Hey all,

My Kickstarter, Mount Dream, just reached 15% of its goal.

From what I hear, the first 15% is the hardest hurdle ... has anyone found this to be the case?

Thanks for the support, let me know if I can help anyone meet or surpass their goal

Hey, congrats on making it to 15%! My experiences have been that getting to any number can be a struggle, but maybe I'm alone there. With my first kickstarter I got to 15% really easily because I had a following already, but with Meow Mondays I needed to start with all new fans, so it's been a difficult road. I'm anticipating my last 30% will be most difficult (hoping I'm wrong). I'm almost to 50% right now with 2 weeks to go.

It's funny, I feel like the project I have up now (Meow Mondays) is a better project that will appeal to a larger crowd - it's even a staff pick - but no one seems to be finding it. I feel like I had an easier time getting my first project funded, and that one had a smaller appeal (I thought) but it seems like I had an easier time getting it funded with time to spare. So, I'm not sure if there is a way to predict what kickstarter will do or how to predict how funds will be raised.

Good luck with your project, and congrats again! I hope you meet your goal.
