The Story
We launched our campaign on June 9th and we're coming done near the finish line and it's time to make a final push. Our $35,000 goal will help fund our entire first line of athletic apparel using patented NASA technology. It'll be interesting to see if we make it, but we're pushing until the last second.

Where We Advertised
Think of any tech- and Kickstarter-related website... we've tried it. From e-mailing 100+ sites and being active on social media, we've tried it all so far. I recommend Thunderclap if you can get a hold of a large social media influence. Places like this forum are also great for experience and learning the ins and outs - it's certainly helped.

What's Left
Keep pushing...

I hope you guys make it! Any tips on emailing that you found to be effective?

We know that most of the people reading it really don't want to be bothered by it so it's all about catering to them: value proposition, finding out their interests/posts to gear your message toward them specifically, keeping it short and simple, giving them resources/materials (don't make them have to find the information), and being a bit of a pest if you have to. Honestly, while those are usually effective, we haven't had much stick. The better bet is calling local news outlets - they have to respond when you're waiting on the other end rather than just blowing off an e-mail.

Wanted to share an update - 6 days left.

We've e-mailed our list again and started a countdown on our social media accounts to try and build some final hype - they can see the money tracker as we go on. We had a big donation today and brought in nearly $600 alone in one day. We know we need to do better than that though.

36% of the way there.

Here is our Twitter post to give you an idea of how we're laying it out.

I don't do sports regularly, but having this would be motivate me so much
