Why Are Tiers Priced They Way They Are? (Patreon)
Content
Howdy ladies and gents,
So since my announcement about going full time with Patreon and Youtube for my own sanity and to prevent the burn out from having two jobs, I have received several messages about changing my tiers, putting things into higher tiers and getting rid lower tiers.
These messages were sent because some Patrons want to see me grow and be able to sustain a full-time Content Creator schedule without the pressure and stress of not having my other income coming in.
As much as I appreciate those messages and knowing that some of you would be willing to pay more for my Full Reactions it is not something I would need to do or be comfortable doing.
When I created the tiers the way I did it was because I wanted to make sure that if you liked my stuff you could get it for as low as I possibly could but still make myself living off of the things I do someday.
I know some have said that other reactors put all full reactions behind the $10 tiers and that I could do the same and many would be ok with it.
Again I appreciate that level of support but I really want to make sure that I am giving the value that I feel is right.
A lot of the other reaction channels that do that are ones that have multiple people doing reactions as well as some even having large groups. So they need more money to pay for everyone.
So my Patreon income does not have to be what those other channels would need. I just pay for an editor which isn't even really a real editor because it's my Mom. (I taught my mom how to do simple edits for me so that I could help her out financially but not make her feel less than and her thinking it's just a handout, my mom has a lot of pride and is very stubborn about accepting help, she does not like to ask for help so I had to figure out a way to give her money and help her but also make her feel like she is earning it.). Which is why I actually still have to take time to look over the stuff she does and fix things.
I truly do love you all and you have made me love what I do. But the format for the tiers will for the most part always be like this.
There will be some small changes happening next month to the $1 tiers to make them all seem fair, everything else will be staying the same. Next month we will be adding a Movie Night once a week($10 Tier) and getting the anime back on track(Hopefully).
$10 Patrons will still get early access to new shows and eventually I will give them early access to any extra episodes I do weekly of other shows that are a part of the $5 tier. I am someone who has grown up knowing the value of a dollar and I want to deliver everything I can.
I also know I have gotten behind in the past with Pilot Programs and Series Reactions but I hope that it all changes and gets better moving forward with this being my Full-Time Job.
Thanks for reading. I know some of you don't care about things like this but I figured since over the last two weeks I have had several different supporters message me about it I would just make a post to give everyone my mindset on it.
