Far from it, in fact. Even if a crowd funding project fails, it could potentially set the stage for bigger things down the road, as you then acquire contacts for future projects.

This is my second post, loving the community feel. I've been checking out some awesome projects.

Here's mine!

Really great advice and projects in this thread. I'll throw mine out for your consideration (for the beer fan). 29 days to go. Thanks!

That looks awesome Justin. Can I ask, where and how did you do your marketing. I'm having a bit of trouble directing traffic to my page.

It's basically been all Facebook shares from backers and internal kickstarter discovery (about 30% from Product Design discovery in my case). I'm trying everything I can to drive external traffic, but everyone I reach out to (blogs/websites) does not reply. I suspect they get inundated with requests like ours. It seems only the big stuff gets coverage.

I have also started to reach out to select audiences that might be interested in my project, but that is going slowly. I figured college students might be interested so I started contacting college newspapers, but have only got one success out of 50 attempts...

Any success/advice on that end?

I see ok. Well it is genuinely a good product and should I have the funds to back it towards the end I will. We got staff picked but that didn't really seem to garner any interest. We've had it shared a few times, we probably should have spent more time marketing it before we launched but oh well, live and learn! Thanks for the advice.

I would really appreciate if anyone could share mine. I don't have a lot of followers yet i understand if you don't want to share mine because i cannot do much for you yet. My friend has a fan twitter page with over 100 followers she would share on her site.

Hey all! Firstly I like the idea of helping each other out. Second, I would like to get in on this. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/13 ... /paramount Our band's facebook page has 700ish people we can share to as well as the members personal facebook friends. Hope you all are succeeding!

Seems like an interesting project--I´m just curious as to why you chose to remain anonymous? I only ask because it may be slightly off-putting to others that you are anonymous as people tend to want to know where their money/support is going and to whom. If you choose not to answer that too is fine, I was just curious about that as an outsider. Best of luck regardless! =]
