Patronizers, especially print level Patronizers, are top-tier supporters. **Make them happy.** Patronizers can sign up via Patreon or TWP direct.

====== Verify List of Current Patronizers ======

MWL does this step. 

Verify print-level Patronizer shipping information when the Kickstarter survey launches. I have few enough Patronizers that I maintain a spreadsheet of their shipping information and phone numbers.

Copy the latest Patronizer spreadsheet from the prior book to a new sheet named after the current book. Verify current membership of each entry.

Patreon:

* Log into Patreon creator account.
* click Audience
* click Paid members
* under Filters, select Saved filters - > Print Tiers
* make sure those names are in the spreadsheet

TWP:

* Log into woocommerce
* select woocommerce-> memberships
* select Active
* check for memberships in Print Readership tier. (Higher levels are included in this list.)
* verify all these names are in the spreadsheet
* if any show last activity as over 1 month ago, check the account to see if they're on a quarterly or yearly plan -- be sure they've paid. Woo can be flaky about who's active and who isn't.

====== Once spreadsheet is updated ======

On the mail server, MWL updates verify-patronizer-addresses.pl for the current book and makes sure the sender address is the DAD account.

MWL uploads the spreadsheet to the mail server and runs verify-patronizer-addresses.pl. This sends an email to all Patronizers, including their address and phone number and requesting verification.

Patronizers reply with "yes, that's right" or corrections. Replies go to DAD's email.

DAD updates the control spreadsheet as needed.
