I have a prototype of a product I have been working on for several months being printed and shipped to me hopefully very soon. I have the patents for it, and im working on some of the kinks in the meantime before I start my kickstarter campaign. One of the pitfalls I can see happening when all my ducks are in a row, is how am I going to drive traffic to my kickstarter campaign?

The marketing for crowd funding seems like it is going to be a completely different ball game. I will only have 30 days to reach my funding goal, all of the funding will have to come directly from the web address from the kickstarter page to reach the goal, and people will have to know about the project or happen to be browsing, and stumble upon it.

So basically what im asking is what type of marketing is ideal for crowd funding? I dont see ppc and fb ads as being a viable option, and a website would have to direct them to the project. I was thinking of doing some link sharing, and promotion on forums if it is allowed, and using forms of social media like twitter,fb,instagram etc. Some input would be greatly appreciated, and thank you for taking your time to read this :)
