Crowdfunder

My efforts in crowdfunding have collectively raised about $1.5 million in pre-sales, and many millions more after product launch.

I co-wrote, produced, and directed this video for Snappower. The brilliance of the product made the work easy. Their campaign raised over $839,000 in pre-orders on Kickstarter.

I wrote, produced, and directed this campaign video for Plugfones’ second product. The campaign was a huge hit, generating over $427,000 in presales during the Kickstarter run.

At Orabrush, we launched our second product via Indiegogo. Extensive customer feedback told us there was a strong market for a dog tongue cleaner. We called it Orapup. We raised $62,000 in a month, and pre-sold $750,000 worth of product before shipping just a few months later.

If a wedding and marriage weren't challenging enough, my wife Beccy and I did something completly different. We crowdfunded a film about living entirely on the new currency Bitcoin for over 3 months. The campaign raised $73k on Kickstarter and even more via outside sponsors.
