Hi all,
There's no doubt about it. Tipping has been a pretty big success so far. Fans love it, creators love it, we love it. It's...it's...just great!
But to make it even MORE successful the entire global comics/webcomics communities really should know about it.
Now of course we here at Tapas Media contact the press all the time when big things happen, and we're doing that for tipping too no doubt.
However if YOU have a story about what tipping means to you, below are some great media contacts that you can reach out to in order to tell your story and share your enthusiasm.
For example: What does the tipping program mean to you? Do tips from your fans motivate you to create more? Is it fun watching the tips come in? Do you have plans to reward top tippers? Do you enjoy tipping other creators too?
If any of those apply to you then let the press know! Right now the press are probably pretty clueless about tipping so if enough creators share their story the press may choose to cover it. And the more the press covers it the better chance of new fans finding your work!
