Patreon is an incredible crowdfunding platform. "Continuous Funding" is how I'd like to call it.
Continuous Funding solves the problem many high-value funded Kickstarter/Indiegogo projects have: not being able to deliver at a constant pace. It's one thing to write a business proposal to raise funding with excitement. Another to settle down and budgetize the money to prevent burning through it too fast or investing it too slow, meanwhile not being able to focus on the product.
- damcedami 11y agoThing is people at Patreon offer continuous products or contents, while Kickstarter/Indiegogo, most of it, offer one-time products.
- Rygu 11y agoMost of the time that's true. Though I've seen some open source software projects being put on Kickstarter, and every one of them ends in disappointment. Either too low pace, or half of the promised features are cut. (Some joke about software estimates.) It's impossible to complimentary increase or rightfully decrease your contribution depending on performance it's one-off funding.
