Retention Survey
🕑 Added 2024-04-11 00:00:32 +0000 UTCHi all!
So, a lot has happened for me over the past five-ish months. The most relevant change being that I did leave my job in November with the intention of pursuing a part time job to make more time for this page.
Fortunately, I have been able to use commissions to cover the majority of living expenses as an alternative to part-time work. This is great and I can't really express my gratitude for that in a handful of paragraphs. However, I must begin paying my student loans and my own medical bills. I am also concerned that the Patreon is getting pushed to the side in favor of individual commissions, which wasn't necessarily my intention when I first started the page back in 2022.
My solution to these concerns is to create a detailed "membership expansion" plan that will help with growth and retention. While I've seen 167 memberships over the course of this Patreon being active, I haven't been able to crack 70. So I think a sort of road map plan to get that number up is necessary. This, of course, means more art & benefits.
Anyways, without getting too detailed, I've created a survey that I hope will help with choosing which benefits to focus on and expand. Your feedback would help me a ton!

Alright it's been one minute and I read the suggestion for interactivity in an ongoing sequence which is very fascinating. As a discussion topic for all I'm intrigued about what that would look like. Should I begin a sequence and then encourage bonus characters, nude alts, etc.? Should supporters be able to choose stuff like weight distribution? Also open to hearing more about that in private if it's something OP is comfortable with
