On average, campaigns that reach their goal raised ⅓ of their funds within the first ¼ of their campaign lifetime.*
Start with your
Team: Get your team to pledge a small amount. It's like
baristas priming the tip jar-patrons tip more in there is already
money in the tin!
Establish Credibility and Legitimacy: By raising funds from your team right when you start, visitors from outside your team will be more willing to support your campaign.
Create Your Viral Loop: A viral loop is a self-fuelling cycle of users generating more users-basically, you want to set up ways for your funders to share with other funders.
