RE: Need help with Indiegogo, Twitter, Facebook etc.
I've noticed that I'm already getting bugged by people trying to sell me on Likes, and getting Followers for Twitter, and re-tweets advertising packages etc. What do people do to manage this? I'm having to ask myself questions like, do I really want to be associated/liked/linked with the vast array of anyone who is out there? These link /friend sellers create loads of bogus accounts on Twitter and Facebook. They seem particularly attractive, especially on Facebook, because the chances of anyone not directly associated with you or your page are very unlikely to find it. FB changed things about two years ago so you pretty much have to advertise in order to get likes. Id shy away from these bogus friends, just like you would shy away from bogus friends in real life. Its very obvious when they create bogus accounts on Facebook. They could join groups, like your page, etc, then post your link around - then you get complaints to Facebook about your product. Id avoid getting on the I Pay Scumbags Lists of Twitter and Facebook because you never know what THEY will do with that information in the future.

Re: Need help with Indiegogo, Twitter, Facebook etc.
Hi Lynn, Ok, so you are recommending an upfront paid advertising approach on FB and Twitter then where my ads appear somewhere without my having any links anywhere to anyone. Is this approach going to cost me a small fortune? Thank you Lynn for your opinion on this. Rick These link /friend sellers create loads of bogus accounts on Twitter and Facebook.

RE: Need help with Indiegogo, Twitter, Facebook etc.
Ok, so you are recommending an upfront paid advertising approach on FB and Twitter then where my ads appear somewhere without my having any links anywhere to anyone. Is this approach going to cost me a small fortune? I haven't done any advertising on Twitter other than our own home grown marketing. But I have made use of Facebook ads, bot for post and page promotion. You have a lot of granular control over whom you target, key words, gender, age, country there. You can also experiment with small sums to see what the results are. I can't claim a lot of experience in crowdfunding. I did watch your video and its really hard to tell what your previous work is like. Sometimes giving away a track or sampler or something helps let people know if that's something they are interested in. My reading up (I have a crowdfunding project in the works for Q1 or Q2 2015) on it though leads me to the conclusion that you should have every single day planned out for promoting, and that the first two weeks and the final two weeks are likely to be the ones that bring in the most.
