We created a FB event, but I'm not sure is made much difference. Even though we called it a virtual event, no actual event, many people were confused and said they couldn't come, etc. Also, we created the event through the business FB page instead of the personal page. I think if we had used the per...

Thanks for the fancy badge sbriggman! Feels good to have that! cschwirz27 - sure! We got some good advice reading through this forum and many of the various tip articles, so keep reading!

I'm not sure if there is any engagement with my group of contacts, but we'll see! We continue to push on Facebook posts, in all three accounts (business and two personal). My w...

We have 12 days to go, 103 backers, 37% funded

We've had 570 video plays with 61% completed. Seems like this is a pretty good completion rate!

And it looks like we have 367 Facebook shares (no Twitter shares)

(Sorry, that table did not post the way it looked when I was writing the response - it took all the spacing away! It is of course: Referrer, type, # of pledges, % of pledged, pledged)
