Take the next few days to really think about your Inner Circle of friends, families, regulars, and the like. These will be the people you’ll be reaching out to for contributions TWO DAYS before the campaign goes public. This first round of contributions will get things going and start your campaign with a bang! 💥 We’ve seen that campaigns that have contributions before launching publicly raise 2x as much as campaigns that don’t!
Start compiling names here with how you’ll reach them (think email, text, phone, in person, pigeon carrier).
How to talk to them:
Be honest, direct, and appreciative of all of their support so far. Don’t forget to let them know what they’ll be getting in return.
Email example: “Hi ____! I have some really exciting news… 3x3 Kitchen is growing! We, Derrick & Monika, are launching a NuMarket campaign to help us with the opening of our first brick and mortar location and you’re one of the first people to know. You’ve been such a huge part of my journey so far and your support has meant so much to us and our slow food, gluten free foods movement. The great thing about NuMarket is that whatever you contribute, you get 120% back in credits to spend on all of your favorite 3x3 Kitchen products after the campaign ends! We’ll be officially launching on Friday 2/1, but we wanted to share it with you first. You can contribute and learn more here!
Sincerely, Derrick and Monika
P.S. you’re the first one to see this so let us know what you think! Every share, contribution, and comment mean the world.
