Patreon Rewards (Patreon)

The HJ crew has been discussing how we can add more perks for patreons without stretching our already "too little butter over too much toast" to-do list each week. We came up with tying our amazing Patreons into our planned indie-designer spotlight on the podcast and our robust community of TTRPG designers.   

1) We'd have a "Indie Designer of the Month" that we mention at the end of each advice show episode. Depending on the designer and the price of their games, Patreons would get free copies of one of their games or we'd select a few to get free copies. (Patreon as a platform does not allow "raffles" or other rewards that are based on chance... so we'd have to get a little creative with this.)

2) Patreons would get access to an article including an extended interview with that designer.  

3) We'd create a point of contact (maybe discord? maybe somewhere else?) where HJ designers and our extended circle of designer family would reach out to Patreons for first-refusal of spots in playtests of new ttrpgs.

I'd love feedback and thoughts on this? Is this something that would interest you?

How is "raffles" forbidden? Is there a way to base it on first three posts here or something?

According to their rules, if it's completely based on chance and only available to Patreons it could be a form of gambling. That would open up a bunch of legal issues for Patreon. There are some work arounds that are allowed. I'm going to think about those and see which option is best.

Firstly, while I personally would likely not take part in those things, I think they are all worthwhile ideas which may well help boost Patreon numbers. Secondly, while it may be less appealing to you, I think you should mention that the show has a Patreon as part of the opening notes. I don’t know how long Stu had it going before I heard it mentioned and became a Patron. Thirdly, do you still have the Amazon wishlist? That would also be worth mentioning (either on the show or on Discord).

Good note about mentioning the patreon. We don't want to grow it huge, but it's helpful to have new incoming people fairly regularly. We don't have a standing wish list. We just made one for the studio project since it was a huge cost all at once. Thanks to all of you, we generally can afford to replace or do small upgrades occasionally.
