Decision regarding Stretch Goals
3 months ago – Thu, Jul 04, 2024 at 10:15:07 PM

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with us! We really appreciate hearing from you. After carefully reviewing all the feedbacks and considering the situation, we made a decision. Despite the results of the poll, we've decided to stick with our original plan for the stretch goals.
 
We initially proposed that, simply because we wanted to do better, to make sure everyone was happy and had a variety of choices (with the current funds, at least 2 big plushies would have been unlocked anyway, and you would have been able to choose which ones to unlock!) Perhaps we could have even raised more funds in the end, unlocking something else. Many people still do not pledge unless their favorite items are unlocked.

That proposal also took into account those who have pledged for the bundle with a little bit of everything, including acrylic charms and pocket plushies. Which in the current situation (with things staying as they are) they could not receive other items but the big plushies (although extra credit can still be used in the survey for the shipping costs or for extra items to add later).

Just fyi, we couldn't make a change into the stretch goals order just after one day or a few days from launch. It's hard to predict how a campaign will progress (especially with the strong start this had), how much funding will come in next, and which things should be switched at start. These factors can only be evaluated after a good amount of time has passed.

>After seeing other creators make similar changes -switching goals- in their campaigns, we thought about doing it ourselves too, in this situation.

Also, turning this campaign into one focused only on big plushies and saving the other items for a future campaign, isn't something possible right now. Once a tier is pledged to, we can't remove it in any way... so those items have to stay available.

Strong words have been used towards us and we understand that our proposal may have stirred up strong emotions or anxiety for some of you (which was never our intention, especially in a campaign focused on providing emotional support).

As a result, we have decided to maintain everything as it is, and we will keep working to ensure that this campaign is the best it can be for all of you. Your support and understanding mean a lot to us in this situation!

We hope that you will still find joy in these goodies and that together we can overcome any challenges~

Thank you for being a part of this Cuddles&Snuggles journey so far. We appreciate your understanding, your valuable input and continued support!


Wish you a lovely Friday and weekend ahead in the meantime,

Switching Stretch Goals? Poll!

Hey Backers Frens! Hope you're doing well during these hot days ( ˶ノω<˶ )☀️

After careful consideration, we're thinking of shaking things up a bit by 'repositioning' our current fundings and rearranging the stretch goals. This change will allow us to unlock a wider array of items, ensuring that you get the most out of your pledges! - ̗̀꒰ ฅ ˵╹ ヮ ╹˵ ฅ꒱  ̖́-   Plus, it will give our bundles more purpose and give everyone the chance to collect a character for each item~

We'd love to hear your thoughts on these updates, so please take a moment to vote in the poll below! Your feedback matters to us ૮₍ ˵◕´ ヮ `◕˵ ₎ა🗳️💕   

Here's a sneak peek at how the new goals might look:
•̀First goal: Big plush (Cowddles)
•̀Second goal: Small plush (you get to choose via Poll!)
•̀Third goal: Acrylic charms



The remaining stretch goals will feature alternating big and small plushies, with the unlocking order decided by your votes { ˶•̀  ꈊ •́ ˶ } و ̑̑


In the meantime, just fyi we've been busy working on other additions like Peanut the opossum in Pocket form (as it won the previous poll), a Strawberry version of Cowddles 🍓 As well as new charms (featuring some of our fluffy family members) and completely new designs for pins. But at the moment it's just not possible to include them { ˵•́ ꈊ •̀˵ }


While we can't add these new items just yet, what we can ask of you is to please share our campaign far and wide with your friends and family, as much as possible ૮꒰ ◕´ ㅅ `◕˵ ꒱ა💌  Your support means the world to us, and we also truly appreciate every share and shoutout!



Thank you for being amazing backers, and let's make this campaign even more incredible together! 🌈💗


Until next time~

Backers Choice: New Poll ̖́-
3 months ago – Wed, Jun 19, 2024 at 04:42:16 PM

Last poll has ended and the winner as a new thing to add to the campaign, is "New Pocket plushies"! Now we want you to vote, which New Pocket Plushies should be made, tho 👀


P.S. If we don't manage to add New Big Plushies -as many others wanted- within this campaign, we can totally make them in a next one (i.e. a huge Kiki as has been much requested... or even different ones, like the suggested Deer!)


Thank you so much + Poll ̖́-

We are absolutely thrilled by the incredible start we've had! - ̗̀૮₍⍝^ ɷ  ^⍝₎ა ̖́-  We've already funded half of the campaign, and both of our first goals have been unlocked! 
Now, we'd love to hear if there's anything else you'd like to see added to the campaign in general. We've read all your comments and requests regarding other things to add~

And we created a Poll with the options we were considering, so you can vote directly!


Here's a sneak peek/example of what we're thinking for the Enamel Keychain (double-sided) 

And an example for Enamel Pins (which might also feature an enamel magnetic t-shirt accessory, similar to our previous BunniePots pins and Bin Buddies).
