I was cruising around Patreon and I saw that some patrons had tiers that have limited number slots filled. I was wondering, what is the purpose of having limited tiers? Is it for patrons who are doing temporary projects? I would like to know because I’m thinking about trying my hand at having limited tiers.
Temporary tiers are great for a variety of reasons. I personally use them for tiers that are more time intensive like custom stuff. So commissions or one on one time with a tier is limited to ensure I’m not over extending my resources in a month.
Most folks I know use them for such reasons, to ensure that they aren’t spending a crazy amount of time doing something that could entirely take over their whole life and burn them out if they didn’t have a limit on it.
Now, pay up front and those who don’t use that feature experience limits quite differently but that is a different story.

Thanks! What are some good limited tiers I could use for my account? In my account, I mainly review movies and TV shows and I occasionally do digital art.
Limited tiers could also be used for exclusivity. Sort of like a special club that only a few lucky ones who manage to sign up for can get into. Just tossing another option for using it out there

Cool! What kind of exclusive tiers can be the most effective in attracting new patrons?
