Kickstarter for the Independent Creator: A Practical and Informative Guide to Crowdfunding

Having successfully funded four Kickstarters for her comic Boston Metaphysical Society, writer/creator, Madeleine Holly-Rosing shares her very specific and practical strategies for running a successful crowdfunding campaign with a goal of under 10K in this second expanded edition. Ms. Holly-Rosing has also taught this as a class at Pulp Fiction Books and Comics in Culver City, as well as lectured at Scriptwriters Network and Dreamworks Animation, as well as other institutions.

The second edition of this book covers choosing a platform, social media, public relations, preparing your email list, interviews/podcasts, reaching out at Comic Cons and other events, crunching those numbers, avoiding postage pitfalls as well as developing your Kickstarter homepage, pre-launch strategy, campaign strategy and fulfillment. The book is designed for individual creators who cannot afford to hire a team or a PR person.
