Update on Merch Drop 6

Hi, my Marvelous Mixolydians!

So I wanna update you on merch drop stuff.

First off, it's NOT going great 😭. My printer is having some serious issues with taking my sticker paper. It can print, and it can print on the sticker paper, but it requires me the mechanically finesse the pages into the printers receiver... and it's very frustrating -.-

That said, I'm still working on it! The process is just incredibly slow and it's a sign that I'll need to get a new printer soon.

For a couple of you who are still active at the Mixolydian tier, your payment for October has lapsed, so you are signed up for Merch Drop 7. I'll make sure you get your order no matter what happens. Even if I have to special order stickers from a sticker printing company, I'll do that for you.

I'm finding the merch process really cumbersome and at times not worth it. At this point, Merch Drop has been 100% a passion project. I make very little money on this after factoring in the cost of materials. Simply put, it's unsustainable the way it is and it's burning me out. That said, I'm really happy I've been able to do this for the ChoPro fans and I'm so grateful for this experience. It'll definitely guide how I handle merch in the future.

So that leads me to my next point, Merch Drop 7 for October 2024 will be the last one I'll do before taking the Merch Drop on hiatus. For the four of you who are actively in the Mixolydian tier right now, Merch Drop 7 is offered to you only. I will not be making it public.

I'll be designing an exclusive Merch Drop 7 sticker, but the menu will remain exactly the same. I won't be adding the Chester Pack at this time. I think it'd be unfair to add something new that the public won't have access to.

If you don't want to participate in Merch Drop 7, please downgrade your pledge right away so you won't forget later. Otherwise, I'll get an order form ready for you after I get all your current orders printed and shipped.

Also, to be clear, I 100% intend to provide y'all with more ChoPro merch! I just have to make some decisions about how I want to approach it. Gotta do some brainstorming and soul searching.

Let me know if you have any questions. You're welcome to DM me anytime.
