Gumroad and Pricing changes
🕑 Added 2017-07-04 09:50:14 +0000 UTC Hey guys, let's talk about old content and Gumroad for a minute.When I relaunched the patreon, I had intended for old stuff to be completely inaccessible, as a be-there-or-be-square kinda thing. But a lot of patrons messaged me wanting the past content, so that was why I opened the Gumroad store. But I didn't want to charge full price for old stuff for patrons, so I made it cheaper.
However, this posed another problem. If you can pick and choose what to pay for on Gumroad for less, what's the point of being a patron? That's why I made a 1-month exclusivity and voting powers patreon exlusive, but it seems this wasn't very rewarding.
Ideally, I would have liked to have had a patreon-exclusive Gumroad, but that wasn't possible. However, I thought of a good solution.
Here's how it works:
- Gumroad content will be more expensive at $10.
- $8+ Patrons (who have stayed $8 for at least 1 cycle) who want to buy old content can message me, and I will generate for them a unique coupon code that will give a 50% discount. This means you get it for $5
I think this will make it closest to my ideal situation. Admittedly $10 seems too high for what's inside, but it had to be higher than the patreon for it to work. If you're not a patron and want a specific pack, it's there if you really want it.
