63% of Kickstarter campaigns fail. Do this one thing, and you'll be among the 37% who succeed.

The one thing is pre-launch. Ask any crowdfunding creator, and they will confirm that it is the key to success.

You will learn how to prepare for your first crowdfunding campaign and do pre-launch with a minimal budget by using personal efforts and delegating some work to others.

This book is for Kickstarter newbies and first-time creators. It will teach and show you how to collect potential backers early, in advance, and how to plan a Kickstarter campaign from start to finish with the aim of ensuring that you get fully funded.

You will understand the basics of crowdfunding, the main difference between the two most popular reward-based crowdfunding platforms: Kickstarter and Indiegogo, how to turn your idea, passion or skill into a product and how to evaluate if there's a market demand for it.

The core part of this book is about preparation for the crowdfunding campaign:

  • How to set crowdfunding goals and why it is important to set a low goal

  • How to analyze similar campaigns

  • How to define your target audience

  • How to gather your crowd using free methods

  • How to create a landing page that turns visitors into subscribers

  • What are the best tools to build landing pages

  • How to integrate your landing page with your mailing list

  • How to "warm-up" leads with an automated email sequence

  • How to engage your audience

  • How to run Facebook Ads to collect leads

  • How to use "smoke testing" method to see if someone buys your product

  • What is a pre-launch funnel and what stages it has

  • Conversion rates that you can expect

  • How to do media and influencer outreach

  • How to submit your video to viral video publishers

You will also learn and be exposed to best practices when it comes to selecting attractive project images, how to create a title that sells, how to build engaging project video and how to brainstorm ideas for your rewards.

Finally, the book explains how to launch and manage a Kickstarter campaign, when it's live:

  • Why project launch timing is important

  • The steps you need to do during the launch day

  • Prepare to refuse offers

  • Communication with backers (project updates and direct messages)

  • Stretch goals

  • Get traffic from Kickstarter ("Projects we love," trending, popularity rankings)

  • Last days of your project

  • Wrap-up and action plan

About the Author
Stanislovaitis, Vilius: - I launched my first Kickstarter campaign 5 years ago because I wanted to raise money for my first book and since then I have become really passionate about crowdfunding and Kickstarter. I interviewed other creators of successful crowdfunding campaigns that raised from a few thousand dollars to a few million, participated in a few projects as a collaborator and finally decided to share all this knowledge and experience in my book Your First Kickstarter Campaign: Step by Step Guide to Launching a Successful Crowdfunding Project and in my video course. There are many articles and courses that promise six-figures, but my goal is to show you the reality. The reality is that 67% of all successful Kickstarter campaigns raise up to 9999 USD. I believe that if your goal is within this range, there's a big chance that you will be able to gather your crowd without any budget. There's a dedicated section in my course Gather Your Crowd With No Budget which covers different methods to collect leads that don't cost you anything. If your goal is higher and you want to raise hundreds of thousands or millions, you will have to spend around 25-30% of your goal on paid advertising. There's a dedicated section Advanced Lead Generation and Nurturing Methods which explains how to use paid methods (such as Facebook ads) to generate leads and turn them into backers.
