Review – Is your book project ‘Pozible’ with crowd funding?
|

No that isn’t a spelling error but the name of a website which specialises in funding creative projects via multiple small investors to reach large targets. In other words fund the budget of your publishing project without needing to invest any of your own money.
Sound too good to be true – well there is a catch you need to reach your budget by a certain timeline so yes it’s a race against the clock but if you set a realistic budget and enough people pledge to give the total amount before the time you have set expires then you receive every cent pledged.
It’s as simple as registering your project (with description), giving people an incentive at different financial levels of contribution (eg. a free ebook, a free ebook and a free book, a free ebook and a free book signed by the author, a free ebook and a free book signed by the author plus your sponsorship acknowledged in the book itself etc.), setting a timeline and then promoting your project just as you would your book.
It’s not just for books obviously but basically it’s pre-selling your book without needing to actually sell any copies and bringing your book to life without actually having to pay for the publishing process yourself.
