Hi,

At this stage could you try to engage friends, family, colleagues, etc to get some momentum going?

Cheers,

Don

Thanks! I would ask new backers to message me and mention their referrer's username (for instance: donatien-garnier), I would then message the referrer with a confirmation message.

Hi everyone, First of all it's been great reading through this forum, it's nice being able to learn from other people's crowdfunding experiences! I am currently running a campaign for a development board that makes it easy to use Near Field Communication ( http://bit.ly/micronfcboard/ ). As you can ...

I found that getting in a sub-category that is well targeted for your project (and hopefully not overcrowded with other projects) improved visibility (for instance we changed our category from hardware to DIY electronics during the project).

Great article!
My own experience so far:
- Providing a press release attached to the email + short summary within the body of the email helps
- Targeting specific audiences first works better
- The more money has been pledged so far, the likelier the journalist is to reply!

I was sceptical about the launching on Monday is best idea, till I came across this website that analyses posts that trend on reddit based on day of publication:
