I am finding reporters don't want to talk about just the kickstarter. What is the human interest story or what is the angle they are already covering. Reply with your project and I'll take a look. I have some media contacts I could potentially share

Here is mine, please let me know what you think:

Baby BiBl

Hi, for several years we have been working with students to create a low-cost, fun, engaging and durable 'robot family'. Something that could be replicated across homes and schools and libraries. So we got some really smart engineers and a little bit of money together and we built 7 prototypes. All with the same general function. Actually 8 if you count the robotic teddy bear.

What we came up with is this little guy - Baby BiBli. It's a 3 wheel, autonomous robot that helps with autism. We got some press but I am not sure if the conversion on the page itself is good enough. What should I expect? (pledges/views).

Any suggestions and help appreciated. You back mine I'll back yours and we'll get these projects going!

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

It depends on which reporters you're talking to. If they are interested in your niche, I don't see why they wouldn't mention you!

I'm not sure about your campaign to be honest. Anything robot related is cool, it looks great. But I'm confused...

So you can create your own robot, you supply all the tech? How come there's a floating robot head around? I think the sketches should be taken off the page too, I know what you're trying to convey but potential backers are looking for something more visually appealing I feel.

It looks a bit sloppy to be honest. The campaign page could look more professional with a better video and set of images. Also, get rid of the tshirt...it's not worth having as a tier.

Show off that you can get a functioning robot for $99 too.

Who have you promoted this to?
