Change of Tiers

Hello everyone!

Today I proceeded to edit all the tiers contents in according with the new Patreon setting rules, which asked more infos about Benefit I offer you, and to set their value in accordance to Advanced Sales Tax Settings. 

By using these settings to give Patreon further detail on exactly what Benefits I offer and how much those things should be valued for sales tax purposes, you may save your Patrons some sales tax depending on where they are located and the tax laws in their location. 

Not all benefits are taxable in all regions. Having these details from will allow Patreon to charge tax only where absolutely necessary.

I must confess that I don't like donations to be taxed, also because I already leave fees in Patreon, fees in paypal, and fees to make a change from dollar to euro, which is unfavorable... :(

Additional fees in Italy to get this money, ultra taxed, finally on my account .... to pay my mortgage ... mainly composed of interest (fees)...

For this reason I would like to tell you that from August I would like to change some tiers by adding a dollar, a single dollar per Tier for the first 3 tiers: Green, Blue and Purple, leaving Gold and Diamond unchanged, to give them an additional Benefit.

Since 2017 I have never increased my tiers which were honest and promotional as there was little material on the site to download at the beginning.
I am not a type of Creator who delete old Rewards, Benefits and Posts, but has been accumulating them for years, on the site and in the posts. Except if I move a file from a post (attachment) directly to the site (to be downloaded).

So from 2017 to 2020, anyone who gives me a dollar now has 3 years more material to get! :D
So I decided to increase the first 3 tiers between August and December 2020.

• In August the Green Tier will rise to $ 2 USD
  
• In October the Purple Tier will rise to $ 5 USD
  
• In December the Blue Tier will rise to $ 10 USD

This is because, honestly, I also want to increase the material on the site before increasing all the Tiers, gradually.

Gold and Diamond Tier will remain unchanged! :)

I also hope that by changing the Tax Settings you will save money and this will bring down the Tier increase!

I hope you will agree with me and you will not mind or be a big deal for you. 

And I want to add that soon I will create a tier containing a commission, which is something that has been requested to me many times by many of you but out of shyness and fear of not to be up to it (I suffer from performance anxiety for commissions) or not to be fast enough, I have never opened. 

But also this year I recently made custom artworks for portfolios, in agreement with the Patrons who have given me time and freedom. 

They are very happy and satisfied with what I have done for them, and I too, because I have trained and improved! 

Now I know what I can and want to do, what I can offer, without anxiety, and you will soon see these custom artworks as examples, with the permission of the Patrons who purchased them together with the Portfolio!

For this reason I deleted the Portfolio Tier, because it will be replaced with an update!
