I had a conversation with a person recently where we talked about how nowadays with things like crowdfunding you don\u2019t really need to try and secure things like sponsorship in the traditional sense such as getting a large corporations to back you up. Even people such as regular fans or supporters can chip in a little to help you achieve whatever it is. But the key was you have to give them the opportunity to do so as opposed to saying no for them.<\/p>\n
For example, many times people wouldn\u2019t want to setup things like a crowdfunding or donation site because it doesn\u2019t feel like the right timing or that you may have to compromise what you currently believe in to in a sense satisfy your investors I guess you can say. However, the point of this was that you have to give people a chance where you should just make it crystal clear on what it is you want to do. If people want to contribute in some way then at least everyone knows what to expect.<\/p>\n
That does make sense in many ways and the person commented that the only reason one wouldn\u2019t do it is because they are going into an unknown territory. I guess that is never a good reason to not do something right?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
