Fixed funding (All or nothing)
vs.
Flexible funding (Any contributions)
Since 2009 on Kickstarter:
7 million people have pledged total of
ONE BILLION DOLLARS,
funding 69,000 creative projects.
Tell your story. Create a video.
Make a personal connection.
Set your goal & rally the troops!
Tell your story again & again.
Backers may be contributing to support you,
or may just be contributing for your rewards.
Either way: both get you closer to your goal!
