Your exceptional work is already out there, but new fans just haven't seen it yet. Let's change that.

Malte Dueholm, the creator of watchpaintdry_minis, was already spending every available hour on his craft and sharing it with the world. When he heard about Quips, his first thought was: where would he find the time?

It turns out he didn't need much. Just enough to pick a post he'd already shared on Instagram, find the original file, and upload it as a Quip. In the last 30 days, those recycled posts drove over one-third of his revenue. See how Malte did it!

Give an old post new life

Pick something you've already made and share it as a Quip. Maybe it's a piece you're proud of, something that got great engagement, or work that really represents you.

Why this works: New fans scrolling the feed have never seen your old work. A throwback gives them a taste of what you create with little additional effort.

Here's how to do it

Already shared it on Patreon as a post for your members? Go to your Library, find the post, and reshare it as a Quip. On mobile, tap the 'Share' button and select 'Reshare'. On web, paste the post link directly into the Quip composer.

Posted it somewhere else first? Find the original file — whether that's in your camera roll, Google Photos, or wherever you save your work — and upload it directly into the Quip composer. Add a line about why you love it, and share it with the Patreon community. No need to create anything new.

That's it. That's your easiest Quip yet.

Pro tip: Older posts work best—something from many months ago (even years!) that new fans would never scroll back to find.
