Good info for a regular backer as well as someone who regularly works on them from behind the scenes. Heavy on the tech advice which, honestly, is the type of campaign to regularly hit 6 figures. Still has good info for campaigns of all sizes and types, you just need to filter it.

“The truth is, running a campaign is equal parts excitement and narrowly avoiding being hit by a car. Your future is on the line with every decision.”

Do not let the “six figure crowdfunding” phrase in the title stop you from picking up this book. This instructional book will help: 1) the person planning to run a campaign regardless of the amount; 2) the person planning to run a campaign with a goal of six figures and above; and 3) the person who supports crowdfunding projects and/or has an “outsider” interest in this 21st century phenomenon. While Six Figure Crowdfunding: The No Bullsh*t Guide to Running a Life-Changing Campaign from BOOM! Studios is truly marketed to the individuals who fall into one of the first two categories and will be the main focus of this review, this book also reveals fascinating crowdfunding statistics while discussing big projects that succeeded (i.e., funded) but was mired in a whole lot of lessons learned afterwards.

Having raised over $4.7 million through three Cyanide & Happiness campaigns, crowdfunding consultant Derek Miller is joined by writer Noelle Pugh and illustrator Joy Ho, as well as contributions from 23 individuals representing projects that raised over $182.6 million. The book is divided into the three M’s: message, mechanics, and marketing.

I like author’s sarcastic voice to make reading this book more fun but it still took serious motivation to finish it (just like many other non-fiction books). Tips & tricks helped me improve my campaign page. I wish there was an audibook though
