a new vampire character? on phasmid asmr??? it's more likely than you think!
patrons, i'd love your opinion on the call-to-action in the middle of this version (at 11:35) of this audio! this is targeted not at you, but at my listeners on youtube. is it too pushy? does it break your immersion too much? or is it okay? i added it where there was already a natural break in the audio, as i've been having a lot of trouble getting my work seen at the moment and want to try new things to get back in the old algorithm's good books, but i do worry this might turn people off. let me know what you think!
there'll be one of my famous spicy conclusions to this next week. tomorrow, i'm eating canned ravioli on camera for your pleasure and my pain.
love,
phas 💖

2024-07-17 07:18:16 +0000 UTCAgree! I prefer at the end or beginning, and Jim5 does in-character CTA so well!

2024-07-16 16:55:28 +0000 UTCI absolutely adore this character. I love the premise and plot as well!

2024-07-16 13:37:53 +0000 UTCBold of you to tag a vampire story as realism! Also, please more of this character. Thank you. :)

2024-07-15 01:26:08 +0000 UTCJim5ASMR did the CTA in the front in character and I nearly didn't hear it as such.

2024-07-14 07:36:11 +0000 UTCI don’t think that the call to action is too harsh or pushy—fans want to see you keep producing content. I might suggest speaking just a little slower so as not to startle the listener or sound too much like a list of side effects on a drug commercial. Slow down, connect to the listener more intimately since this is now you—not a character role play. The listener will interpret the call to action more as a conversation and be more likely to take an interest in you as a creator. Just my opinion! I hope you get your numbers up!

2024-07-14 05:46:45 +0000 UTC*insert Butterfly meme here* Is this Interview with a Vampire?

2024-07-14 04:35:44 +0000 UTCOoh, a new vampire. He seems like he's got the whole business down to a science.

2024-07-14 04:13:20 +0000 UTCbtw i didn’t mind the cta where it was, didn’t break immersion for me. I suspect it might go down better at the start rather than in the middle but that’s just a hunch. Much love ❤️

2024-07-14 03:10:44 +0000 UTCI can’t believe you’ve blessed us with a new vampire ❤️ I’m almost getting a BG3 Raphael kind of vibe from the voice. I love that the first thing he appreciated was being polite to the waiter 😂 very nice thank you Phas and Audrey, excited to see where this storyline goes!
Lady_Areleth
2024-07-14 03:07:18 +0000 UTCThis is what I thought, too, so suggestion seconded!

2024-07-14 00:27:15 +0000 UTCin character? interesting! do you mind dropping the name of the channel?
Phasmid ASMR
2024-07-13 23:55:51 +0000 UTCConsider doing the cta at the end, in character? I frequent another channel that does this and it's effective. Just a thought. Well done as usual to all artists involved x

2024-07-13 22:50:51 +0000 UTCI listened to both versions. Obviously you’re not going to please everyone by including the CTA in the Youtube version - is there a skilful way to do it up front before immersion so that doesn’t get interrupted? However it didn’t bother me too much because it wasn’t a loud and jarring voice bouncing into the audio like Youtube adverts. As for your new vamp character - I enjoyed it and I’m intrigued to see where this goes next! Well done Audrey and Phas 🍷🍷🍷

2024-07-13 22:07:11 +0000 UTCUnderstandable, I would personally not be too bothered if it was at the start (despite the fact that I only listen to you on Patreon anyway 😅), but that is a real concern. I think just testing the CTA placement is a good way of handling it for now! Also, I really hope the algorithm stops being such a pain in the ass for you. It's a shame, you clearly put in a lot of work into your audios and you truly deserve to reach more people.

2024-07-13 22:01:32 +0000 UTCNew 2025 goal: get Phas a team of support staff to ease his work load. XD
TaffyCreature
2024-07-13 21:55:16 +0000 UTChonestly, i would totally hire someone to do all my marketing and such for me if i could afford it. i HATE doing marketing, and i'm not very good at it, it just doesn't come naturally to me.
Phasmid ASMR
2024-07-13 21:54:05 +0000 UTC(Forgive the thread) Perhaps you need a marketing and social media team to help distribute your videos. XD (This is a joke, you do Very well as is)
TaffyCreature
2024-07-13 21:53:02 +0000 UTCmm okay, thank you for that. breaking people's immersion is what i was most worried about - but i also worry that if i put it right at the start, a lot of people would turn off before the audio even got started. tricky! i could put it right at the end, but then, also, i imagine people would just click away when the actual role-play was done. i'll leave it in the middle for this one and see if a lot of people stop listening at that point, i think. all a bit of an experiment, this.
Phasmid ASMR
2024-07-13 21:48:11 +0000 UTCi'll think about it! i fear my patrons are already the people who are most inclined to support me, and asking them to support me more would be like preaching to the choir, you know what i mean? but perhaps!
Phasmid ASMR
2024-07-13 21:46:15 +0000 UTCI grabbed my ear buds so fast and nestled into bed like a little gremlin when I saw there was a new audio. I'm really enjoying this character! Best job interview I've ever had. Regarding the CTA, I honestly think it's breaking the immersion too much, if it's placed in the middle of the audio. Is putting it right at the start an option? Unrelated, but the way you softly speak/whisper during the CTA is so pleasant, I wouldn't mind an entire audio like that lol.

2024-07-13 21:29:36 +0000 UTCSomehow this kind of fell flat for me. Maybe my monogamous brain just could get into the whole escort service thing. I'm still kind of accepting the fact that our dear satyr is likey not monogamous. I can't help it, I'm greedy that way.

Eden Rose
2024-07-13 19:56:46 +0000 UTCPerhaps (and I know this would be more work for you) but do a ramble style call-to-action post for pat if you feel as though you need the extra support? I know for fact your Pats would jump at the chance to help out (Not me going to listen and like some of my favourite audios on YT as soon as I finished this). I know there’s many, myself included, who like the rant audios. Like the too-hot-duvet audio or the theatre part one. Just a thought. Much love <3

2024-07-13 19:21:59 +0000 UTCok i have a secret to admit i secretly enjoy it

2024-07-13 18:47:21 +0000 UTCPhas you’re loved, you’re appreciated, you dont have to keep eating canned pastas for our amusement it’s ok

2024-07-13 18:01:21 +0000 UTCI'm eleven minutes in and I like this character. He's a true gentleman.
BramShelley
2024-07-13 17:59:23 +0000 UTCNgl the little break had me laughing because it felt like a Deadpool 4th wall breaking moment with you slipping into and out of character at the drop of a hat. I think it's fine, but I'm also not the type to get bothered by these types of things, so consider this a grain of salt
keiraide
2024-07-13 17:50:33 +0000 UTCyou know what, the patreon version probably shouldn't have it at all, on second thought. it didn't occur to me that the patreon version could be different than the youtube version. i'm going to remove it! edit: ok, the patreon version no longer has the call-to-action, and i've uploaded that to Whyp instead for feedback. this is much better, i think!
Phasmid ASMR
2024-07-13 17:41:10 +0000 UTCWe LOVE a saucy vampire! Ugh, the colour of your voice in this one is quite nice. As for the break: Mildly disengaging, a bit jarring for my case because I wasn’t paying attention but it wasn’t awful. Would I personally have preferred it without, yes. Do I truly care that it’s there, No. all in all it wasn’t that intrusive, if anything a bit funny. (For me on Pat and not YT. It would make 1000% more sense there, but I wouldn’t ask you to make two versions of the exact same audio.)
