I'm running a Kickstarter for my children's book Everyone in the World is Special but You. Having never done this before, I'm not sure how to get people interested in supporting my project. I've sent emails to some blogger sites and I've posted links on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. I have a group of a dozen or so close friends also sharing information with their circles, but I just feel like it isn't enough.

I want to do everything I can to make this Kickstarter as successful as it can be. Since I'm only about 12 hours in with 4 backers, any suggestions on how I can get off on the right foot? I don't want to be a Morgan McPhail.

Welcome to the forum. This is the same challenge that many campaign creators deal with. In my experience, it comes down to trial and error, seeing what works, and learning as much as you can and then executing on it. Just have to keep working hard and making sure to reach at least 25-30% in the first week Here's a good place to start: Get a crash course in internet marketing: http://www.crowdcrux.com/get-a-crash-co ... resources/

how I can get off on the right foot?

Seems like a great project!
