Title: My Girlfriend's First Kickstarter: Round 2
Post by: techwizard on May 14, 2017, 02:59:18 PM
Her first project was very close but not quite funded, so she's trying again! This time with slightly redesigned pins, and all 4 colours available from the get go.

ya! exciting :) just waiting on a few surveys and payments to be processed then she'll order the pins. theres a chance that the pins might get to us just before we go on a 2 week vacation, so there might be some delay getting them shipped out, but we'll see

right i forgot about this thread. All the pins were shipped out! As far as i know there haven't been any problems with pins not arriving or anything like that. She's now sitting on a whole bunch of extra pins, with no set plan on what to do with them. She seems interested in the idea of selling them at a local convention but wants more than just the one set of pins before doing that.

I thought she had a plan to sell them online or something like that

no, she never had any set plan...unless i mistakenly said sell online when i was thinking of the ones that kickstarter backers would receive. she could end up selling them online anyway though, i'm not sure how motivated she is to put together enough stuff for a local convention table.

She's doing another one, same series of pins but a new bird, Red-Winged Blackbird this time! Any pledge is appreciated :)

She doesn't have any set plan on what to do with the pins beyond the kickstarter itself, whether to sell them online or locally, so these may not be available outside of the kickstarter. Though you could always send me a PM if it's successful but you missed out and still want one, we'll figure something out. There are still Budgie pins available from her previous Kickstarter too if anyone is interested.
