Social media is a handy marketing tool, but you don’t own your social media community. The visibility of your posts is at the mercy of social media algorithms. In other words, just because you publish a status update, doesn’t mean people see it. Furthermore, if the gods of digital decide to fold a platform, that’s your hard-earned followers gone in a blink.

Preparing to run a crowdfunding campaign can feel daunting but Aotearoa New Zealand’s only arts crowdfunding platform, Boosted, is here to guide you through the entire process.

A stretch goal is an extension of your target, where you specify the extra funds required to get your art to the next level.

Seed donors are people who give at the very start of your campaign.
