I’m fascinated by Kickstarter. Like Shark Tank, I can be one of the first to
see lots of new things that will be hitting the market. And I can gamble a little on getting
something neat for a bargain price.
If you don’t know what Kickstarter is here is my take on
it…
Kickstarter is a funding project for creative projects. Everything from games and music, to art,
design and technology. Rewards vary from
project to project, but often include a copy of what is being produced.
Every project creator sets their project's funding goal
and deadline. If people like the project, they can pledge money to make it
happen. If the project succeeds in reaching its funding goal, all backers'
credit cards are charged when time expires. If the project falls short, no one
is charged. Funding on Kickstarter is all-or-nothing. Kickstarter does not allow projects to
fundraise for charity or offer financial incentives.
