A Successful Kickstarter Campaign - Or Was It?

Hey! How about subscribing to my blog via RSS feed or email? It's quick and easy and you'll never miss a single post. Thanks!

I had a friend ask me about my thoughts on my Successful Kickstarter Campaign. He is planning on launching a campaign this summer and wanted to "pick my brain" so to speak. This is a huge can of worms and I don't know why I haven't blogged about it before. Whether or not you pledged to my Kickstarter campaign, this post is not about you. These are just my observations and over-reactions. If you contributed, whatever the amount, I'm so grateful. If you did not contribute, for whatever reason, I'm not hurt.

From the outside looking in, this project looked like a success. I was able to raise $585 over my goal of $3,500. I was able to make a CD that I'm pleased with. From the inside, however, the project felt like a failure. This has nothing to do with money. I'd like to share with you some of the things I wrestled with over the 30-day campaign as well as the successes and, finally, some advice.
