    New to Crowdfunding, any help is appreciated!

    by AranciniAmore » Tue Jul 15, 2014 1:58 am

    Hello everyone! I'd like to thank all of the contributors of this forum for posting all of the helpful things I've been reading. I think the biggest mistake I made, was that before I launched my kickstarter campaign, no one knew about it. It would have helped to spread the word first so that I could get a nice boost in pledges right at the beginning.

    I would like to welcome any and all help that people can offer me with my venture. My kickstarter campaign has me excited that my dream can actually come to fruition, however it's kind of stressful seeing a 0 for so long! I just recently got funded $100 and I got so excited. The feeling I felt can't even be described in words. I would love to experience driving my food truck in and around town so that people can experience what they've been missing for the past 2 years.

    Please check out my campaign and let me know if something should be changed because it'll help my cause. Thank you so much in advance!


    Please help fund my Food Truck campaign on Kickstarter! Thanks! :)

    Your doing great, I have done a couple KickStarter campaigns and if you are able I would recommend putting a video up on the project. It doesn't have to be high quality or even that long, just something personal talking about yourself and the project. Good luck with your funding goal!

    You figured out a big part of it right there. You need to find your target market of donors, construct a marketing plan around them, and then build hype for the project.

    At this point just stay personable with your users and communicate with them. Keep them involved, entertained, and motivated to see your project succeed so that they might invite others.

    My wife and I are about to move to Italy. While visiting earlier this year, Arancini were possibly my favorite thing.
