Reward Setup (Test 3) (Patreon)
Content
Soooo I've been thinking a little bit about the $5 tier and while the reception to the giveaway/raffle idea was very good, a couple of ya did bring of some good points regarding it! Specifically, Patreon's rules regarding them here. While my initial idea was to just regulate them to Discord I've thought more on it and I think it might not be a good idea, so I'm scrapping it. SO! Here's another tweak to the rewards
- Tier 1 ($1): Support Tier | Voting access and Early Access to WIPs, sketches, and art exclusive to Patreon | Discord access |
- Tier 2: ($10): Art Reward (every 4 months) Derpi-Doodle or Pen-10-Min sketch| Commission early reservation access | 10% off all commissions |10 slots available
- Tier 3: ($35): Art rewards (every 2 months) available: Icons, Chibis, fullbody sketches, "Little Adventurer" 1-off designs, Expression sheet (4 expressions) | 15% off all commissions | 5 slots available
- Tier 4: ($50): Art Rewards available (every 2 months): Character Island, Character roughout, Character Design (moodboard based), 1 comic page (sketched) | 20% off all commissions | 5 slots available
The changes here include a lower indefinite discount for each tier and the total deletion of the $5 tier.
Reasoning behind the drop in discount is because they are intended to be stackable with repeat client discounts, so I wanted to reduce the amount they'd take off. This way, even without the stack, folks could get a good chunk off my commissions without me handicapping myself.
As for the possible nuke on the $5 tier, it's mostly because I honestly can't think of anything else within Patreon's rules that'd be worth it. It also doesn't really offer much that'd warrant the increase I don't think. If I rid of the $5 tier I could instead make the $10 tier give a tiny bit more in way of giving supporters of the tier another option of art reward to choose from, as well as maybe increase the amount to 15 slots instead of my initial 10 as compromise?
The only thing I can think of in keeping the $5 tier in tact is like... maybe a yearly art reward? The reward itself will still remain small, prob no more than a headshot sketch since this tier wouldn't be limited, but it could be like a thank-you for remaining pledged for the entirety of the year?? I dunno; any suggestions is greatly appreciated! ;w;
