In this episode of the podcast, I talked about about crowdfunding for personal causes with
Sarah Margulis, the cofounder and CEO of Plumfund, a newer crowdfunding site. She also runs HoneyFund, a honeymoon registry website.
We discuss some of the strategies that you can use to raise money for personal causes. She also shares a great way to launch a personal crowdfunding campaign that I hadn’t considered beforehand.
If you don’t know where to begin, this is the episode for you.
You’ll also hear about Sarah’s Shark Tank story and how she got an investment from Kevin O’Leary!
