“Take whatever you are doing and do it to the max in terms of distribution. The
other way of saying this is that since the marginal cost of distribution is free, you
might as well put things everywhere.”
Eric Schmidt, former CEO
Google (2001 - 2015)

30. Projects or ideas to be
developed if the author
collects a needed
amount of money in
donations from
individuals, who can be
identified or not.
If the project reaches
the amount needed,
each donator will be
rewarded in some
symbolic way. If not, the
money returns to whom
contributed.

35. ATTENTION ISSUES:
The higher the minimum budget, the more difficult to reach it.
One-page (hot site) disclosure is better to attract donors.
Rich media (as video) can encourage more donors (not
necessarily more money).
The most acceptable projects are in the charity or
ethical fields.
