Burn Club & Burn Club+

I first started Burn Club because I needed a way to be able to get a hold of people in the community. Too many people were missing posts, challenges, and opportunities, because the Instagram algorithm didn’t show it to them. I wanted to be able to connect with everyone easier, so I created Burn Club.

For the past couple years, Burn Club has been completely free and open to any and all pyrographers. While technically, Burn Club was simply my email list, it felt like so much more than that. I worked to bring the Burn Club community together through emails, events, community news, and highlighting artists. I wrote many newsletters that were full of information specifically for pyrographers, each email taking me around 3 hours to put together. I also put together some weekly/month-long/weeklong challenges, so many giveaways, a calendar, a craft fair, organized fundraisers, community chats, coupon codes, and so much more all with the intention to help my fellow pyrographer. I freely offer wood burning tips, business help, and am always available to the community, because I really want to see you all succeed.

The thing that I realized through doing all of these community building events is that no matter how many events I created, or the number of emails I sent out, Burn Clubbers didn’t have a place that they could call home. A place where they could congregate and really learn from one another, and I think I finally found the platform for it.

Introducing: Burn Club+

Burn Club+ is the next level. It allows us all to connect in a way that we couldn’t before. It allows me to answer all your questions in depth. It allows us all to dive into subjects that matter when it comes to wood burning and business. I think the best part of all is that in Burn Club+ you are surrounded by people who believe in the power of community. We get to connect, learn, support, and grow with each other in a safe space, and so far, it has been everything I hoped it would be, and it is just the coolest thing!

Burn Club+ is only going to get better with time, and we get to shape it. You get a say in what you want to see and talk about in Burn Club+. It is your space, just as much as it is mine. The information that goes up, stays up and is searchable. You can look up finishes whenever you want, and get the answers you were looking for.

We have started to cover finishes, and are going to be diving deep into nibs, their uses and how to clean them next. It also looks like our first Zoom chat is going to be around the topic of Instagram! Now, tell me all that isn’t worth $10/month?

Since we started, we’ve talked about wood burning machines and companies providing wood, tools and accessories. We’ve discussed social media presence, how to rock Pinterest, where to start if you need a website… We’ve reviewed Burn Clubbers accounts (websites, pinterest, instagram). And so much more!!

Burn Club+ is a subscription-based service hosted on Patreon. For the price of a cup of coffee you can join Burn Club+ and reap the benefits. The moment you sign up, you are already learning so much, and I have seen members say that Burn Club+ is saving them money! My goal is for it to make you money!

Burn Club will continue to be free and open to everyone, it just will not contain quite as much information as it used to, and will only arrive in your inbox once a month. Burn Club+ is where you want to be.

Hope to see you in there.
