Why Starting a PATREON in 2022 Might Not be a Good Idea? (An Artist Perspective)

Are you thinking about starting a PATREON? then you should definitely watch this video because it most likely won't work for you. So in this video, I will tell you my learnings, experiencing Patreon as an artist, things you should be aware of, mostly if you are starting out.

My hope is that by the end of the video you understand if does Patreon works and if Patreon is worth it going into 2022. I will tell you a few Patreon alternatives that might work best for you, and the truth about Patreon. Basically, if can you make money on Patreon if you don't have thousands of thousands of followers. In my case, with a total community of over 100K, I couldn't make it work.

Patreon is great, I love the company, the mission, and everything they do, but the truth is that Patreon might not be right for you. So in this video, I cover the one-year history of my Patreon page, ups and downs, tips, and how despite having a good community outside Patreon was hard to build, and not add value to me or my community. This year I decided to shut it down.

Let me know in the comments your experience with Patron or maybe Ko-fi or any other tool you use!
