Don't spam journalists with a generic press release. Your time is much better spent thoroughly preparing each individual email to the media person (reading articles the journalist has written, reading about the publication or website etc.). Begin your email with a compliment and try to make the journalist's life as easy as possible.

The rewards should be as minimum as possible. like a reward of $10 is more attractive than $25

True ! It's take much more time to do it but journalists aren't stupid, they so when a mail is a copy/paste, and a individual email.

HUSTLE YOUR SUPPLIERS, NOT YOUR SUPPORTERS

One thing I learnt from my project was to try and get the very best value for my supporters as possible.

All I needed to do was hustle with my suppliers and get them better value. it helped us get far more supporters because our overall costs were so low compared to how they could have been

Helped us massively.

All of the tips I've seen here I'll definitely vouch for!
I stupidly chose to start my campaign in the middle of a bodybuilding comp prep diet, and my brain was frazzled and I made a whole bunch of little errors. Thankfully I had a backer who recognised the errors and contacted me to fix them within a few hours of starting it.

Make perks simple and easy to understand. You can't change them if somebody pledged, When you set rewards, think about new perks you may add later as well.

Amazing tips just want to say thank you!!!

Actually a tip I learnt is to submit your Ks page as a draft, then edit and check if after as you still have to launch it.
