Crowdfunding Your Next Successful Product
Getting a product idea off the ground requires considerable effort and capital. We’ll leave the effort to you, but here are three crowdfunding websites to consider that can help take your product from the idea to reality.
Kickstarter
By far, the largest and one of the most popular, Kickstarter’s most notable products include the Ouya video game console, and the Pebble e-Watch.
Indiegogo
Similar to Kickstarter, Indiegogo is an international crowdfunding website with a broad range of categories.
Patreon
Patreon is the newest, but evidently unique kid on the block. Unlike Kickstarter and Indiegogo which focuses on projects, Patreon is crowdfunding for content. If you’re looking for a place to crowdfund your new music or instructional video, Patreon is the place for you.
There are many other crowdfunding websites out there. Check out this list which compares their funding models, areas of focus, and country availability.
