#Make100 Egg-Centennial: A Living Kickstarter Guide

I'm on a mission to pop 100 egg yolks in one day on Kickstarter. The party is on Saturday February, 11th, 2017. Will you join me?

My friends at Kickstarter launched a creative prompt called #Make100 to jump-start 2017. Artists and creators of all stripes are encouraged to make 100 of anything from limited editions to experiences. 

Maybe you thrive under creative constraints, or maybe you’re just excited that we’ll be shouting Make 100 projects from the rooftops all month long. Either way, consider this your nudge to get creating.

Along the way, I decided to make my project a living case-study of how to run a campaign. I took to Medium to publish a few guides to key elements like analytics, communication and graphics.

Previous to this, I launched a project to create my band's first cassette album. We offered unique awards and had a killer promotional video. I later helped Kickstarter with a one-hour Creator Hangout, explaining how we pulled it off. 

If you have any questions about running a Kickstarter project, you can tweet me @Randwiches. I'd love to know if any of my advice helped you succeed.
