STEP-BY-STEP
Before you embark on a crowdfunding campaign you must:
1) Choose a platform after careful consideration
2) Realize you are taking on a separate and intensive stand-alone marketing campaign
3) Be willing to put money into your book and campaign FIRST, and then use the campaign to pay yourself back.
The best way to research is to look at those who have done it right!
Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls (Kickstarter)
Amanda Palmer (Patreon)
Choose your platform and emulate those who have been successful there!
P.S. In our Little Black Book of Marketing Templates, we have a complete Kickstarter template from a real-life author who raised over $8k for her self-published book (her original goal was $6k!) Feel free to use her strategy to meet YOUR crowdfunding goals, too.
