EP #439 Zencastr Breaks Down How They Raised $562,627 On WeFunder

No need to sugarcoat it: equity crowdfunding is new, and many people are still skeptical about it.

So why go with that route instead of choosing a more traditional way of funding?

The thing is, there are people out there who believe in your passion project so much that want to help you scale it further.

They want to build a relationship with your company rather than just invest in it. 

That’s where equity crowdfunding comes in!

And as today’s story shows, fostering that relationship through regulation crowdfunding can go a really long way

In today’s episode of the Crowdfunding Demystified podcast, Salvador Briggman speaks to the co-founder of Zencastr, Josh Nielsen, about all the steps that went into his $562,627 WeFunder campaign.

You’ll learn the factors critical to raising over half a million, including how they got thousands of email sign-ups, found the right team of people, and nailed their marketing strategy.

The truth is, you don’t know what you don’t know. 

So you have to jump in and learn as you go because you will get the most valuable lessons from the process. 

Hope you enjoy this episode and take away some nuggets of gold when it comes to kicking off your next crowdfunding campaign.
