Patreon Subscriber Drive 2025! Target: 700 Subs!

We did something like this successfully last year, and we’re doing it again: it’s the 2025 Kreative Kontrol Patreon subscriber drive! From November 21 to 28, we’re aiming to reach 700 paid Patreon subscribers and we can do this! Also, a new gift will be announced daily and awarded via random draws among eligible paid subs!

I will publicly announce each drive day’s prize pack in the morning on my Patreon and on socials, and people will have until midnight MT that day to subscribe and be eligible to be entered into these random draws.

All new annual subscribers will receive as many entries into the daily draw as their subscriber tier amount (i.e. if you sign up for an annual sub at $6/month, you’ll receive six entries for that day’s draw) and all existing paid subscribers and new monthly paid subscribers will receive two entries per draw.

If you’re already a paid subscriber and you refer-a-friend to subscribe during the drive, please ask them to message me and mention you, and I’ll double your entries for that day’s draw!

Thanks for your support! Let’s get to 700 Patreon subscribers! Hear me say some of these words on this episode.

600 Subs! Not Sandwiches, Subscribers

I’m holding a Patreon membership drive November 14 to 21, 2024 with a goal of reaching 600 paid subscribers, with as many new subs at the $6 and higher monthly tiers as possible!

During this seven-day membership drive, I have some particularly unique gifts that I’ll be drawing for, among all existing and new $10 and above subs at the end of this campaign. Special and one-of-a-kind pieces of art, music, and merch were contributed by Lou Barlow, Rick White, Lori Damiano, John Samson Fellows, Chad VanGaalen, and Electrical Audio!

See below for visuals of these things. Please subscribe to this show on Patreon, and listen to this episode for more info! Thanks for your support on this drive to 600 Kreative Kontrol Patreon subscribers!

Announcing Kreative Kontrol ‘s SubscrHybrid Plan!

I’m going to experiment with a hybrid subscription model for Kreative Kontrol. Every other episode will be free as usual, while the others will be for Patreon subscribers at the $6 a month level. Those will be full, ad-free episodes. The general public will receive clips/teasers of these episodes on their podcast players with a link to subscribe to hear the whole episode. 

I’ve chosen every other episode as a model because it’s consistent and fair. I don’t want to attribute more value to one episode over another because it might draw larger audiences to the show. Just, every other episode will be subscriber only, so half the episodes will be accessible to the general public. 

The $4 tier will still consist of ad-free versions of the episodes that are otherwise accessible beyond Patreon. To access the subscription-only episodes though, everyone will have to join the $6 tier. The $6 tier will also still include any bonus content that is offered to listeners. Any tier that’s $10 and higher will include all of those perks plus entry into our monthly random prize pack draws. As usual, Patreon subscriptions are flexible so that you can raise, lower, or cancel your support at any time.

I know paywalls are no fun, but I think this hybrid is a nice way of experimenting with a subscriber model while still doing the work of supporting my guests and their work and my listeners who want to engage with the show both as Patreon supporters and as casual listeners.

So, thanks for listening and supporting me on Patreon!
