13 days and 49% to my goal

Hey guys I just want to post an update on my kickstarter as well as ask for some idea's for getting the word out. Here is the link to my kickstarter https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/985727377/whimzical-whizkerz-charms-and-buttons.

I have been kicking myself for making my original goal $360, but I thought that it was a low enough goal that it would be easily made and surpassed. I could have made my original goal $180 and only offered 5 different charm options and made my first stretch goal $360 and then offered all 10 charm designs, but hind site is always 20/20. Also I have completely run out of places to share my kickstarter. I have messaged all of my friends personally and many of them are sharing my kickstarter as well. I even passed out fliers at my last craft sale and posted fliers at different places around town.

I also have a few friends that said they were going to pledge, but still have not and I do not want to bother them about it until it gets close to the end of the kickstarter. I'm just kind of lost on what else to do.

Thanks,
Holly T. :3

So, like that guy in that commercial from a few years back, you've reached the end of the Internet, huh?

Almost there Holly! You can do it!! If it comes down to it you can re-post on Facebook. You will most likely make your goal.

You mentioned Facebook what about Twitter and/or Pinterest? Both , I believe, are great ways to help spread the word for your kind of project. Links to our pages are below.

Another really cool way to get cheap marketing is Fiverr. For $5 you can get your project Tweeted out to thousands of people or posted on facebook by people with thousands of friends. Link below.

Hello,

Yes I have used it and yes It did bring traffic to my page. I was happy enough with it that I will use it again. Don't expect miracles but if you just need a bit of an exposure boost, for $5 it might be worth it. As with anything of this nature do your research.

Please let us know how it goes! I am considering it as well. The Pinterest idea seems great to. Sometimes just posting a Facebook status that updates everyone can remind people who may have forgotten (I got a $25 pledge that way just this morning).
