This is the point where you should email everyone who gave money to your cause to thank them and tell them what to expect over the coming months.

If you didn’t do as well as you’d hoped and your book won’t be coming out, you’ll need to tell that to your supporters.

If you did achieve your crowdfunding goal, congratulations! Celebrate with your supporters, thank them for their generosity, and let them know what you’ll be doing with the funds over the next few months. If you’re expecting the book to take longer than two months to publish, plan to send regular updates to your supporters. A monthly update is a good rule of thumb.

Finally, give yourself a massive pat on the back for getting to the end of this process. It takes a lot of work and a lot of guts.

Congratulations!

Have a high five from PubLaunch!
