Crowdfunding: Kickstarting Your Enterprise or Non-profit Through Online Fundraising HKS Communications Program Tuesday, October 17, 2017 What is crowdfunding? "The practice of funding a project or venture by raising many small amounts of money from a large number of people, typically via the Internet" (Forbes). Online crowdfunding has existed since 1997, but the term "crowdfunding" wasn't coined until 2006 and didn't become popular until Kickstarter was founded in 2009. What kinds of projects can be crowdfunded? Any kind! From launching a new mobile app to a new restaurant, publishing a book to a website, expanding a non-profit to paying a child's hospital bills, crowdfunding can (and has!) been used to fund all these projects and more. Can anyone crowdfund? Yes, but not everyone is successful: 64% of all Kickstarters fail. Of those that succeed, most were seeking less than $10,000 in funding. It helps to have either a reputation—you've been working in this industry for a while and have a proven track record for bringing projects to completion—or a prototype—a demonstration of the final product, whether it's a chapter of a book, a trailer for a movie, or a smaller event that could be made bigger. What crowdfunding platform should I use? There are over 500 crowdfunding platforms, with the biggest ones being Kickstarter, Indiegogo, GoFundMe, and Patreon. Which one you choose is largely determined by what kind of project you're running and how much money you need: • Kickstarter requires all its projects fall into one of these categories: Art, Comics, Crafts, Dance, Design, Fashion, Film & Video, Food, Games, Journalism, Music, Photography, Publishing, Technology, and Theater. -
Investing in Artists Bay Area Ally Fund Matching Grant Program Donor Interview Questions
INVESTING IN ARTISTS BAY AREA ALLY FUND MATCHING GRANT PROGRAM DONOR INTERVIEW QUESTIONS Introduction Hello. Thank you for taking the time for this call. Before I get started, I’d like to share a brief explanation for this call and the Center for Cultural Innovation’s research. I am _____ (name and title at CCI). CCI supports individual artists, and we are always interested in learning about why and how donors support artists. We recognize that there are generational and technological shifts, namely new online giving platforms, that may be affecting how artists raise money, and to this end, we are talking with donors of artists that are non‐family members to learn about how new environmental factors may (or may not) be influencing your giving. I have 13 questions, and I have planned for this call to take no more than 30 minutes. [Facilitator Note: Do not exceed time allotted. If the interviewee seems to want to go longer, that’s fine. BUT, if you haven’t gotten to the end and time is up, please conclude to stay on time.] Also, please know that CCI will not share your name, your giving amount(s), or to whom you donated in any way with the artist, our funders, or anyone else. Your participation is anonymous and any responses we use will be aggregated without attribution to you. In other words, outside of the artist who referred you, your participation is confidential. Do you have any questions before I start? General Questions 1. In general, how many times a year do you make a charitable donation? (Prompt: None, 1‐2, half a dozen, over a dozen) 2. -

Here Too the Gods Are Present Ethos Building on Patreon.Com
Örebro University School of Humanities, Education and Social Sciences Here too the gods are present Ethos building on patreon.com Independent project Rhetoric Spring semester 2017 Supervisor: Anders Eriksson Author: Marcus Schmidt Abstract This essay studies the rhetorical situation of the crowdfunding site Patreon.com, with a particular focus on the construction of ethos. Taking off from the conception of ethos as a discursive dwelling place, the study analyzes five Patreon pages and the self-promotional practices associated with each page. It concludes that there are different ways of negotiating the implicit and explicit expectations that go along with setting up and maintaining a presence on a crowdfunding site – not least with regards to the relationship between ethos and ethics.

COVID-19 Content Resource Guide for Artists
COVID-19 Content Resource Guide for Artists Ever resourceful and creative, artists are experimenting with new ways of generating income during the COVID-19 pandemic, which is having a great impact on the arts industry. We expect more resources, innovations, and strategies will emerge as the situation evolves. At present, the most common and accessible strategies we see artists using to connect with audiences and generate income are (1) producing virtual concerts and lessons that audiences can tip or buy a “virtual ticket” to experience; (2) establishing subscription-based services on such platforms as Patreon; and (3) establishing online stores through their own website or online marketplaces such sources as Etsy.

2017 Boro Fan Almanac
2017 Boro Fan Almanac Written By: Billy Schaefer 1 Contents Introduction … Pg. 3 Previous Almanac Statistics… Pg. 4 Division 1 Individual Rankings… Pg. 5 Division 1 Team Projections… Pg. 26 Division 2 Individual Rankings… Pg. 27 Division 2 Team Projections … Pg. 48 Division 3 Individual Rankings… Pg. 49 Division 3 Team Projections … Pg. 69 2 Introduction Fans & Readers: Thank you for coming back another year and reading what is officially the Seventh Annual Boro Fan Almanac. It goes without saying, but this is served as a prediction report. As you may or may not know, I release weekly rankings on my website, borofanohio.net, and have been doing so for the past six seasons. The first two years I put this together it only covered Division 3, but the past four years I have moved to both Division 1 and Division 2 as well. When reading the report, please remember that I have not seen every result. Also, when reading the report, keep in mind that head-to-head results do count, but the overall rankings are amongst “the field” and not focused on one particular head-to-head win/loss. I hope that you guys enjoy reading this as much as I do in putting it together. Thank you for the continuous support and attention that you guys show for The Almanac and website year in and year out, it means a lot. Remember to follow me on Twitter @BoroFan_OH_WRST. I would also like to give a special thanks to my good friend and editor, Dominic Petrella. It seems as though we are getting ready to witness another great postseason in OHSAA Wrestling. -
