Fund Your Books with Kickstarter Without Going Big-Free Webinar
|
One book link, Every store Booklinker.com 6/25/2026 Hello! Have you ever thought about using Kickstarter to fund your next book project? It might be more accessible than you think. In this free webinar, I'll walk you through a straightforward, low-risk approach to crowdfunding that shows you how to create Kickstarter campaigns, connect with readers, and build momentum for future launches. Drawing from my experience running five successfully funded campaigns, I'll share practical strategies for setting realistic goals, creating manageable reward tiers, and using Kickstarter not just as a funding tool, but as a way to grow your readership. These weren't campaigns raising tens of thousands of dollars. They were small, strategic, and every one of them funded. Success isn't about going viral. It's about using Kickstarter strategically and sustainably. It will be recorded, but you have to register to get the link.
