Patreon is great! I've used it in the past but had to close it down because of work. I am designing a new page as we speak, so I'm super excited to hear to you are thinking about it! I saw that it also now has free memberships if you wanted to throw freebies out there to your community! I'm sure that would attract people. Your content is amazing! Even if you have a "small amount" of followers, you have regulars, and that's who are going to enjoy your products at the beginning and will also be able to say "I'm an OG" when you get hundreds of Patrons ;) haha Also I'm jealous! there are not enough Geeky Markets here in Vancouver! Unless, yknow... I'm just blind haha **The following are spoilers from the video, so don't read if you haven't watch the vid yet!** Congrats on making your goal!!! That's super exciting! It's SUCH a bummer when other events take away possible customers, but I'm glad that you have an amazing outlook on it! It's so easy to compare yourself to other vendors, too, but we have to think about what they sell and how much they sell them for. I'm not a fan of hearing "I only made twice my table back* at some markets, when I barely make mine hahaha Thanks for the vid!
Thank you!!! :) Yes that's what I think about Patreon- it seems great for building community as well which is what i would love to do! Appreciate your insight on it. Good luck on your new page too!
