Content Poll [Multiple option]
Added 2019-06-05 19:05:17 +0000 UTCHello everyone! I'm posting this poll in hopes of sparking a conversation in our small (for now) community about the type of content / posting methods either you'd like to see, or are just general good patreon practices. Alternatively, what is the type of content that is generally seen attractive by patrons? Being pretty new to that, I've much to learn, and I hope some of you would be able to pitch in and help me out.
As it stands, my time is a bit limited and I am uncertain when I will be able to commit fully to patreon - for the time being I still have to rely on commissions or whatever other jobs I can get. However, I will stick to the schedule I posted earlier (3-4 pics per month, one of which gets multiple variants), and I would like to think ahead in terms of what content to offer and get the patreon community growing in the future. I'm starting out small - but my dream is to make it work down the line.
The poll is mostly a pretense to have a talk on the matter. I would be glad for any input you might have - maybe some of it based on your experiences from other creator Patreon pages. Looking forward to your thoughts!

Yup, I was hesitant about adding that option even. I suppose I was under the impression of some raffles and sketches that came out of them to be cool and of good quality, leading me to believe the artist had fun (BBC Chan to be exact). But when you do that every day for a whole month, you're gonna burn out in no time. Also I don't really feel like selling commissions via patreon, it doesn't feel like a place for that - ordinary transactions and private discussions about them would be the way to go for me, as it has always been. Thank you for the input, I really needed a voice from someone with some patreon experience. :)

Unless it's a sketch you can knock out in a day without feeling like time is being wasted and pushing your other art behind. I was part of Wreckshop's patreon for a year at the raffle slot when no one else was in it. Long story short: it was a mess and he hated it! Was in Mr. NDC's commission tier for a while, less brutal but similar breakdown of delays, apologies, and artist feeling super depressed. I don't bother with those kinds of patreon tiers anymore, keep your comms open to the pub and leave the give-aways for special occasions or something.)
