I'm trying to figure out how to promote the kickstarter for my new book, 'Rise Like a Phoenix.' I know it's only been a day, but my last kickstarter failed (miserably) and for the life of me, I couldn't figure out why. I've promoted on Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and etc. I'm out of ideas. Would anyone be interested in cross promotion, and or tell me what is wrong with my Kickstarter?

This is my dream of publishing this novel, along with the other two books that I've written in the series, I can't let this dream die.

Checked out your campaign, FB page, and twitter. First you opened your FB page Dec 20th, probably should've started it back in July. Generally you want to start 3-6 months before your campaign to try and build a FB audience and generate more buzz. With that being said your doing everything on your FB page correctly. Posting everyday, your post content is in your niche and about your book. Keep doing what your doing there. Every once in awhile pay for a promoted post and it should help get you more likes. Even 5-10 dollars a month will help.

Another thing your campaign is lacking, is your story. Tell the story about yourself, who are you, where do you come from, why is this so important to you? All that should be on your Kickstarter page as well. Your story is about veterans and the military, contact local news there in Tulsa and explain what your doing and what to accomplish.

Your campaign lacks a video, On Fiverr.com you can purchase white board videos for 5 bucks. They will draw you a 30 second video or so on a whiteboard and you can use it for your campaign. Also on Fiverr.com you can pay people to do guerrilla marketing. They will take flyers and deliver them to local malls about your campaign. You could do the same! Go to the mall, dress to impress and hand out flyers. Generate a QR code that links directly to your Kickstarter page and put it on your flyer. And when your deliver flyers, dont just do 50 and be done. Think big, and go big!

Good Luck!

Hey, thanks for the heads up about not including my story. I can't believe I forgot that. I've since edited and updated my project and I will seriously consider using a video from Fiverr. Thanks again for your ideas!

@cwhitfieldjr be sure to kick it forward and provide some feedback on other people's campaigns also in other threads . You can also ask them to provide feedback on yours in exchange.
