I would like to win a ticket to this event because I think crowdfunding can completely alter how we think about financing and its role in the creative process. It’s a way to reach new audiences who might have never consider donating while making them feel invested in the process. Not just that, but it eschews traditional funding models to create opportunities for creative types who might have never been able to navigate the old-school world of fundraising.
For those reasons, it would be cool to learn more about crowdfunding and how I can make it work for me as I work on creative projects of my own. Thanks!
I’d love to win a ticket to learn more about crowdfunding! I’m currently planning my Indiegogo campaign to launch my makeup company. For me, it’s really a test for market viability, pre-selling, and marketing; finding and engaging an audience. So, I would love to hear more from am expert. Thanks!
CAMPAIGN PLANNING will help what ever you get into
I’d love the chance to attend! I’ve tried starting a few businesses and am still looking for the right idea for me. I’ll take all the advice, motivation and help I can get. I’m looking to blend my creative and business sides
