Start a project

For hosts

Traffic, revenue, SEO and engagement — the company’s B2B pitch, on a campaign that carries your name.

For hosts

Invigorate your marketing strategy with our B2B product

A host brings the crowd it already has. The platform brings a project worth that crowd’s attention.

Talk about hosting

Hosts were companies and institutions with a community already in place.

What you get

Four returns, in the company’s own order

Web traffic

A steady flow of supporters arriving from a project they already care about.

Revenue

A share of the activity a campaign generates, and products people discover through it.

SEO

Fresh, genuinely local content and inbound links around a live campaign.

Engagement

New customers and supporters met at the moment they are most receptive.

Who hosted

The kinds of organization it was built for

The recovered navigation listed five sectors for hosts, and the company described the product as white-label — the campaign ran inside the host’s own community, under its own name.

  • Enterprise
  • Nonprofits
  • Foundations
  • Retail
  • Services
Hosts were commercial neighbours as much as large institutions: the businesses a community already walked past.

Tested with three

Currently the Pittsburgh Foundation, WQED – a local PBS affiliate, and C-Leveled – a regional incubator – are testing our value on a number of regional crowdfunding projects.

How hosting ran

Three steps, one campaign

01

Pick the project

The host chose the projects it wanted in front of its community — the ones that matched what it already stood for.

02

Run it as your own

The campaign appeared as a white-label community project, with the host’s name on it and the host’s channels promoting it.

03

Keep the audience

Supporters who arrived through the campaign stayed supporters of the host after the funding closed.
