Good insights. I kicked off my project on Kickstarter on Nov 20,
http://kck.st/1xvx4Bh . It passed 25% of the goal at the end the third day. I can see the backing is slowing down a little. Do I need to worry about it?
If I set the goal as the sum of all the resources I put in, it'll be much higher than I put on Kickstarter. I did some prelaunch activities, set up a project on Pitchfuse and Prefundia where I got a total of 12 followers in about 30 days period.
I set 45 days as I think the holiday seasons may delay some people's activities on Kickstarter, most people will spend more time with family and friends. I hope that will work out.
Any feedback on my project is highly appreciated.
