Hi Prew, Congratulations on launching your first crowdfunding campaign! I think if you have no social network for your business at all, you might need a year to build one up. Generally six months is good for getting your social media going and reaching out to people before you launch. You don't wan...
Hi Adam, I think you can totally launch on Kickstarter after selling on Amazon. Like you say, you are still in the early stages but Kickstarter backers also like it when you have working prototypes and manufacturing already sorted out.

Here's a pretty good list of tools you can use to reach out to potential backers before you launch: m Other ways you can prepare ...
Hi Shuze, I took a look at your Kickstarter page and I agree with what other people are saying. It look like you have a cool product with an app that gives a lot of useful information. I don't think I've seen any smart power bars like this yet! Your rewards are sort confusing though, and even though...
I saw this campaign (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/fo ... ks-lullaby) on the Kickstarter home page and had to check it out. I love Chuck Palahniuk, he Fight Club and Choke which both got movie adaptations too.
