By Lelia Hall


In the present times, most start-up projects tend to die off without accomplishing its purpose due to funding problems. We are going to look some ways in which you can choose the best crowdfunding site to ensure you achieve your dreams. Every person desires to see their dream come true but devoid of funds, it can be a challenging venture.

The world is full of materialistic people such that most of the time; you need a whole lot of cash for a startup. At crowdfunding sites, you can explain to individuals about your ambitions, and if they are convinced, they will fund your project. Therefore, you ought to learn about persuasive language and how you will use them for the funders to be convinced.

Many people may wonder how these websites work. It works such that persons with common interests fund both business and personal with their money through donation. The advantage of using this method for generating money is that the sites do not charge you anything until you have raised something, so they take the commission. It also gives your idea a great platform for publicity for free hence you have nothing to lose.

One of the websites is Kickstarter. It has helped launch over 60000 projects and helped raise more than 200 million dollars. The site accepts funding for all projects except scholarship, charity, vacations and awareness campaigns. And the people who have benefited from these funding totally deserved it. The process of registering is quite simple because it just needs signing up for an account in which you fill out the information regarding your project. Also, ensure that, all details about your project are right so that the admin can have an easy time reviewing the projects for easy acceptance of applications.

Some of the unique features of the Kickstarter website are that it has a backer reward. It is where you create a small reward for backers who will claim some little money if you succeed to have a successful funding. The website charges you a five percent fee on the successful projects. After that Amazon Payment will then process the funds for you after the crowdfunding process is successful. This site works exclusively for US residents because you must have Social Security number to register.

Another site is IndieGoGo that refers to independence. The site is helpful in raising funds fro projects. It works more the less the same us Kickstarter and so it will be easier to use especially if you have worked with Kickstarter.

The main difference between the two is that IndieGoGo allows charity donations, and Backer reward is a bonus. Another thing to note is that, you can get funding despite being a U. S resident or not. It uses Paypal to pay out the funds raised by respondents. They are little charges made for credit card processing, raised fund fee and wiring fee for non-resident U. S citizens.

Lastly, for you to have a successful venture on these sites, you need to have a workable strategy. Get to know the site that fits your project. Always be keen on fees charged by websites and set achievable goals. It is like a marketing campaign and so, you must be persuasive for it to create traffic on social media platforms.
