    Good video Mark. I know you are very much tied to the two funding models mentioned in the vid, but if I reach out to your team do you ONLY advise on these two platforms? The project I am looking to fund does not immediately jump out from the drop down lists. IF my project did not naturally fit into one of the funding areas, would your team advise on the most beneficial crowdfunding platform for my product? or would I be pigeonholed into something because you have a kickback in place?

  • @launchboom_official

    Good question. First off, we get no kickbacks from Kickstarter or Indiegogo. We use those two platforms because we've found them to perform the best for the type of products we help launch. So if your product wouldn't be a good fit for those platforms, I wouldn't feel confident that we'd be the best partner for you. - Mark

    A film needing low 5 digit funding (say $25K though more is better). I wonder what my best platform might be. Kickstarter's all-or-nothing thing is a bit off-putting. But I hear the flexible route Indiegogo offers does not convey to contributors the sense of urgency that brings funds in before the deadline. I kind of want to try Indiegogo for its flexibility and post-campaign funding .. but I don't want to be trapped in Smallville either. Do you have a suggestion for my above situation? Is Indiegogo still pretty decent for films?

    In general, I think that creative projects are better on Kickstarter than Indiegogo (even though it was founded for indie films). With that said, if the all-or-nothing model of KS is a dealbreaker, I think that you can still find success on IGG. There are film projects still funding there, but the amount are much less than KS.

    You can… sort of. Indiegogo has a program called Indiegogo InDemand where you can keep pre-selling after your Kickstarter. But if you launch on Indiegogo first, you can’t launch on Kickstarter after.
