Running a successful crowdfunding campaign requires many skills. But you don’t have to do it all by yourself. In fact, you’re more likely to succeed if you don’t fly solo, because team driven campaigns raise 38% more than solo campaigns.

Before you start planning your crowdfunding campaign you need to know a few important things, like...

· What’s my funding target?

· How many people do I need to give?

· How many people do I need to ask to give?

· How often should I ask them?

· How long should my campaign be?

· When should I run my campaign?

Luckily, we can help you answer these questions. 

Events can raise awareness of your campaign, raise money, reward your core crowd and create opportunities for media coverage.

But they can be time-consuming to organise, so if you can piggyback on existing events where you can make an ask, or have a supporter ask for you, even better.

Social media fuels discovery and discussion. “Saw it on the gram” is the new word of mouth. Encourage your social networks to inspire a wider group of givers by giving them content worth sharing.
