  • I'm about share to share a few to-do items before launching a Kickstarter or crowdfunding campaign. Many of these are easy to do, but costly to avoid.

    Thanks Sal!
    1. Website / landing page
    2. Build email list
    3. Provide value on content posted on SNS
    4. Costs - best and worst case projections
    5. KS slump - stagnation in the middle of ks period (tip: podcasts, radio shows, blog shoutouts)

    this great content. your comments have given me great food for thought in regards to my KS campaign launching in a few weeks. a few of your key points hit home and will now focus more potential KS slump as you mentioned. thanks again, this is great material.

    This not only gave me some good concentration points for the campaign, but even made me think about ways to improve our overall marketing and product development.

    sal, you truly make learning about crowdfunding a lot easier. personality sells. being confident about of your knowledge comes across well. I am in the publishing end of Kickstarter. will be watching as many videos about raising $ as possible. Thank you Ray

    I think there is a lot to be said about the mindset you have going into a crowdfunding campaign. Resilience, the willingness and ability to adapt, and an unwavering belief in the success of he project are super important. Half way through our campaign we had only raised about 6,000 out of 45,000. We decided to create a new video with some major changes and redoubled our campaigning efforts reaching out to schools to do presentations and radio shows that might get us some publicity. Its possible to come back!

    This is your 3rd video that I have watched. They all have been very informative and have varying content that's unique and helpful. I have my very first children's book that is now up on Amazon in soft back, hard back, kindle and a COLORING BOOK. However, I have not officially launched my book. I am watching all of the educational videos I can before putting together a kickstarter fundraiser. My book is called, "Two Girls in Pajamas For Their Mama's". Thanks again Salvador.

    Thanks Sal! Watched this video because the one before it had some great points! and happy to say we're doing some of them! and for this video I'm happy to say we've checked off #1, #2, #4, #5, #6 and I personally have worked on my section of #3.. It's good to have someone confirming that we're on the right track! Our project will launch tomorrow - July 6 in the early evening - its called Break-A-Leg - we also have info on Facebook, Twitter, etc! come check us out!!

    Great video, thank you! I'm happy to say we have 1-4 already in the works, and I'm familiar with "the slump" from coaching program launches in my (other business) -- that can really mess with your mind, so thanks for the warning! What do you think would help with that? longer lead time/shorter campaign? Bonus incentives? (Thank you!!)

    I have found that with most crowdfunding campaigns many people are not in the poor section of the business building part. Everyone has ideas but when it comes to a homeless person pushing a cart they are left out? Either we all work together or maybe the state government will step in and shutdown crowdfunding

    I am just starting to learn about kick starter. I have a web tool for automotive enthusiasts and I am just getting the prototype online for everyone to see and use. It is a web site that is car brand and model specific and is designed to combine the roll of forums and social media as a tool for classic and performance car owners to improve their cars. I have watched a couple of your videos and just wondered if there is a good how to manual I can download or if you have any advice for me?

  • @coniknepper6255
    @coniknepper6255 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Salvador. I have watched over 5 of your videos in a row today! They are well done, easy to follow, and encouraging. Question- can you touch on non profit organizations or author doing a Kickstarter for non profit. My donors will buy anything to help feed/educate the children we work with in TZ. However I want to take an already published book of mine, translate into Swahili and get it into over 5,000 schools in Tanzania. I have done testing, seminars, documentation on people that have read the book and what they learned , how it changed their life. They always say “ Please translate it into Swahili”. This costs money. I could just go to the donors and ask for it but I need to get out of my non profit bubble of peeps. Is a Kickstarter a good direction?

      There's a real simple solution to this. Don't understand something? Look it up. Google it, look around on youtube. There's super simple videos on how to do almost anything short of brain surgery.

    Like many others, I wish that I would have seen this prior to launch. You have great tips to help and I will be trying to implement them as I go. My Kickstarter is the first of many comics from us called Romy, and experiment gone "bad" leaves a sexy college student with impenetrable skin. She uses her new found power to take down bad guys and give back to the needy. www.kickstarter.com/projects/590286348/romy-1

      Most folk watch YT on mobile. Anything over 360 is unnecessary. It only causes lag in countries with 3rd world internet speeds like Australia.
