how much time does it take to run a crowdfunding campaign?
TRANSCRIPT
The amount of time you need to devote to your campaign will depend on the type of CrowdFunding you do
For a Rewards based CrowdFunding campaign
you need to set aside around 120 days
for planning, promotion, engaging and following up with your supporters
If you already have a crowd - great!
If you still have to build your crowd then you will need to add on more time
before launching your campaign
Take the first 60 days to set up and publicise your
CrowdFunding campaign
Your ‘crowd’ needs to know about your campaign long
before you launch
The first 60 days are the most important phase of your campaign
Past project creators often say they wish they had spent more time planning the launch sequence
of their campaigns
Set aside another 30 days for the actual duration of the campaign
You need to work hard during this phase to maintain interest throughout the course of
the campaign
Take the last 30 days to ensure that whatever you promised during the campaign is delivered to all of your
supporters at the end of the campaign
This means that for your campaign to be successful all of your
time, effort and energy will have to be devoted to managing your campaign
Managing a CrowdFunding campaign is pretty much a full time job
It is best if you can get a team of people to work with you on your
campaign. This way you can share some of the work with others
You and your team must be seen to be fully behind your project
by answering all questions and providing frequent updates
on your project
Ultimately your supporters will want to get to know you personally
They want to feel that you have the passion and enthusiasm
to make your project work
