However, it\u2019s not exactly a reliable way to earn money.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Another potential income stream that gained more traction in light of this global pandemic is Patreon.<\/strong>&nbsp;The idea of a consistent monthly income has attracted more musicians to the platform in hopes of finding financial stability through these uncertain times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There has been skepticism about the ability to generate any substantial money on Patreon, but it is possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I know firsthand because&nbsp;<strong>I currently manage a Patreon page for a musician ranked in the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/graphtreon.com\/patreon-creators\/music\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">top 100 for the highest number of patrons in the music category<\/a>.<\/strong>&nbsp;Since we\u2019ve launched in 2018, he\u2019s been able to make well above a living income solely through Patreon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this blog, I\u2019ll share some of my insights and tips for those considering starting their own Patreon campaign. This will serve as a preview to my eBook where I go into depth and detail on all the topics I cover here and much more.&nbsp;<strong>You can download my eBook&nbsp;<em>Patreon for Musicians<\/em>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/d4musicmarketing.com\/patreon-for-musicians\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is Patreon?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Patreon has been around since 2013, but I thought I\u2019d share a quick refresher for those who may not be familiar with how it works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Patreon is a membership platform that allows you to earn a recurring monthly income directly from your fans.<\/strong>&nbsp;It\u2019s similar to a crowdfunding campaign, but it\u2019s for an ongoing basis, just like paying for your favorite music streaming service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this subscription-based model, fans become \u201cpatrons\u201d by pledging a certain amount of money in exchange for specific rewards and perks offered at different price tiers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although there is a transactional element in Patreon, you can also build your membership around a community and altruistic support for your art. Think of it as creating your private fan club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Patreon is more popular than ever<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, Patreon has seen the largest growth of new creators on their platform in the company\u2019s entire history in March of 2020. In the first 3 weeks, Patreon saw a 21% jump on its platform, which is roughly 35,000 creators launching new membership pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The music category went up by 25% with over 3,000 new pages from music creators in this period.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/diymusician.cdbaby.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/patreon-increase-music-creators-2020.jpg\" alt=\"Graph for Patreon for Musicians: The Ultimate Guide Preview\" class=\"wp-image-28863 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/diymusician.cdbaby.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/patreon-increase-music-creators-2020.jpg\" alt=\"Graph for Patreon for Musicians: The Ultimate Guide Preview\" class=\"wp-image-28863\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Patreon right for you?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With its growing popularity, does this mean you should launch your Patreon page?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It depends. As much as I love and support Patreon, I can tell you it\u2019s not easy to build and sustain a membership page. I\u2019ve helped launch Patreon campaigns for two other musicians that flopped while their peers ended up abandoning their efforts as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The fact is a membership model is not for everyone.<\/strong>&nbsp;Here are some questions to consider:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Do you have any unique selling propositions to offer on Patreon?<\/li><li>Do you have loyal fans that would be willing to support you monthly? Do you have the means to reach these people?<\/li><li>Do you have the patience and commitment to grow on a new platform? Are you comfortable with promoting your Patreon regularly?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>One surprising statistic I discovered was that 72% of Patreon pages in the music category do not have more than 10 patrons!<\/strong>&nbsp;I know everyone reading this can get more than 10 patrons if they really put the energy into promoting it consistently and strategically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>It\u2019s important for musicians to know that there are no discovery features on Patreon.<\/strong>&nbsp;They provide the tools and the platform, but it is entirely up to you to funnel your fans from other channels into paying patrons. This means starting a Patreon campaign makes more sense if you\u2019re an established artist or band with a sizable fanbase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Based on my own personal research, I would say&nbsp;<strong>you need at least 11,000 fans on one platform<\/strong>&nbsp;like YouTube, Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Set-Up Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you feel you have what it takes, here are tips to help you with structuring your membership page. There are a lot of details to cover when setting up Patreon, so you can find more insights in my eBook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Start simple<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to your approach to setting up and structuring your Patreon page, \u201ckeeping it simple\u201d should be your guiding principle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the big mistakes I made in the past was over-complicating the tier and reward structure. At that time, I believed that you needed to offer fans a polished and fully built-out membership page to impress them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t invest too much time trying to make everything perfect. Spend more time on a promotional plan for launching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I realize now that it is not necessary and there are more advantages to starting simple:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>You get your page out faster so you can start generating income. Some fans just want to support you and don\u2019t care about all the fancy perks.<\/li><li>You can be clearer and more concise in your messaging. It\u2019s easier to pitch to fans without worrying about confusing them with too many details.<\/li><li>You can always add new tiers and rewards later. These changes can be used as a promotional campaign to build around to get more members.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019re starting out, set the foundation for your Patreon page with 1 \u2013 3 tiers that offer your core benefits. Make sure the other elements of your membership page, like the about page, the introduction video and branding, are on point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, it\u2019s better to add and adjust as you go rather than breaking things down to change something already built.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Give fans what they want<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to get input from your fans about what they want from a membership experience. Starting simple allows you to incorporate their feedback so you can grow your Patreon around benefits they\u2019re more likely to be excited about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>According to Patreon, the most popular benefits across all types of creators are:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Exclusive content<\/li><li>Early access<\/li><li>Physical goods<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll be in good shape if you offer these types of perks with your membership page, but you might want to find out from your fans directly. For your current patrons, use the built-in polling feature on Patreon. It\u2019s a great way to get them involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a new analytics dashboard in beta right now that allows you to see post engagement data for the past week. It\u2019s like what you would see in Instagram analytics, although not quite there yet. You\u2019ll want to use this feedback to evaluate what type of content gets your fans excited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We were able to use this to evaluate a new type of exclusive content my client has never done before: meditation music. It turns out his patrons love it by comparing the post engagement we\u2019ve seen in this dashboard. This led to a suggestion from a fan to do guided meditation sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Hold off on physical rewards<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Along the same veins as keeping it simple, stick to digital rewards first. This is advice you may hear for crowdfunding campaigns as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fans love merch, especially if it\u2019s offered exclusively to your patrons. At the same time, I know from my experiences that merch can get complicated without a system or proper infrastructure in place to handle it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Patreon does not have features on their platform for you to easily manage and track merch rewards if you\u2019re producing your own physical goods to ship.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They do have something called&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/merch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Merch for Membership<\/a>&nbsp;that integrates a drop shipping feature to track and fulfill certain physical rewards seamlessly for you. However, I\u2019m not the biggest fan of drop shipping for clothing items and their fees seem a bit steep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Offer digital rewards first and hold off on the physical merch until you get into a good groove with the other aspects of your membership experience.<\/strong>&nbsp;For us, we didn\u2019t end up integrating merch until 1.5 years later from when we first launched.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I cover more about merch and how we handled it without Patreon\u2019s merch for membership feature in my&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/d4musicmarketing.com\/patreon-for-musicians\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">eBook<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Growth Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is an area musicians often struggle with the most. How do you get your existing fans to become paying patrons?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before getting to that, here are some statistics I gathered using&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/graphtreon.com\/patreon-creators\/music\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Graphtreon<\/a>&nbsp;to give you an idea of what numbers to expect with a membership business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Looking at the top 500 of music creators (ranked by the number of active patrons):<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The top music creator has about 5,100 patrons.<\/li><li>The creator at position 500 has about 100 patrons.<\/li><li>The average is 275 patrons.<\/li><li>96% of the other music creators have less than 100 patrons.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting 100 patrons may not seem a lot, but it shows you how challenging it can be when most music creators have less than that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are strategies and tactics you may want to consider when growing your Patreon membership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Think outside of social media and emails<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although social media and email marketing are easily accessible channels to reach your fans, they may also not be the most effective in converting them into Patreon members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Email will fare better than social media in regards to conversion rates, but you may need to consider a more personal and direct tactic to persuade them to join.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It could be using a text message marketing tool like&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.superphone.io\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SuperPhone<\/a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.community.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Community<\/a>. This is not a tool that is easily accessible for independent artists, but another musician I helped was already using SuperPhone. We found text message marketing to be much more effective to get patrons for her than social media and email combined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An alternative is sending a DM (direct message) to fans one by one on Instagram or Facebook. Assuming you have fans with a strong emotional connection to your brand, direct messaging fans individually can be surprisingly effective. It\u2019s not scalable, but&nbsp;<strong>this personal one-to-one interaction was exactly what my client did to grow his membership business into the top 100<\/strong>. Just don\u2019t use bots or copy\/paste the exact message in each DM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Use special offers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Patreon has a built-in feature called \u2018Special Offer\u2019 that allows you to run limited-time exclusive deals to incentivize new fans to join or to get current patrons to move up tiers.&nbsp;<strong>This is only available for creators who charge monthly and not per-creation.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you set up a special offer on Patreon, the specific tiers that are affected will be highlighted in a yellow box with the number of days left in the offer. Set it to run for about 4 weeks to give yourself plenty of time to create a promotional campaign around it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, you can offer a special song or EP download that fans can\u2019t get anywhere else unless they sign up for the tier with the special offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m a big fan of doing personalized video shout outs because fans are likely to share the video on their social media channels to give you extra brand awareness. You can offer this to the first 20 people who sign up for your Patreon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Premiere new content in Patreon first<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you have a new music video, merch designs or even an album, leverage that attention to promote your Patreon page.<\/strong>&nbsp;Premiere new content on Patreon and let fans know that your members get to see all your new stuff before anyone else. Assign this early access perk to a lower price tier, like $1 or $2 dollars, and use it as a foot-in-the-door strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might start by premiering a new video on Patreon as a public post so anyone can view it. Link to the specific post directly from your other social media accounts to drive traffic. The idea is to get people familiar with your new membership page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the other new releases, you can tease your fans on social media by linking them to a gated post on Patreon where only your patrons can view it. Remind them that for as low as $1, they can get early access to your new videos before the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is exactly what we did in varying capacities after we launched his Patreon page in April of 2018. In the 3 months leading up to his new album release in June, we premiered 3 music videos, a couple of singles and merch all through his Patreon. We let his members pre-order a limited merch bundle first before everyone else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get Started<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The good news is that&nbsp;<strong>it doesn\u2019t cost anything to set up or launch a Patreon page<\/strong>.
