"When a honor pledge works," is a strategy I used in a FB group that invited other #Patreon creators to an agreement. I was excited to see my ideas bringing values to places where needed. You see, I am single dad of 2 boys. I am a bartender by day and a content creator by night, and in my adventures I started up a Patreon page. I am quiet person, and my friends know me as Bobby Tequila, but when you sit down with me, I have are very creative view on things. This is where I brainstormed this Honor Pledge.
The strategy called for only a $1.00 pledge and if a pledge was made to my Patreon, I would honor back with a $1.00 pledge to their Patreon. My budget only made room for 5 pledges because it did not make sense to keep allowing Honor Pledges reach up to the $25.00 range if there was no real return. This strategy was just to put a figure amount in the dollars box, basically I did not want to see the $0.00 continuously sitting there.
It was a matter of 1 day that the graphic design collected a hit. This, with the knowledge that my Patreon page was born in mid August 2017, it had only been up 2 weeks for a response to get acknowledge that I existed. For that matter, my Patreon was still a work in progress as it is now, but at that time, the page was still feeling out what it was capable of. On another note, the graphic design did collect another hit, and then I pulled it. I think I got the work I wanted out from it.
Yes, my Patreon is now less than 3 months into it. I am now working hard for 5 patrons and my pledge earnings is $6.00. Even though, the strategy was a Honor Pledge, I am still providing the rewards of sharing their Patreon profiles on a daily basis. My Patreon is about creating a #magazine, and the magazine is about promoting other Patreon profiles, so yeah, it seems far fetched, but the reality is, the niche of Patreon artists needing a promoting tool behind their work needed to be filled, and that's where my Patreon fits in.
So here is the graphic. Feel free to download and use for you campaigns. Also, this blog post is doing double duty. At the end of this page you will find a link to the first patron of Tier One Magazine. If you like astrophotography and landscape photos, go see his page. Thank you everyone for your support.
