@vatman - Matthew, you're actually ahead of the game. Nice! Most successful kickstarters get started early. The 90 days before the kickstarter begins is full of data mining for relevant blogs, authors, and related marketing strategies from other kickstarters. That's just the start. Afterwards email ...

@BumptoBaby, you've got 4 backers in a few days. Congratulations! Now that you've got the campaign up and running, with a funding goal like yours, you'll need to target viral or influential sources.

Like everyone else, congrads too! Use your energy to inspire others on the forums here with some first-hand experience tips.

Also, a quick tip: when commenting on another page, you should create your own company page first for your kickstarter. Make sure to add a post with a link to your kickstarter project. Then, use the user drop down in the top right of Facebook to sign-in as the company page, instead of your user acco...

I'd also recommend Sell Hack, it's a chrome extension that automates the lookup of an email address for a certain reporter, or founder of a company. Has been a godsend for startup promotion, rather than doing it manually with Google queries.
