Hi, my name is Philip and this is my first kickstarter campaign and my first time here on this forum (or any crowdfunding forum for that matter!
I am a graphic designer, photographer, and smartphone technician with a little knowledge of game system and computer repair. I Started working at a repair store and I was given a "screw mat" which is a magnetic mat that has a picture of a device with labels over the screws so you can disassemble a device without losing screws. I didn't like how it was made and it didnt help me repair a device, only to hold screws over the label. I still needed a tech to help me. This gave me an idea.
ScrewMat, is the leading magnetic mat in the world. Most repair stores use them. They make a million dollars in revenue a year. That gave me an idea. I was a graphic designer, photographer and now a technician. So I experimented with making my own "screw mat". After about a year of brainstorming how I could enter this market, I invented my current product called "repair x". It is a combination of every magnetic repair mat on the market into one product. I am currently marketing this to every repair store in the world to eventually overtake ScrewMat as the leading brand. Unlike ScrewMat, my product will be available for game systems and computers. ScrewMat is only for smartphones and tablets. Here is my kickstarter page:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/57 ... =user_menuI have having trouble getting it backers because I am new to social media marketing. I already have a handful of backers who are going crazy over my product saying that it "smokes ScrewMat". A CEO of a chain of repair stores and owns many other related companies wants my product to get funded very badly so he can use them in his network of repair companies. I also got a couple of distributors ready to buy this in bulk and re-sell them. I just need to get funding. Got any advice? thanks
