"Anthea's knowledge about Kickstarter has been invaluable. From how to use the platform, to best practices, and more, Anthea has been a huge help with navigating Kickstarter." - Rebecca L. Garcia, creator of four successful campaigns funding a total of $140k

This book distills all the best advice and research in one bursting-at-the-seams package. In addition to detailed step-by-step instructions and a comprehensive Kickstarter Checklist, it contains the current best-practices for successful campaigns, pitfalls to avoid, and a look at the newest tools Kickstarter has rolled out to help creators. Plus, read an exclusive interview with the Director of Kickstarter's Publishing.

"As an author, Anthea's guidance on the Kickstarter platform has been irreplaceable. When I first saw her post about her personal results on Kickstarter, I thought "that's wonderful, but it would never work for me." Still, I joined her Facebook group and started reading and studying. My first campaign funded at $9,000+. All I did was read Anthea's advice and study campaigns. If you're serious about running a Kickstarter or even just exploring the idea, back this project and read this book!" - E.V. Everest
