    IDEA MARKETING 
    A little article I wrote, thought I'd share. Kickstarter is a minty way to fund creative projects. The way it works is, if a project doesn’t reach its funding goal, no money changes hands. That way if you only get $3,000, people aren't expecting you to follow through with a $10,000...
