In my case, what got me into crowdfunding was the fact of having a lot of rejections from publishing housses.
Finally, I did manage to have a successful crowdfunding campaign in my country, Spain, and then, thanks to having my book published, a publishing house was interested in my work and offered me the chance of publishing the rest of my books with them.
Today I can tell that I have published 5 books already, and all of them have sold 3000 units each. The last one having a second printing on the go...
After that, I decided to use crowdfunding to get funds for my own coaching card game and it went quite well too...
I have more projects around the corner and you all will read about them soon if you care to support them
Greetings and thanks for this space.
