How crowdfunding works
You have a really nice idea...
...which magically gets funded!

How crowdfunding really works
You plan!
What is your idea, Who will want to
back it and how do I reach them?
You work!
Put you project together, make a
video, start speaking to people
You launch
You push for an intensive period to
ensure everyone sees the project
and funds it!

Now we know who we want to reach - how do we reach them.
1. What channels do we have ( email, social media etc )?
2. What message do we want to put out?
Your Marketing Plan
Creating your project
Build a team - have roles and a clear
idea of who is doing what...
Check the project with your team and
crowdfunder before launch
Warm up emails - set the date - tell
everyone it is coming...
Have a launch event - invite everyone
along - don’t let them leave without
giving.
Give everyone something to share on
facebook - ask them directly to
share...
Line up partners to share on specific
dates - chase them…..
Have some large donations setup
before launchHave and action for each day and
keep updating backers.
