Hi! I was wondering if you knew where to find like, a comprehensive guide of using patreon as a creator? I ask because I know there are resources out there, but I really would like a guide that -you- as a creator and user of the platform find accurate and helpful, if that meakes sense..?

Sadly, no, other than the patreon website itself, which has a pretty comprehensive FAQ last I checked.   I was fortunate enough to learn from first hand experience dished out by @redbeanviolin, who’s learned and honed these skills for years. I’ve seen guides and resources floating around but never really delved into them to find out their validity.  Whenever I’m stumped on how to change something with my patreon I go through my favourite patreon pages and learn from what is working for them. Everyone has a different approach but share a lot of common ground if you start to compare.

The practices and ideas i use on my patreon also come from personal experience as an artist on the internet and learning to market myself over the years.  

If you’re curious about the general mentality i use to approach patreon you might want to look into resources that dissect the idea of Free Marketing.  Be careful which books you pick up though, there are a lot of books out there that ascribe to the idea of ‘spam as marketing’, which isn’t really what i’m takling about.
