- Kickstarter = all or nothing, Indiegogo = percent based on type, Be realistic = have realistic goals, and have realistic rewards. (From this year) Watch webinar by Brett from Indiegogo. On his slides, he talks about perks that people have offered that are hard to fulfill. Ex: autographed pictures. Custom thank you videos. Cap these “difficult” perks at X instead of leaving it open-ended/unlimited. (???Check out the LES slide reference???) Find other images similar to Brett’s but don’t copy.
