Inside the Untold Journey of Creating a Hit Movie Far from Hollywood Lights with Adam Burke and Jud Nichols
So, thank you everybody to that, because again, this is obviously hopefully something that is valuable to writers, but it’s also very valuable to us. We got a lot of feedback. As I said, it’s over 100, I think people actually went and filled out shows and then wrote, in many cases wrote their own taglines, and just gave us general feedback about this. So again, I think hopefully it’s a win-win, hopefully everybody gets something out of this. And again, you didn’t have to pledge to participate, but it was another email I could send out, and then I could link to the Kickstarter. And this did work. This brought in another batch of backers over that last weekend. And then basically we rolled around that Monday, the final few days, Monday and Tuesday. And we were pretty close by this point, up over 4,000, I think, because of closing in on the 5,000 mark. And I sent out one last email reminder the day before we ended Tuesday at midnight. I sent out Monday morning. I sent this out, sent this email out, and basically just telling people, hey, this is the Kickstarter campaign, it’s going to end. And again, that brought in the remaining backers and pledges. But that’s pretty much it of exactly how I was able to raise this money. I created a whole bunch of short-form videos. Again, they didn’t really work a ton, but hopefully they’ll still pay dividends down the road. And I sent out four emails, and literally that’s just four emails. But these are folks, I mean, if you’re listening to this podcast, you’re probably on the list. You’re probably one of the people. But these are people that listen to my podcast and in many cases have been listening to it for years and have gotten value out of the podcast. So, it makes sense that those people might be willing to kick in a few bucks for a project like this. But again, I came to the Kickstarter with at least some audience already built. But that’s it. That’s pretty much how I was able to raise slightly more than $5,000.
