How To Get Massive PR for Your Crowdfunding Campaign

PR is one of the most important parts of crowdfunding. Many people don’t know what PR or “public relations” even is, so let me explain it to you…

What is Crowdfunding PR?

PR or “public relations” is all about getting press and media coverage for your crowdfunding project. This means getting picked up by the press. So you can get your project in various media outlets such as blogs, magazines, newspapers, even on TV! That’s one of my key strategies to getting funded.

Why is PR so Important for Crowdfunding?

It’s simple: if you do it right, then PR gets your crowdfunding project in front of thousands, or even millions of people FOR FREE! It doesn’t get much better than that. Now, I’m not saying the crowdfunding PR is easy, but it is awesome and very cost effective.

My Experience with PR:

I used my proven 5 step PR outreach process to raise tens of thousands of dollars on the projects I’ve launched. For example, I got my crowdfunding idea Waybu Eyewear picked up by blogs across the world, as well as magazines and newspapers. This lead to a FLOOD of backers contributing to the project. You can literally get the money pouring in with the right PR strategy.

How Do I Get PR Coverage Too?

Its hard for me to give generic PR advice. I need to know what your project is all about to focus on the best angles and media outlets. In other words, every crowdfunding project needs a custom PR strategy behind it. I work with projects in all major categories to help them craft a winning PR strategy. You want to make you project newsworthy and find out what makes it stand out. The Crowdfund King program includes full training on how to rock PR and get massive coverage for any type of crowdfunding idea you may launch.

Giving Back – Salvation Army Event Sponsor

Not too long ago I started this brand of bamboo eyewear through crowdfunding. We raised about $25,000 in just a few weeks by launching a Crowdfunding project on Indiegogo. That kicked things off.

Since then we’ve turned those funds into a full blown business. Now we’ve had customers from literally all around the world and have Waybu sold in fashion boutiques from Los Angeles to Paris, France.

This week I’m out the gold course greens.. but I’m not here to golf. I’m here to help support an organization that makes a difference in peoples lives. I’m talking about the Salvation Army. Each year the Salvation Army helps to feed and cloth thousands of people across the country. They make a huge difference in the communities they serve.

My biz Waybu Eyewear is a sponsor of the annual Salvation Army golf tournament in Southern California. It’s one of the biggest fundraising events of the year for their organization. It feels great to have the power to help support them in a big way by lending our company’s time and resources. Although I’m the “Crowdfund King”, it’s not all about the mulla sometimes. It’s also nice to be able to support things that you like too.

I’ve been in a position to help this particular non-profit organization since 2013 to the present day. I was even honored by them when I was named a Salvation Army Superstar of Service Recipient, which is one of the highest awards they give to people. They only make that award each year to a select few individuals who are recognized as making a big impact in the community. I would never have been able to help so many people if I did not become an entrepreneur and have financial freedom.

That’s why I think crowdfunding and entrepreneurship is so great. It allows us to not just buy fancy cars and big houses, but to help others. Trying to be successful is a nobel mission, not greedy. Don’t let couch potatoes sit back and call you greedy for trying to be something more and leave a mark on the world. Crowdfunding is a way to do big things, not just make big money.

I raised $25,000 dollars for my FIRST EVER crowdfunding project within just a few weeks. I worked on projects that have literally raised hundreds of thousands of dollars within just 30 days! These are the skills you need to be successful and capitalize big time in the new crowdfunding economy.

How To Create a Lifestyle Business With Crowdfunding

It’s not really about the money, it’s about the lifestyle dummy! I don’t like it when people create a false choice: make a bunch of money and hate what you do OR love what you do and don’t worry about money. Why not have both? People lack imagination. It is very possible to love what you do AND make a ton of money.

That’s why I use crowdfunding to launch my businesses. It gives me more flexibility. Instead of just looking for business opportunities in my area or thinking about some way to simply ‘make money’, I focus on my interests and passions. Why make six figures a year doing something that you hate?

This lead me to think about a LIFESTYLE BUSINESS. A good lifestyle business is where the daily activities are fun as hell. For example, one of the things I always need to do is take pictures with sunglass models in exotic locations. I’m cool with doing that. It doesn’t feel like work at all. Its an adventure. That my friend, is a lifestyle business and its possible with crowdfunding.

To find your own lifestyle business you need to think about what you’re passionate about and what interests you. Don’t let all the negativity of friends, family, or society constrain your options here either. If you like riding bicycles all day, then find a business that allows you to do that! Seriously!

Ok, now you may think I’m joking or exaggerating when I said the “ride bikes all day” thing. But I’m not! One of my Crowdfund King students did just that! Ben loved bicycling everywhere and riding long distances. He thought of a gadget that would help people ride bikes safer. It was a hands free phone / speaker attachment that you can put in your bike. It allowed people to listen to music or directions from their phone without using headphones.

Guess what? I helped Ben raise about $25,000 in just 30 days to launch his own lifestyle business too! His company now sells the bike phone / speaker combo gadget on his website. He collects automated income while he tests to bike products, promotes the gadget by riding in bike events, and even does marketing promotion strategies where he rides across the US to get publicity for his brand.

That’s right! Ben makes money riding his bike all day, doing what he loves. Now you see how this new crowdfunding economy is not only helping people be financially free, but also giving us a lifestyle business to enjoy. Having the skills to crowdfund your own lifestyle business is the most important thing you can learn right now to capitalize big time on the crowdfunding economy.
