I was looking at the kickstarter route very seriously, but a publishing house agreed to publish my book, so I decided to go that way instead. I really enjoy your videos and they have helped me greatly along my journey to get published, keep up the awesome work. -Wesley North

Or can they simply have an account. - On Indiegogo all they referrer has to do is copy the link to the campaign and share it and then we would know who referred the sale? I was under the impression that we have to create custom links for everybody!

    • @lisaferlandcrowdfunding
      @lisaferlandcrowdfunding ปีที่แล้ว

      It all depends! If you need the funding to complete the series, I would suggest no more than 2 crowdfunding campaigns/year (and that's assuming you have a large enough audience to sustain them). If you already have the series completed but have a super strong Book #1, and a large audience, it's possible to run a more ambitious campaign and use the extra funding to recoup expenses for the entire series. As I said, it all depends on your audience size, the demand of the book series, and how developed everything is.
