Rarely Mentioned Crowdfunding and Marketing Secrets

[@alexdrastico7840]

my takes: 1- STORYTELLING is key 2- SOCIAL PROOF is vital 3- create a sense of URGENCY 4- build RELATIONSHIP at scale 5- give THUMBS UP!

[@shuwukong]

Love it when there's less fullfillrite ads, totally love this

[@Mekevan]

I've been getting geared up for an upcoming project Salvador, listening to your podcasts for weeks now, as I go for walks around town, and "getting to know you" a bit in the process. This video ran "accidentally" after another I had watched. In fact, I missed the beginning of it, but got easily drawn in-unaware at first it was you. When I did realize it, it was like running into an old friend! You have a sincerity that shines through, and you're doing a great job!

[@MsNecessary1]

This is good! I watched the entire video because you made it worth my time with the content you shared with us. You definitely inspired me to try crowd funding once more. I tried it for my business needs and was unsuccessful and discouraged. I'm still struggling to stay in business without the necessary resources. After watching your videos, I'm encouraged to put myself out there once more. Thanks Salvador!

[@motiben1]

I just found out about you and love your videos! I really like the clean format, the clarity and the sound on the video. Personally, I like longer formats because you are actually digging into a topic rather than skimming the surface and I can see you have a lot to offer. You have a fan now for life now.

[@marcuskaroumi4757]

First video I've ever watched with you. Not only great content, but you're a master when it comes to communicating in a personal way. Will definitely watch more of your stuff!

[@crowdcrux]

Thanks!!!!

[@maxdondada]

These videos are really insightful. Well done Sal you're the best resource online for crowdfunding best practices.

[@jameshamilton7687]

Salvador, thanks for taking the time to produce this video. Like you said in this video nothing can be accomplished if someone only THINKS about doing what is takes to get a product off the ground. I have to learn the process and correct steps. And telling my story to others that reflect why I am creating a product. It is because of frustrations that I have experienced over the years in being a DIYer. I am a first time "inventor" and have filed my first provisional patent. I am not good at story telling but after I watched this video (and will watch other videos that you have produced) I feel better about how to tell my story. Thanks Jim Hamilton Georgetown TX

[@shaunholleronosjmasters5826]

hi salvador,just came across you after searching for help with my 1st crowdfunding pitch,your video was really easy watching and your comments really helped my thought process.

[@tiberiobarbeito4305]

Thank you Salvador. Really every video you did has helped to get a lot of people to donate for treatment of the little boy in my city. We just started the campaign, and there is still work left, but you are clearly the person who helped us to clarify strategies and to get 5000€ until now. really thank you from my heart for working on research and your videos. Greetings from Spain, Calp.

[@sophiec3865]

Thanks Salvador! Trying to get my brain into a promo and Kickstarter zone atm and listening to/watching videos like this really help :)

[@johnsavingssolved9942]

Sophie C want to do campaign want to talk

[@rhondasponders52]

This is video #7 of yours that I've watched within the last week. THanks for the Great content.

[@crowdcrux]

Awesome! Thank you, Rhondas.

[@DonnieJenkinsMusic]

Excellent job as always. Marketing should be more about relationships than sales, and your approach proves that so well.

[@2010Bangie]

This is well worth it and totally different from what I've done before. Mind blown!

[@JPAS1406]

Totally worth, if you do longer videos I'll definitely watch them... I would like to see a video about the storytelling, anything about that topic would be awesome. Thanks for the great content!

[@swe5200]

Excellent stuff Salvador! That is really impressive and so very useful. I will definitely be using your tips in my crowdfunding campaign. You are a natural at putting across your thoughts and your message

[@yourstory2video247]

The best way to learn how to do something is to hear from someone who has done it. Slavador gave a fun and informative presentation that helped me understand vitally important ways to make crowdfunding work for me. Thank you Salvadore. You practice what you preach by sharing yourself and your experience. You're wonderfully open and personable.

[@raymondgcomeau]

GOOD VIDEO SAL. Like many of the other videos I get so much from them. Some I even watch twice. I need to decide how and what campaign to choose. Many people have put a lot of themselves into their endeavors but mine goes so much more into peoples lives and the pain their looking to heal. Looking forward to watching and maybe taking you up on your 20 minute consult offer. Again, thanks Ray

[@earlbrown8126]

Loved every minute of you video - thanks Sal. Very insightful & compelling. Thought I knew a bit about crowdfunding, but learn from Sal every time!

[@8Sleight]

You know what ? It was the first video I have seen of you, and this is also the first comment and thumb up I have ever given. And the strange thing is that I was really close to change video around a minute, because I thought you talked to much about yourself and not enough about the actual topic. And here we are, you turned a stranger into a friend because I have the feeling that this post won't be ignored ! So well done bro !

[@MichaelCharest]

Good stuff Sal. LOVE your authenticity! :)

[@crowdcrux]

Thank you, Michael!

[@AN_DigitalDev]

Thank you for your time doing this video, Salvador, I appreciate it!

[@doziejosiah8406]

The video is very insightful, it highlight critical and powerful components of product presentation that most of us ignore or unaware that our choice decisions are influenced by them during campaigns and product offerings, for example story telling, social proof etc. Thank you Salvador. It is a great video

[@crowdcrux]

Thanks!

[@TonyLoyd]

Hey, Salvador, I love your authenticity. Well done.

[@AspergersversusNeurotypicals]

Salvador, this video helped me, especially the last couple of minutes where you mentioned how a potential supporter will appreciate connecting with me.

[@voiceofugur6115]

Salvador I love your videos, your energy everything! Thank you so much for the video.

[@agnesgirardon772]

i really enjoyed your video ! i m almost ready to launch my crowdfunding campaign , so im enjoying every advice you re giving ! keep doing, long or short version :)

[@agnesgirardon772]

thanks ! i m still working on my video to make it fun and catchy !!!

[@seizetheimperiumthecardgam7174]

Very honest and open information. I've listened to almost every podcast of yours already, and this stuff is great too! Applying a lot to my Seize the Imperium card game launch in January!

[@jewelsstein8797]

Brilliant Salvador! Please keep sharing, it has made a huge difference on my funding campaign!

[@Areyouaddfilm]

Well done, Salvador! I totally agree that story is so important, along with letting people get to know you as you said. This is the first video I've watched of yours and it is a great example of what your teaching. I do feel like I've gotten to know you better, even down to your preference of coffee over green tea which we have in common. :)

[@natewatkins2383]

You are AMAZING my friend...even when you take the skin off of me with BLUNT advice.

[@CosmickGold]

Great to have found you, because this video has new information I definitely needed. I'll be using it for sure.

[@TravelTipsForNepal]

First one of these videos I actually learned something from. Thanks so much. I'm starting a crowdfunder today or tomorrow.

[@crowdcrux]

:-D

[@MichelleGoddard]

Great stuff to get me thinking. I just took on my first ever client to help with their social media for a kickstarter coming up next month and I need all the ideas I can get!

[@MichelleGoddard]

I dabbled in network marketing for years and set up facebook pages, blogs and sites in the process. I never made any significant income, but learned a few things along the way. A relative recommended me to one of their own clients as someone that might be able to help, so I'm learning on the fly but so far just helping them post on Facebook, set up a Mailchimp list etc. so far. A great learning experience, I just hope I can help them achieve the kickstarter goals.

[@JamesAlexander14]

Salvador. Once again an excellent and informative video. Keep up the good work and I look forward to your next video.

[@alexandramcleod2079]

what a personable fella! Thanks Salvador. That was great!

[@yossirosemberg9140]

[@BrianSmith-li3zs]

Great input. Thank you for helping me, got the passion. The spark. Help me , adding real value to people’s lives. Love and gratitude.

[@MeditatewithAbhi]

I have a CBD company i would like to create a crowd finding campaign for..for story telling, creating social proof and want to do it but equity offering and reward offering..is it possible to mix REV cf ?

[@TobyWanShinobi]

Nice stuff Salvador! Solid points. So what type of relationship building content do you recommend when running a campaign? Like would you run video ads with the founders just talking about the "why" behind the product and where the idea came from, etc. Do you find text alone powerful enough?

[@innovativeentertainment4412]

I've been sharing a lot of your videos with my network. You know your sh...stuff.

[@itcamefromtheradio]

This was a very helpful video. Thanks!

[@BlakeDetherage]

Keep up the great work, man!

[@NancyFoxTV]

Do you have a how to build a successful crowdfunding campaign course?

[@gallery13MPLS]

Salvador thank you for essential info for funding projects - I think your point about 'social proof' is very very good and not something I understood -

[@Dragonlord9]

Hey Salvador, thanks for your video. I am close to completion of creating hands-free ecosystem tablet/smart phone holders for bed, kitchen and office desktop that are stowed away and hidden when not in use. I have a couple questions that I still haven't found the answers. 1. where/how to identify and build crowdfunding tribe on kickstarter/IndieGogo? 2. How and when do you actually start building social media backers? Thanks agains! Shun Chang

[@Polygonvisuals]

I like the concept of building relationships at scale. Any thoughts on how with the launch of kickstarter live video, will the importance of this go up? Are people under leveraging kickstarter live?

[@shaynaharris6480]

Yea when u said this isn't ganna be a quick tip video I was like....good lol I like listening and learning

[@collettenebeker8662]

Thanks for the video! This sounds like a way silly question, I'm sure, but how do you build relationships with strangers without sounding like a spammer? Don't they know what you want?

[@collettenebeker8662]

Thanks, that is great advice!
