Any Advice - I'm in the Final Hours

Hello everyone. I am 90% funded w/ 63 hours to go. It's going to be close. Does anyone have any advice on bringing this hot sauce train into the station? I think I have ran a good campaign and it's been like pulling teeth to get backers all the way. That's probably normal but I'm running out of ideas and time. Here's the link:

Thanks in advance for your help

Few ideas:

- You could do an update saying that if X backers raised their pledges by X amount, you would be funded. I have seen other campaigns do this before and gone over their goal.

- Local event? Fundraising dinner or cocktails?

- Picking up the phone and calling people in your social network or previous business connections?

- Asking existing backers to share the campaign on facebook in one last hurrah.
