We launched our Kickstarter campaign
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tanyapalazzo/the-happiness-is-project last Monday and got off to a decent start. After reaching out to our 700+ connections on FB, Instagram, Twitter, and LinkedIn we secured $5,100 in pledges from 69 backers.
The Happiness Is Project, is a cross-country photography and storytelling journey focused on happiness. With our three year old daughter and black labrador, we’ll be criss-crossing the country in a travel trailer looking for the happiest places and people in the U.S. We are documenting those who seek, found, or hold the keys to happiness, and all the in-betweens. You can see a sample at:
http://potluckhappiness.com/happinessis. We started this journey with the development of our blog, Potluck Happiness, which is dedicated to all things that bring greater joy, health, and happiness into our readers’ lives.
We may have set a lofty goal, but were also very diligent in identifying exactly how much we needed to support this project and bring it to life.
With 20 days left, we have ALOT of work to do, but we aren't giving up. We have written press releases and submitted them to local media and various blogs, websites, and Influencer's. Unfortunately, those efforts aren't paying of. YET.
I understand that the concept may not resonate with everyone, but we believe in it and will find a way to succeed.
I welcome and appreciate everyone's feedback and support!
Have an excellent day!
Joey of Potluck Happiness
