We're in "sweet jeebus we launch in a little over a day" mode right now, and I'm checking my Campaign toolbox over twice to make sure we've got the right mix.

A question: Has anyone used Streak, and if so what was their opinion?

About the page:

The video headline has the same image as the first image on the description page.

You may wish to consider changing (or swapping) the first image to (same as the last one on page)

https://s3.amazonaws.com/ksr/assets/002 ... _large.jpg

Gives the same message - takes up half the space - and it's DIFFERENT than the video.

Thanks, Johnnie, The feedback is definitely appreciated! I'd been thinking about changing that first image as well and you've convinced me.

I've used it to try to track email opens. I was going to write a blog post actually on them, but the results I was getting when I was testing were inconsistent. It worked the first time I used it, but then after it didn't for some reason. Tried it multiple times.

I haven't used their other functionality, just the email open tracking.

Thanks @sbriggman, that's good to know.

I'm experimenting with it a bit, but it's single-track pipelines bum me out. You can have multiple ones, but the road is inherently branching for crowdsourcing. Someone might turn into a backer, or a booster, or a sponsor, or some other form of relationship.

I 'like being able to see when someone reads the email, but I haven't yet gone much beyond that. If I had another week before launch I'd probably play with the functionality more, but I need to be playing the instrument not learning it at this point

I've used Streak (outside of the context of Kickstarter campaigns) and found it decently useful/reliable for tracking whether or not emails were opened. I imagine it would provide piece of mind if sending a lot of emails to bloggers and possible press leads; it will let you know that your email was opened but that's not exactly an actionable piece of info.

This post has been moved to the Kickstarter and Crowdfunding Questions Only (Strict) section.

It's useful but make sure to turn off the constant notifications as they are super distracting.
