Book Kickstarter Rewards (Patreon)

Hi gang. I'm back with another behind-the-scenes Kickstarter update and this time I'm coming to you for your valuable opinions. First of all, look at that god damn book render. Isn't that baby sexy as hell?

Anyway, so we have all of the reward tiers figured out for the campaign, except for one. The book itself is $30, which also includes a PDF version and a digital thank you card. The book is hardcover and over 200 pages long.

The next reward includes the book, failure stickers, and failure greeting cards. I've shown those off in previous patreon posts. You get all of that for $55.

For $100, I'll sign your book AND your name will appear in the book. You also get the stickers and cards.

My publisher really wants a reward between $55 and $100, at around $75. So far the front runner has been a replica trophy of the one Gabe is holding on the cover.

The words "LAST PLACE" will be etched across the trophy and a fancy sticker will be stuck to the base with some made up tournament or competition. "Lifetime Achievement" or something like that. The idea of having a fancy little trophy that says "LAST PLACE" on it is hilarious to me, but I have no idea if it's worth the extra $20 to people who aren't insane like me. The best alternative to this trophy we have so far is a fancy coffee mug that says "#1 Loser" on it. I also have no idea if that's a good value proposition. I also don't know if we need this reward tier at all.

Hence, I'm coming to for your sage wisdom, patrons. What are your thoughts on the Last Place Trophy? Is it something you want? Is it something you might pay an extra $20 for? Does the coffee mug sound like a better idea? Is there something else you think would be a fun reward for that price range? Should we scratch the tier entirely? Am I asking too many questions? (yes)

Thank you in advance for cracking this conundrum. Also... that book render... MMPH

Love you,

JL
