Thank you so much for this link! It's amazing what they did in just 10 days.
Even if you don't use kickstarter, you can learn a lot from that article. Lots of tools I didn't know about.. and great content.

I've been thinking Kickstarter might be a good option fund raising and a decent platform for evaluating viability of products.

Great article, I have seen and read it before, but I am sure it will be priceless to other members!

One thing I am wondering is, how can you decide if an idea is or is not worth throwing on kickstarter?

For instance, I see physical products (i.e 3D printer) on there all the time, but what about an app, or a factory for getting rid of waste? The point of kickstarter is to entice a common person to pledge money and in return they get your product, with different tiers of 'goodies' based on the amount pledged, I guess for an app you could offer bonus content, early access, character made for them, but what about for a waste destruction service... Free methanol?!

Waste destruction service?
Be creative.

-Create a documentary about the process simultaneously, give them a copy and throw them in the credits.
-Create additional little goodies like toxic waste barrel plushies
-Talk somebody into donating their info product to donators (true believers of the cause won't mind contributing)
-Dedicate a wing or the entire building to them
-invite them to the grand opening and press conferences

Great ideas, thanks Dennis!

I will let you know if I come up with something (Issue is the facility will cost multi-million dollars)
