    Producing a Board Game 0-100 (Product dev, Crowd sourcing, Ecommerce, Ads)

    HOT! SOURCING EXECUTION 
    Following this thread, best of luck! Really interested to see how you get on. Can you not do the kickstarter with a prototype that's as closed to the final design as possible and make some creative around real people actually playing it? If it's a drinking board game, personally I'd really want...

    Greetings from London

    INTRO

    Fiverr is awful (my experience of outsourcing work using Fiverr)

    PEOPLE

    INTRO 
    Thank you! :) sure - I'd love to share my experience! It wasn't quite a brand new product, rather a new design of something existing and switching the target audience of what it's typically for... I'll start an execution thread and share it :)
