Guidelines for submitting a project to FundFind – Part 3: Defining your budget and project deadline!

As you are all aware of, I’m sure – Crowdfunding is all about raising funds for the project you have been dying to do but couldn’t up until now. So, naturally, there must be a lot of thought put into your budget. Don’t just randomly pick a number that you think will work – put a bit of work into it and plan exactly how much you need and where are the funds need to go once they have been raised.

    DEFINE YOUR BUDGET

Before you get greedy, do a bit of research about exactly how much you need in order to bring your project to life. Things that should also be taken into account is the cost of the rewards that you are promising to your funders as well as the processing fees that FundFind charges. Find out more about our fees in our FAQ section.

  DEFINE YOUR PROJECT DEADLINE

On FundFind you can have a project last for anything up to 90 days. This may seem like a short period of time, but through research, we have found that most successful projects only run for less than 60 days (30 days being the optimum amount of time). Longer projects tend to encourage the procrastination of potential funders and the enthusiasm of the project creator and the funders often fizzles out if the project runs for too long. Think carefully about your project deadline. It can make or break the success of the campaign.

Start planning that budget! The more work you put into your project before submission, the better your chances are of funding successfully! Don’t be hasty! By the time you submit your project to FundFind, you should have planned every single aspect of the campaign!

Good luck!
