KickstarterForum.org

First off here is my new pjoject:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/primelandingpages/worlds-best-landing-page-software-super-easy-to-us


A few questions:
1. Am I allowed to advertise my KS on Facebook via ads...or would I make a post about it and boost my post?
2. I see some people build a landing page for their campaign. So would I have my FB ads/boost go to my landing page rather than my KS link?
3. What other methods are people using besides this forum, blogs and family/friends?

Thank you in advance
Ryan

Good luck with it being your first KS, but not sure if ultimately this is what people want. When I saw the campaign, I thought I went back in time about 10 years.

Also not sure your software would last compared to (free) online versions. I was a bit confused by the last tier too, is it unlimited over X years...you'll still support it over this time? Not sure what Flinn reference meant either (Tron?)

Thank you for your feedback

One of the reasons I need the funding is to make the back end a bit better.

I have ideas that can outmatch the competition.

As far as the "free" ones online, they are only free if you allow them to blast your site with ads or watermarks.

Also they do not include all the features that I do, which would require you to buy many more software programs.

The 10 years ago comment I understand but also understand that most companies and marketers are going away from full blown websites and building lead capturing landing pages.

Is my idea brand new to the market or an invention? No it's not but as a past affiliate marketer I feel this is a great all in one software that is much easier to use than what is out there

I really do appreciate the feedback!

Hi Ryan, Thanks for replying. I thought my comments may of been a bit too "raw" but it was based solely on selling via Kickstarter.

I don't think KS is the right platform for this, it's probably designed for an actual landing page site to sell these services.

Best of luck with it.

This post has been moved to the General Chat + Introduce Yourself section.

For your second question, I would have your Facebook ads linked to your landing page during pre-launch and then once your campaign goes live, start directing traffic to your KS page!

1. Yes you can advertise on Facebook. I would recommend boosting your post, as long as the post is important but if you plan on making multiple minor posts then promote the page so they can see everything on the page rather than just 1 post.

2. Take them to where your confident. If you think the sale will be made on the Kickstarter then do that but if you think you could design a more convincing landing page, then I recommend you go that rout.

3. Social media in general, and there are a lot of crowd funding agencies out there with varying prices, plans, and functions.

But my over all advice for running a campaign is to take your time and build your following. The only shortcut to a successful Kickstarter is a big pile of money, but even that doesn't guarantee anything. Hope I helped, good luck on your campaign
