Kickstarter vs. Self Crowdfund Raising

I agree. But, it also very difficult to get enough interest on those platforms, if one doesn’t have prior recognition. I’m a firm believer that good advertisement and marketing is required for recognition no matter the approach. The Kickstarter fundraising format works well for other types of projects. There’s room to add more features. Room to evolve. I would like to see features supporting the creation of multiple sub-campaigns under a single project. Such features would allow for more granular modular approach to fundraising for projects like game development which smaller ‘achievable’ pledges. We see granularity in the rewards and extended goals, why not in pledge itself?
