How To Choose Good Options For Your Crowdfunding Campaign


Crowdfunding is increasingly becoming the “go to” method for funding start-up products and services or even improving existing ones, especially in the world of 3D Printing. If you aren’t familiar with Crowdfunding, it is simply a method of raising money for a product or service by allowing anyone to contribute in exchange for some sort of preferential treatment if and when the funding goal is met. Some campaigns keep the funds even if the goal is not met and in turn still deliver the rewards, albeit it usually takes a longer time for you to receive those rewards, while other campaigns will return your money if they don’t reach their funding goal. Most campaigns even have a “feel good” option that allows you to support the campaign with a small amount even though you may not receive a reward in return outside of feeling good about it; some even go further by offering to put your name on their website to show that you supported the campaign. If you have a 3D Printing business this is good way to gain exposure for a nominal cost as these options usually cost between $1 and $10 US dollars. Even though by choosing to participate in Crowdfunding you may have to wait up to a few months for the manufacturer/provider to deliver, the benefits are usually worth the wait.
