It’s all about the promo, and I think that the amount you have to do catches some people out.” As Tanner says, “The one thing I always share with creators thinking of crowdfunding themselves is that you can’t be shy about promoting your campaign before it launches and when it’s running. There are also non-problematic but potentially off-putting parts of the crowdfunding process itself, particularly the necessity of promoting projects, something that may be daunting to artists and writers who have little advertising and promotional experience.
