❗️REWARDS INFO: Price increase after SEP 25TH for NEW members joining (Patreon)

Hi all!

Long post! See details below for

🟢 Important reminder for rewards: don't forget to fill in the order form!

🟡 Future rewards price change for NEW members joining (existing members remain unchanged)

🔵 Survey Feedback: Prints of more monthly art pieces (and general thanks!)

🟢 Reminder for anyone already in a reward tier

‼️In order to receive a monthly reward, you need to submit an order via the Google form! If you have months where you didn't submit an order, you can make a note in the form and retroactively choose a reward for any month you missed.

I ship out rewards based on what each person chooses in the form and don't choose for you!

The Google Order form as well as the FAQ are always linked in all the "rewards shipped" post and also in the pinned post.

I know of at least one person where the process wasn't clear enough. I'll adapt the relevant sections (About, tier description, etc) so this will be more clear in the future.

🟡 Reward Tier Price Change for NEW members

I've posted in late August that the current pricing of the rewards don't cover the full rewards cost, so the two rewards tiers will be increased starting September 25th for new members joining the tiers:

‼️Sticker&Print Club: 8 US$ (old) --> 11 US$ (new)‼️Sticker&Print Club VIP: 11 US$ (old) --> 13 US$ (new)

➡️ The price will stay THE SAME for current members! If you're already in one of those tiers, the changes won't affect you.➡️ The price of the art connaisseur (5$) tier remains UNCHANGED as well.

By now I figured out what went wrong with my initial calculation: I didn't include all the fees (Patreon, Paypal, currency exchange, etc. adds up to a total of roughly 25% off any tier price on my end), so the current prices are keeping me in the red.

It'd be nice to break even and get at least a little compensation out of it. With the new prices everything is covered and I make roughly 1 - 2 $ out of it (so not much but at least not negative :) ).

As a second option, I considered getting other, more generic paper, but I'm a big fan of the current luster paper because it just looks great and fancy. Luster paper has this slightly rough texture. It's not easy taking a photo, but you can see it around the top part of these examples:

You can still join the tiers with the current pricing until the 25th. I didn't want to secretly change the pricing without a transition period. I also don't mind being slightly in the red with rewards, but in the long run, I'd prefer everything being fully covered.

🔵 Survey Feedback

As you've probably seen already, I've sent out the welcome survey retroactively to older patrons.

The subject of my art will remain what interests me, just as it is now. But anything surrounding that can be very flexibly adapted to what people are interested in. Understanding that, plus who you all are and where you come from was the reason why I started the survey :)

Thank you very much for anyone who has already responded! Some of you left incredibly kind words. Also the info I got is already very interesting.

Two specific responses:

I'll set up prints for any monthly art that is not yet included until next week's "rewards shipped" post (Thank you specifically to whoever gave this feedback 💛)

Mercy will be in a card of the minor Arcana. So yes, she'll be included but it'll be a while until you see her :) (She didn't fit into the major unfortunately.)

And that's it! Long text post...

Hope you're all having a great week! 💛 I'll be back with the process post for the last monthly art (while I still work on the Kinktober prompts !).
