The Funding Game of Kickstarter

 

The pre-launch Kickstarter page for Hilda & Richie is up so make sure you sign up to be notified when we launch.

Anyway, as I've established before, the goal of the Kickstarter is to raise a sum of US$3,000 to print and distribute copies of Hilda & Richie, my first picture book.  From the launch in the early morning hours of Wednesday January 6, 2021 to its end late Friday night on February 5, 2021, we must meet or beat that goal.

There are some milestones that need to be achieved in order to increase the success rate of getting the Kickstarter funded.

By about 10PM Central Time on launch day January 6, it is imperative that we hit at least 5% funded, which is $150.

By about 10PM Central Time on Friday January 8, it is vital to hit at least 10% funded, which is $300.

By about 10PM Central Time on Saturday January 16 (about ten days into the campaign), we must get to one-third funding, about 33%, which would be roughly $990.

According to my Kickstarter notes, the higher the funding we get, the higher the chances are of meeting our final goal of $3,000.

To that end, I've got a number of rewards planned to entice backers as well as a strategy I'm still outlining to promote the Kickstarter heavily.  Again, that is starting now with these blog posts and the sharing of the project's pre-launch link.

Stay tuned to this blog for more news.
