For project creators
A campaign with a host behind it — and a crowd that arrives already interested.
For project creators
Don’t go it alone
Crowdfund your project with support from business and nonprofits.
Crowdfunding puts the whole weight of a campaign on the person who has the least time to carry it: the person making the thing. Crowdasaurus handed part of that weight to a host.
What you got
Three things a solo campaign does not have
A host with a stake
An organization that chose your project and had a reason to keep promoting it after launch week.
Marketing help
Hosts had marketing people. Their job was to make a campaign land, which is rarely the creator’s job.
More time
Campaigns stayed open longer than the usual thirty days, so an idea that needed a slow start could still finish.
On the platform
Three things a project could read before it started
Crowdfunding explained
What crowdfunding is, and why a project without a crowd usually fails.
Submission guidelines
What a project needed to be before a host would take it on.
Submit a project
The form that put a project in front of the host network.
Why it mattered
The crowd was the bottleneck
KillerStartups put the problem plainly: crowdfunding is an excellent way to fund a project if you already have a support system, and the odds are slim if you do not. No crowd, no funding.
Crowdasaurus supplies the crowd.
Get going
Put a project on the platform
Tell us what you want to fund and who already cares about it. That second answer is the one that decides a campaign.
