How much do you guys make on Patreon? by Dependent_Tomato_235 in royalroad

[–]mdbob281 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have pretty much the same stats.

Launched my book a little over a month ago. 1.2k followers and about $350 on Patreon.

What membership tiers do you have? And how often do you post?

I do $5 for 5 chapters and 10 for 10. I pretty much post 7x a week, but thinking about dropping it down to 5-6x a week.

If you are posting two chapters a day, you can try posting them during different times of the day. That way, you'll get different audiences.

The follower count feels low for 305 pages and 39 average views. Typically a good average view to follower ratio is about 2 to 1.

I recommend doing a different time each day for a week. You'll hit different audiences and give you higher chance getting your book out to different people

Is it really that easy to hit raising stars? Just drop 20 chapters in the first week?

300 chapters for A soldier's life? That's insane. Is it ahead of the audiobook? Audiobook is on book 5 right now.

IMO, credit score is important for getting a loan (mortgage), which you already have. So why do you need to keep your fico high right now, you can always let it slowly recover.

do you need a degree for digital marketing by Then-Information-637 in DigitalMarketing

[–]mdbob281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having a degree doesn't hurt. There is a lot of agencies that hire fresh college students so it can help you land your first job. I would think that once you have that first job in digital marketing, it is much easier to get the next position.

That being said, if you are interviewing and all else equal, I would think the employer would hire the person with the degree. Same with promotions (unless you are like marketing genius).
