    Anyone else notice an increase in pledge cancellations?

    We've launched a somewhat short campaign to be able to ensure delivery in 2018 and over the weekend we noticed a trend of backers cancelling their pledges. Which led me to believe that something was off in our campaign page but i cant seem to find anything? I tried to personally reach out to those backers and only a few replied saying that its the holidays and money is tight.

    Has anyone with a live campaign in december experienced this? I'd love to get your input on our campaign page and whether there's anything we can do to improve it. Thanks!

    It happens...but did you use a "backer" type service as that might explain it.

    In terms of the campaign page, you should focus your time on the early birds - perhaps move the early bird image to the top of the page and explain the discounts. Look to the people who have supported you and ask them for a "push" with your link added.

    If we can help further, feel free to get in touch.
