Since we’re still accepting new campaigns, we thought we’d post something useful to anyone thinking about crowdfunding (or working on a project right now). The biggest challenge that most people face during this process is usually figuring out what needs to happen in what order so that supporters will actually come to the page. Managing and promoting a campaign in an effective way can be especially challenging for a writer who normally spends his or her time thinking about reading and writing rather than marketing.

Given that this is such a prominent issue, we’ve decided to adapt (and partially preview) what we’ll later be using in our Learning Center on the official site.
