We've Teamed Up With Crowdfunder

by Startacus Admin

We are pleased to announce that we have joined forces with Crowdfunder to offer members of our community a unique package of crowdfunding campaign support.

 

Crowdfunder is the UK’s largest crowdfunding network and leading reward based crowdfunding platform.  

 

Why are we doing this?

 

As a community of startups, self starters, and entrepreneurs, one of our fundamental aspirations is to make the experience of creating and growing a business as simple and accessible as possible.  Key in this endeavour is supporting our community in their pursuit of finance, specifically crowdfunding and other forms of alternative finance, as we believe these provide much needed support for new and growing business.

 

In the past few years we and our community have supported many startups in their crowdfunding ambitions, indeed we feel strongly that crowdfunding as a mechanism sits very well with our own ethos of community spirit and entrepreneurialism.

 

We are now ready to take the level of support we offer to a more comprehensive and beneficial level.

 

Our Crowdfunding Campaign Support

 

From today, if you are a member of the Startacus community and you want to create a reward based crowdfunding campaign on Crowdfunder, you may be eligible to receive a range of support from us.  

If you are immediately ready to add your crowdfunding project - head to the Crowdfunder / Startacus landing page!

If you've added your project or are still getting the nitty gritty of the campaign together then:

• We will begin with a meeting / phone call / video call to better understand the complexities of your business and proposed campaign, and to discuss some of the ways that we might be able to help push your project forward after launch.

If we your project is something we are able to support we will then;

• Complete an interview / feature on your crowdfunding project, to be published on the Startacus platform.  This would give you the opportunity to outline all of the key features of your business, your campaign, and the benefits of supporting your growth.

• Promote your campaign and your Startacus feature with our substantial community of startups, entrepreneurs and business leaders / influencers.  This will include promoting it to our sizeable social media networks including 8.5K Twitter followers and 3000+ facebook fans.   Your campaign will also be shared with our community via our newsletter.

 

In short, throughout your campaign, we will strive to be an encouraging and confident wind at your back!
