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. 

Your campaign pitch (or your campaign description) is arguably one of the most vital parts of your Boosted campaign.It’s your proposal, it’s your message and it’s your chance to drive home the essence and importance of your work.

Remember, not everyone you ask to give will give, so even a modest crowdfunding campaign aiming to raise a few thousand dollars requires getting in front of thousands of people.Unless you’re famous in your own right or have strong social influence, it’s unlikely you’ve got immediate access to a network of this size. Here’s where PR comes to the party.

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.
