Hey There! I completely understand where you are coming from and these issues are extremely common. Here are some suggestions regarding your campaign's promotion:
Have you given Reddit a go? While it isn't good 'Reddiquette' to post your campaign, letting people know about your product in niche related subreddits may build some interest and if anyone says they would like to back your campaign, kindly send them a private message with more information, then a link to your campaign.
There are several crowdfunding press release hosting websites that accept free submissions like Ayudos and CrowdfundingPR. The paid options generally aren't worth it but there is always the possibility of someone coming across your product there who is interested in backing it or publishing a story about it (if they are a journalist/blogger).
Launch a Headtalker campaign and make sure to promote that so that it goes off on the 3rd last day of your campaign. Headtalker is really easy to use and its free as well:
https://headtalker.com/Setting up a giveaway for the product using gleam.io can be a good iea as well (assuming you are able to give one away). For a recent campaign I hired a freelancer for $30 to submit the competition to 150 websites for me and we also promoted that amongst the current supporters network on social media. We managed to draw in 500 entries in 2 weeks which is great as you are able to promote your product to them via email. If you learn more about how gleam.io works you can actually give additional entries for people who view your Kickstarter campaign page which can be a good way to potentially draw in more backers.
If you have a press release I can offer you a free listing on our new crowdfunding blog website but that will not be live until mid-late next week. I will make sure to add your campaign to our tweet schedule as well.
One of the best things you could focus on now is getting publicity for the campaign. Send emails to journalists/bloggers and let them know what you are doing. There are are few different guides that you can find online for free regarding this, including a helpful writeup on the 4 hour work week website here:

I am available to assist you with your press outreach strategy if you'd like. Feel free to reply here, send me a pm, or email me using the email in my signature below.
Thanks mate! All the best with the campaign
