Only have a few creators on board but they will likely stick around since it's a meaningful amount of money for them. Since this kind of thing really only works for creators will a decent size fan-base, my strategy so far has been to reach out to people directly via email, explain how it works, helping them setup their page, help them launch it to their audience, etc. While that process could be improved, with something like this I think that's inevitable for awhile until word-of-mouth starts growing. I'd say it's a good starting point if you're looking to launch a Patreon-style crowdfunding service, but it might make sense to take what I've built and focus on a particular niche (Youtubers? Open Source projects?) and add features that work well for that niche.
