⁉️ Access to Series NSFW Parts? ⁉️ [Patron Exclusive or Free to All?]

Avavago

You can do teasers or something

Nickhoutz

Maybe do a free teaser to get them hooked and then they have to be a patreon and support you for the full thing that way your earn on what you spend time doing an amazing job on.

i think you should do whats best for you Tea. I'm not gonna stop supporting even if others get access to the same content.

Spectral Dragon

A short teaser trailer version of it could be free to entice people to become patrons. That is the deal, after all. We give you money, you give us the great content that you do. In the interests of this being financially viable for you and rewarding the patrons, a teaser for free is probably the best middle ground.

Garrett Gregory

I gotta say, I like that idea.

Mitori

As many others have said I don't feel taken for granted, I support as a patron simply because I want to support you on your endeavours. Whichever way you decide to go with this that won't change.

Martin John Campbell

Why not just give youtube a vote to release 1 audio from horny jail every so often?

Frohawk

I don't feel taken for granted Tea, in fact I feel really well valued, and honesty I'm happy for other people to benefit for free as not everyone can afford to support. This is your work and your livelihood though Tea and so if you think making these audios patron only will help support you then I'm fully onboard for this.

I feel like you should release some nsfw stuff as ADS but not the long running ones; just the one stand nsfw ones. like you usually do. that is how found out you had a patreon. it drew me in to become a member;because I already loved the SFW stuff, on your old YouTube channel. the having a patreon was just icing on the cake.

It may sounds like a nice gesture, Tea. But you must think for yourself as well. Everyone needs capital, including me. The reason why I became a patron, other than listening to your exclusive audios, is to support you as one of my favorite ASMR artist. It doesnt mean you're greedy if you need money.

While i admit the nsfw audios are what incentivized me become a patron The knowledge that I'm supporting someone i think does an excellent job at making content I like is what keeps me paying every month. For me having the series ending free to all can only bring more in . I only have a set amount of money to spend each month and therefore am unable to support everyone i like so i know the feeling of liking content and being unable to experience stuff due to financial issues so to me allowing people to enjoy specifically series nsfw parts is a way to allow those without the ability to at least get closure in those stories.

I feel like you can keep them exclusive. Even if the NSFW part is integral to later parts, I feel like you have the talent to write it in a way that a listener can still enjoy it without having to listen to an exclusive audio.

Meadiocracy

It's a catch 22 really. The plus to exclusive is the incentive to pledge, and it should somewhat keep those under 18 from getting to it. On the flip side free helps those that can't squeeze the funding to pledge however I can fully see pledges dropping off as the content would become free anyways whether altogether or just timed.

MM2211

free audio is all fine and all, but if one of the goal is more money for more content production, then its perfectly fine to be patreon exclusive.

CurrentlyEatingPies

If they do end up being not free I think that something should be in the archive to say "missing audio". Sort of like 1. Audio 2. Audio 3. Audio 4. Patreon exclusive 5. Audio, just so people know.

Mranqueetas

I feel like this is very sensible, missing out on something super plot heavy would probably really suck. If it's "just" the dirty deed so to speak, I feel like it might not be so bad if it were exclusive

TheTMoneyMan

My $0.02. If they are plot relevant, EG they discuss doing something like going on vacation during the aftercare section, then make it public. If it is not plot relevant and is just a side story where they have sex, IE this is part 4.5 and is not relevant to the story but if you want it here it is, then keep it private. Otherwise, it is your work and you know it's value. Please do with it what you want and are comfortable with.

Ryan Rainey

I agree. I am not fussed but a middle ground would be good.

LadyMaria

I think keeping them exclusive for a few weeks may be a good idea, but then make a few that are purely for patreon? I don't know, I'm not good with these things. I just want everyone to be happy :(

To actually give my opinion, i feel as if people are forgetting its your livelihood, and locking the nsfw behind a wall will make people want it. Thats the whole reasons theres different tiers is it not? By the by, why not make some nsfw patreon series?

Castor

I wouldn’t personally feel cheated but if the goal is to expand your Patreon I think you should give them only a taste of the audio and put the rest behind a paywall so they’d be incentivized to pay and expand

Zeno_Nox

It would probably be better for you to keep them exclusive, but I feel like sometimes a person may just enjoy hearing the end of a series. I saw someone say that maybe keep them locked for a few weeks and then make them free to all and I would have to agree with that idea. Its a nice compromise between the 2 options

Elijah King

I like sharing, but whoever said locking it would entice more people to pledge makes a good point.

Mranqueetas

I mean just purely philosofically Id rather they be kept free. It doesn't bother me in the slightest because I know not being able to experience the whole story is such a shitty feeling if you can't afford it. If the reality is that it would bring in more patrons then that gets messier. I voted for keep them free but in the end what benefits you more is probably more important.

Mattygee

When I first discovered your patreon ii felt happy that I could get some closure to the series here. But there is also the consideration that some of the listeners are under the age of 18 which is the main reason why I'd say keep it exclusive, not necessarily as a reward but more of a way to restrict underage people accessing adult content. Theres also the argument that under eightens could find regular adult content even easier by typing words I to google but the point is do you want YOUR 18+ content possibly being accessed by under 18's. Sorry it's long but thats my take

Mike Taylor

Keeping the NSFW endings exclusive to patrons helps incentivize membership and it helps to keep the audios away from minors.

Jacob Griffith

I'd say making them Patreon exclusive would be better for your business. Bring them in with the free stuff and charge for the happy ending, if you will ; )

Democracy shall decide!

To split the difference, you might just release them free like a month later. I know a lot of Patreon creators do that.

Lucas

I’m personally in favour of making it exclusive to patrons, not for myself of course but I think it’ll be great for YOU and be great exposure for your Patreon and following. Regardless, whatever you feel comfortable with! I just want more people to experience your AMAZING content ❤️

Lederp

Personally not fussed if theyre exclusive or not but i get why some people are. Maybe a middle ground like it goes free to all after a couple of weeks might appease everyone?

Thank you
