potential tier adjustments, input?

first i just wanna say thank you all for another successful month on patreon. although life & world events are feeling pretty overwhelming, i am glad i have this platform to keep me encouraged to make things.

i want to go over a few possible tier changes, improvements, what i could add, how i can do better.

to start, i have come to the conclusion that the 20% commission discount for eagle patrons may be too high. i am considering changing the discounts to something like 5% for hawk tier and 10% for eagle tier. alternatively, i may also need to experiment more with commission prices, so i am not undercharging when a discount is applied. (if these changes are implemented, the current discounts will still be available for eligible patrons for the rest of the month)

i am also toying with the idea of adding an additional tier, and/or changing the amount of slots available for the higher tiers. the $15 tier filled faster than i was expecting, so i brainstormed a couple alternative ideas. a $20-$25 tier could be added, ensuring a sketch with color, while the $15 tier ensures an uncolored sketch. (currently it is just up to how i'm feeling whether i do colored or uncolored.) in this case i could have maybe 10 slots for the uncolored tier and 5 for the colored tier, to start. initially i thought maybe i could lower the $15 tier to $10, but i don't think i can justify doing custom drawings for that price.

if an additional tier was added, the names may become egg / chick / fledgling / hawk / eagle, but i'm not committed & i'm open to other suggestions if you think you have a decent idea!

also, i wanted to see what you guys think of a discord group? i like the idea, but i don't know anything about managing a group, and i don't know if i have enough patrons yet for it to make sense. (the discord would also be for 18+ tiers only, but i guess that doesn't really matter at this point since nobody has pledged at the egg tier.)

to conclude, i would appreciate your thoughts on these ideas, as well as any other feedback you guys may have. is my posting frequency okay? would it be better if i posted more things weekly instead of a couple things every day or two? would you prefer to see more of a certain kind of content, such as more sfw, more design work, etc? do you feel like i am delivering okay on the outlined tier benefits, or is there something i could do better? 

thank you all once again! ^^

I think a patreon server could be fun n i also agree that 20% is a lot

I think you're doing absolutely amazing at keeping up with your tiers and content! I think the 20% discount is a bit much though, you could lower it or apply it to a higher tier if added! Make it worth the discount to you c: If you add additional tiers, limiting it to slots is definitely a good idea to not get overwhelmed! Also, I think a discord server would be a FANTASTIC idea!! It would help have everyone in the same place and make it easier for you to keep track of who is in what tier, art rewards, and interact with your patrons a lil more directly if you wish! I know how to set up and manage a server, Patreon servers too, so if you decide on it and want some help I wouldn't mind lending a hand! Hope that's not too much info haha, love the ideas though, keep up the great work! 🧡🧡
