I'm speaking directly to YOU in this podcast episode. Think of this as a one on one consulting session, except it's free!

Believe it or not, I'm about to reveal my methods for generating product ideas and competing with established industry leaders.

I'll even go into why the majority of creators fail, even though they might mean well and be smart people.

This is a must-listen to episode if you're wondering how to go about crafting compelling copywriting for your product and get your backers, customers, and website visitors excited about your product.

Enjoy!

Bill from PetLiquids.com is preparing for an upcoming Kickstarter campaign and he's working on fine tuning his Facebook video ads. He submitted a question on how to get better results from his advertising efforts.

I broke down a few elements of a successful advertisement, along with where your advertisement might fail.

You're about to learn how to improve your conversions rate, click through percentage, and the number of visitors that buy your product or pledge to your crowdfunding campaign. Hope it helps!

This is THE episode to listen to if you want to learn how to create your first prototype, find a manufacturer, and scale the business with crowdfunding.

Josh Lifton, the Founder and CEO of Crowd Supply, shared the step-by-step process for taking your first product from the idea phase to the initial prototype, and finally, how you mass produce the product.

You don't need to be an engineer to make a new product from scratch, but you do need to take several crucial steps if if you want to successfully crowdfund your business.

This episode demystifies the product development process and after listening, you'll see how to actually raise money from the crowd!

I personally have been surprised at the enormous growth of the real estate crowdfunding industry.

I think that there’s a lot of opportunity to get in on the ground floor of this exploding new sector and really re-define what’s now considered to be an ancient way of doing business.

But, I don’t have all the answers. That’s why I brought Jason Fritton on the podcast to demystify the real estate crowdfunding industry. As the cofounder and CEO of Patch of Land, he has a unique view on this growing marketplace.

Not only will you learn how Patch of Land works and how you can use it finance properties, but you’ll also get an idea of just where this industry is heading.

I hope you get a lot out of this interview!

After launching two successful crowdfunding campaigns, Hendra from the mod-3 team came on to share his secrets for manufacturing a product, getting backers, and building a successful online store.

Believe it or not, we also talk about a challenge that Hendra faced with regards to rewards fulfillment and how he overcame the problem(one that you might face too). No one said Kickstarter was easy!

Although this is one of my longer episodes, it’s definitely worth sticking around until the end. There’s lots of great insights and tips as we explore Hendra’s entrepreneurial journey in-depth.

In this episode of the "Ask Sal" segment of the podcast, I address Elizabeth's question as to how to launch a science themed crowdfunding campaign to raise money for a research study. 

Getting a grant to fund scientific research is harder than ever before. Wouldn't it be cool to go directly to science supporters and raise money for a research study? 

But, what do you need to know and, more importantly, what do you need to do if you want to introduce your study to the world through crowdfunding?

Treat this podcast episode like a free consulting call!

I recorded my call with Jesse, an entrepreneur and creator who is thinking of doing a crowdfunding or Kickstarter campaign.

We go through the preparation that he's done up until this point and I answer all of the questions he has about crowdfunding.

My serious advice starts at the 16 minute mark.

P.S. I actually don't do individual consulting, but I do have an online course that you can access here.

I'm about to share a secret.

You don't need a massive email list to raise thousands and thousands of dollars on Kickstarter.

You don't need a huge social media following either!

Don't believe me?

I brought on Deepti, a member of the PHIRO Kickstarter campaign, to share her experience on Kickstarter.

She reveals the number of email addresses the team collected before launching (it's surprising), and why they were so successful!
