[Announcement] Tier prices update and possible new tier
🕑 Added 2021-11-11 23:58:26 +0000 UTCHello again everyone!
1st of all I want to thank again each and every one of you who choose to share a little bit of your well earned money to me as a way of supporting my work, and that is something I genuinely appreciate!
However, during the last two months I've been running some diagnostics on the time spent on each reward and the price to which each one is set at. That is, actively measuring the time and effort I put in each reward. And sadly it turns out the outcome is a little lower than the rate expected for the compensation.
In other words, I'm working a little more than I'm expected to be paid in some of the patreon rewards.
This is no one elses fault but my own, as I didn't properly set the pricing for according to the work I'm putting out, so I'm thinking on once again doing a couple little changes to the tiers.
Please by all means let me know what you think of these changes and if you're okay with them! this list is subject to change and some changes might be amended if needed.
If there's not a significant amount of objections, these changes could officially take place during the 1st week of december this year (2021), and would require you to manually repledge to the new tiers with the new pricing.
List of changes:
- Regarding tier prices
- Tier 4 (Art Investor) will change it's pricing from $30 to $40 USD.
This means instead of having a %45 discount compared to a regular commission ($55) on the same tier, it'll have a %30 discount (%27.30 to be exact) - Tier 5 (Art Associate) will change it's pricing from $40 to $50 USD.
This means instead of having a %43 discount compared to a regular commission ($70) on the same tier, it'll have a %30 discount (%28.57 to be exact) - Tier 6 (The Connoisseur) will change it's pricing from $75 to $85 USD.
This means instead of having a %40 discount compared to a regular commission ($120 or $165) on the same tier, it'll have a %30 discount (%29.16 to be exact) - Regarding tier rewards
- Tier 3 will no longer feature a %5 discount on all commissions
- Regarding new tiers (optional)
- A new tier inbetween the 3rd (Adult supporter) and 4th (Art Investor), called "Sketch dealer", costing around $25 USD and having two slots.
Which will feature a monthly colored sketch of 1 character of any kind (which will feature roughly a %16 discount compared to a regular commission)
All of these changes were made in hopes of getting a proper compensation for the work done and reducing the possible amount of patreons that only pledgeto get a good deal on art commissions (which is not exactly the point of the patreon so far)
These prices will justify dedicating more time to the patreon and deliver things that make it worth it
