And the more work you’ve put into the launch day, the better results you’ll see in those first few days.
So far, so familiar.Â
But what are the actual steps you need to take in order to ensure a successful first day?
Today we are lucky enough to speak to a successful Kickstarter creator whose most recent campaign blew past their funding goal within the first 24 hours!
