“One of the very best things you can do to maximise donations is to set a suggested amount. This leaves people free to pick how much they donate, but still gives them an idea of the value of your work…”

Most of my creative projects are either supported by donations, or run on a pay-what-you-feel basis. These models are excellent ways of making art accessible while also earning a living.

In this piece I make the case for trying a donation-based model, and share everything I know about how to maximise donations to your creative project. Hopefully you find it convincing enough to give it a shot. Let me know if you do!
