Week 1 — Build anticipation: Tease what's coming. Share a behind-the-scenes peek. Mention that something new is launching soon.
Week 2 — Launch and reinforce: Drop your first major post. Announce clearly. Follow up with reminders. Consider a limited-time join incentive.
And instead of just telling people about your Patreon, try showing them: "This week I'm sharing a behind-the-scenes look at my latest project — full version is on Patreon."
