Introduction to Crowdfunding and Popular Platforms
​

Crowdfunding is a method of fundraising in which an entrepreneur or a business owner raises funds for a project or a product by soliciting small investments from a large number of people, typically via the internet. Some of the popular crowdfunding platforms for makers include Kickstarter, Indiegogo, GoFundMe, and Patreon.
Why Crowdfunding is a Powerful Marketing Channel for Startups

Launching a product on a crowdfunding platform provides a startup with several benefits.
  • It allows them to test the demand for their product in the market before investing heavily in production.
  • It also helps to build a fan base for the product before it is even available.
  • Crowdfunding platforms also provide makers with an opportunity to connect with their customers and get feedback on their product, which can help them improve it before launching it in the market.
How to Successfully Launch a Product on a Crowdfunding Site

To successfully launch a product on a crowdfunding site, makers need to create a compelling and informative campaign page that includes a detailed description of the product, high-quality images and videos, and clear information about the project's goals and timeline. Makers also need to set an achievable funding goal and offer incentives or rewards to backers to encourage them to invest in the project.
Considerations for Startups When Launching a Product on a Crowdfunding Site

When launching a product on a crowdfunding site, makers need to bear in mind the following considerations:
  • Set a realistic funding goal
  • Create an engaging campaign page that highlights the benefits of the product
  • Promote the campaign on social media and other relevant platforms to build awareness and attract backers
  • Provide regular updates to backers to keep them engaged and informed about the project's progress
  • Be prepared to deliver on the promises made to backers in terms of quality, timeline, and incentives.
Crowdfunding provides startups with a powerful marketing channel to launch their products and build a fan base before it even hits the market. With careful planning and execution, makers can successfully launch their product on a crowdfunding site and take their business to the next level.
