Hi Everyone,

A quick introduction: I am Marc from the Netherlands, relatively new to crowdfunding and currently in the middle of our Kickstarter campaign with a good 27 days still to go.

We would like to raise €20,000 with our campaign: Robusto: 70s Futuristic Titanium Watch. Stronger than Steel.. We are going pretty good, so far 121% funded (we got 100% in 24 hours) :)

Any feedback is appreciated!

Marc

Hi Marc,

Congratulations on your successful campaign! You're doing very well and you still have time to get more pledges in before you're campaign is over. It might be your first time on Kickstarter but your campaign looks great and your watch has a cool, unique style to it. It looks like you've done a great job getting your campaign covered by the media and blogs.

What are some of the resources you used to learn how to run a great crowdfunding campaign? Great job and hope the rest of the campaign goes well!

Hi,

Thank you :) We started working with Giles from Hyperstarter a few weeks before our project went live. Together we did Twitter campaigns and contacted a lot of media/blogs. At the moment we are running FaceBook ads and keep Twitter and Instagram moving. We have built a redirection layer to be able to track all traffic with a FaceBook pixel and with that we can retarget our visitors later on (we figured most people will need to come across our watch a few times before buying). So far so good :) We picked up a lot of ideas from working with Giles, studied successful and failed campaigns and use some common sense :) Surely we already run into things that we would do differently on the next project (practice makes perfect)

Its great to see people manage to hit their goal and start their own businesses with Kickstarter and Indiegogo :) Really happy for you guys! We're launching our campaign in 2 weeks, hope we can generate some buzz just like you did!
