Got commissioned, further development

Turned a commission for a valentine's day card into a little animation, just for kicks.

 PlatForm Scheduling Overview: Avoid too many calls for money

Sort of related to scheduling because of 'when you time your calls or advertisements': to avoid over asking.

 When every page is plastered with it and every return interaction with the artist is 'HERE IS WHAT I HAVE FOR SALE' it’s a little off putting. It bleeds dry good sentiment if it's constant. You are trying to get people invested and supportive of what you do.  If people don't or can't afford it, they start to feel uncomfortable if every return interaction is 'Money?" or the equivalent.

Just under the post in the link at bottom seems reasonable.

When it's the majority of your landing page, or posts, it's less so. 

Landing Page, working definition: First things people see when they see you. Snerk.

Professionals seem to do a short term drive for money around certain time periods which makes sense.

If we know not everyone can use every platform, the multiple options make more sense. Some people might be banned from etsy, or kofi, or patreon, or so on, so people having all available makes sense.

Take away:

Have your things for money available but don't scream it with every post (Status, journal, arts, so on.) or have the majority of your landing page be that. It drains energy of possible patrons or appreciators, and unless you have a very large following already, appreciators sharing is worth actual money.
