Three tips: my first Kickstarter Campaign for my sailing channel
Hi! I’m continuing, separate from Season 2, the Pacific Solo Captain’s Log, where I will record and upload simple videos about what I am learning.
This week I have three tips for those who are thinking of launching their own Kickstarter Campaign. I’ve just finished my campaign on the platform, and it was a steep learning curve — as is almost everything about Pacific Solo and the last twelve months! Oh and i made a slight mistake on my handwritten notes I showed regarding the breakdown of 5 dollar backers. In fact there were 11 but the second reference to 5 dollar should have said 1 dollar. Despite asking many people to sponsor 1 dollar, most chose higher amounts and only four chose one dollar. You can tell I am a tad confused when reading my own notes lol
Please stay tuned for the next Season 2 episode, which is is coming next week, where I am preparing for my first multi-day voyage along the Japanese Coast.
