a permanent change yet!
