With everyone who has used BackersHub, I would like to know about the mailing list of 10,000 journalists that they give you. Was this even useful? and what level did you buy that you thought was helpful? You can email me privately or directly if you don't want to reveal here. Thanks. Seriously thinking about using them.

I have used Backers Hub for my latest Kickstarter campaign for the HEXX. The minute the news letter went out pledges began coming in. The results were well worth the investment and Dwight was very helpful. Dwight made several suggestions during the campaign that resulted in additional pledges. I able to strongly recommend Backers Hub. Ray Palermo

Just curious on when Backers Hub post the news on your project? Have you used any other promotions?

My Experience with BackersHub:

Note: I have never met anyone at BackersHub, I am not receiving anything in exchange for this review. This is just my experience I want to share with you.

Package: Hardcore Bundle ($497)
Day 1 with BackersHub: 32 orders
Day 2 with BackersHub: 15 orders

Removing 6 sales each day to what I have been receiving on average that is 35 orders at an average pledge amount of $50 that is $1,750 in total sales and $1,253 return on my investment.
Also worth noting Kickstarter had been giving us low visibility for the last few days and with BackersHub we were able to be a "popular" project and now have much more visibility on Kickstarter.
Every campaign is different but I have a pretty niche product, actually very niche product. If you are looking to give your campaign a boost I would recommend them. I was referred to them. BackerHub will do their part in driving relevant traffic to your page. What happens from there is your part.

Hope this helps. To confirm everything I said my link is below and you can use Kicktraq.com to verify stats. I used them October 27th

Great replies here! Again, wish we'd since this one before our last week. Looks like a great one to try.
In our case, we reached out to them and all the spaces are already filled for the email list week.
That seems like where the real value is, so two part question:

1. Has anyone who has just done the Facebook only option had success?

2. Are you aware of any other email list like this to reach potential backers?

Thanks!

It seems you have to be very carefull when using a firm to help promote your project, I'm trying to figure out how to pre promote my project and did not know it was going to be so difficult. I thought the hard part was coming up with a great invention and video.

We participated in Black Friday - Cyber Monday promotions with Dwight and BackersHub this last weekend. Thanks to their efforts, we had the most successful post-crowdfunding promotion ever!
I wish we had known about BackersHub when we were trying to fund the TekTuk - we would have definitely done better than just squeaking by!
We will DEFINITELY be using BackersHub when we launch our campaign for the TeTuk mini next year!

I'm also interested to know whether the Facebook only thing is any good.

We're going to try Backershub. Which package do you suggest?

I have heard about backershub but never used them so far, They also have a good facebook page.

The landing seems good and nice to see some positive feedback about them here.

thanks,
