Crowdfunding: Kickstarter, Indiegogo, and Ecommerce with CrowdCrux | Crowdfunding Demystified

We all get overwhelmed sometimes, but do you have the drive and the passion to do something about it?

If yes, then today’s episode of Crowdfunding Demystified will really resonate with you. Meet Ryan Kulp, an entrepreneur who turns out to be pretty slick with crowdfunding, too. His recent campaign raised nearly $160K from more than 1,300 backers.

Hear about Ryan’s incredible story of how he created the TRMNL, a way for anyone to stay connected and focused without being overwhelmed. This 7.5” e-ink display screen connects directly to the apps that you care about while minimizing distractions, reducing blue light exposure, and avoiding “doom scrolling”.

As a software wiz, Ryan used his self-taught hardware skills to go from an idea to a hugely successful campaign with 20 working prototypes in less than 8 months.

But it hasn’t all been a bed of roses, and Ryan gets very candid about challenges along the way. With host Salvador Briggman, you’ll discover breakthrough strategies that can radically reinvent your campaign, including:

• How to create a killer prelaunch campaign

• The importance of sharing the story of your product

• How to make the most of Kickstarter

• Ways to continue success with future campaigns or an online store

…and so much more.

Don’t rely on computer algorithms to bring in the money. Get ready to learn the tools you need to unleash your passion on the world.
