Crowdfunding: Kickstarter, Indiegogo, and Ecommerce with CrowdCrux | Crowdfunding Demystified

Marketing is the oxygen of every successful crowdfunding campaign.

Without it, no creator can convert strangers into pledgers, and without pledgers, you won’t be able to launch your project. So, you must get it right!

However, with so many ways to market, it can get quite challenging to pick the perfect way to do it.

In this episode of Crowdfunding Demystified, Salvador Briggman talks to El Whitcombe and how she and her team marketed their board game, Rat Queens: To the Slaughter, and funded it to a mind-blowing $338,354. That’s over five times their initial goal.

You’ll also hear some invaluable marketing tips. For example, El will tell you how they used influencers to boost their backers.

Plus, she reveals their secret tactic to get 4,000 backers before launching their Kickstarter campaign.

If you’ve wanted to get fully funded and make your board game idea into a reality, then this episode is a must-listen for you.

So, grab your pen and notebook, and be ready to write down some priceless marketing tips for your next campaign.

Kickstarter is a fantastic platform for turning your ideas into reality. Better yet, you don’t need anything to start!

All you have to do is create a prototype of your vision and get your marketing on point. If you’d like to increase your chances of success, you should get an audience!

Each one of us has thought of a fantastic business idea. So great, in fact, that you believe it could make you thousands, if not millions!

But then comes the killer of every opportunity - the excuses. You’ll excuse yourself out of action due to not having enough money or time to start this business venture.

Here’s the thing! You’ll never feel completely ready!

Fortunately, you don’t need to! For example, Matthew Mead built an innovative company called Hempitecture which he started as an undergraduate college student in his dorm room.

He has crowdfunded an impressive $3,429,905 on Wefunder. But that’s not the most amazing part!

He achieved it with only 1,220 investors. That means that the average investor invested over 2,000 dollars.

In this episode of Crowdfunding Demystified podcast hosted by Salvador Briggman, Matthew will tell you the secret tactics to building a Wefunder campaign. This includes all the boring legal stuff and exciting things like his marketing strategies.

So what’s stopping you? Grab pen and paper, and take action, or you’ll miss the opportunity.

You don’t want to miss this episode!
