integrations option to be redirected to
the integrations page on the tubebuddy
dashboard click link account in the
patreon section if you haven't signed up
for a patreon yet click sign up to
create a patreon account when you link
your patreon account to Buddy pulls the
list of your patrons if you don't have
any supporters on patreon this feature
isn't that useful and your screen will
look like this however if you do have
patrons like our good friend Nick Nieman
we'll show you what's possible from the
integrations area click manage settings
slash few comments there is a lot to
look at but let's start with a comments
page click view comments and to buddy
will scan your most recent 2000 video
comments and show you all comments that
are from your patreon supporters please
note that scanning 2,000 comments can
take a few seconds so please be patient
who replied to your patrons comment
simply click the reply button here if
you want to reply to someone else on the
thread click the view on YouTube link
and will redirect you to the comment on
the video watch page for you to respond
on the left hand side of the screen
you'll see your total number of patrons
and various ways to filter comments
including only showing comments that you
haven't replied to yet below that you'll
see possible patreon matches these are
people who have commented on your video
and have the same or very similar name
as one of your patrons but we aren't
100% sure this is we're unable to match
their channel IDs on patreon which
brings up an important topic in order to
highlight someone in your comments we
need to be able to match your patrons
with their corresponding you too
channel if you click manage here you'll
get back to your patron overview page
this shows you how many of your patrons
we were able to tie back to a YouTube
channel we provide some suggestions in
our helpful hints area to be sure we get
channel information collected for as
many patrons as possible
for example update your patron Thank You
page to tell you support us to fill out
their patreon profile at www.petland.com
slash settings / profile to include
their channel URL so that you'll be able
to identify them in the YouTube comments
by YouTube buddy most people will notice
patrons in the missing tab these are
people who are supporting you but
haven't entered their channel details on
their picture on account in order to
gather their channel information we
created a quick way for you to send them
an email using our channel request
wizard we will email your patrons who
did not enter their channel URL in the
patreon settings and request that they
provide us a link to their YouTube
channel so that we can identify them in
video comments for you please note that
you can only use the channel request
wizard once so that you don't spam your
patrons once you send them this email
they will show up in the notify tab
another suggestion is that you create a
post on patreon
letting your supporters know that they
should enter in their channel URL in
their patreon settings which will help
you identify them on YouTube through the
- buddy browser extension and finally
for Legend level licenses in addition to
viewing comments on the - buddy backend
website you are able to schedule an
email digest to buddy can send you daily
weekly or monthly emails showing you a
list of comments from your patrons this
is our third entry into our integration
series you can check out the
integrations playlist on screen now do
you have a patreon let us know in the
comments below and if you enjoyed this
