Overview of a Crowdfunding Timeline & Strategy

You have an idea—a product, a project, a creative vision. But how do you bring it to life? That’s where crowdfunding comes in. Learning Lab is designed to help you navigate the ins and outs of launching a successful crowdfunding campaign.

This course is your roadmap to funding your next big thing, whether you’re an artist, entrepreneur, or innovator. You’ll gain the tools, insights, and strategies to craft a compelling campaign, engage your audience, and reach your funding goals.

What You’ll Learn in This Lesson

The foundation of a successful Kickstarter campaign starts with one simple question: What makes your unique idea worth creating?

The answer shapes your entire campaign. It should be something that excites you from start to finish and captivates the backers who will help bring it to life.

This course will guide you through:

✅ Defining Your Goals: Are you launching a one-time project or laying the foundation for a long-term business? Understanding your objectives will shape your strategy.

✅ Identifying Your Audience: You don’t want to speak to everyone. You want to hone your message to a core base of supporters. Which begs the question — who will support your project? 

✅ Building a Strategic Timeline: How long should your campaign run? Finding the right balance—long enough to gain traction but short enough to maintain momentum—is key.

By the end of this course, you’ll have a clear strategy to create a strong, engaging, and fundable Kickstarter campaign.
