Did you know that less than half of all crowdfunding campaigns fail? That means they do not reach their target money goal. And the small business owner must find a new way to raise funds to grow the business.

I've read over 200 scholarly journals and research consudcted on crowdfunding. Plus, I interviewed 6 small business owners personally s part of my doctoral thesis. I gained plenty of insight on how to design, plan, and implement a crowdfunding camapaign that will help you succeed.

The topics in this course include:

-Choosing the right platform for you (Kickstarter, Indiegogo, other)

-Choosing the right rewards and dollar amounts

-How to create a budget for your campaign

-Writing and creating the project description and biography

-Creating videos

-The Marketing Plan

-Business Operations

-Building lasting customers after the campaign finishes

Disclaimer: I do not guarantee results as you are designing your own campaign. I do hope that you learn about the ins and outs of crowdfunding, setting appropriate goals, and how to run a campaign to help ensure you reach your goal.
