Wow, what an exciting platform \u2013 Kickstarter. I’m thrilled to discuss this week’s topic because my team and I have successfully managed six Kickstarter campaigns, raising over CA$200k in total from this incredible and magical place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From our first Kickstarter campaign to our latest one, we have made tremendous improvements in our videos, write-ups, images, and even our product itself. I believe that a pitch is all about telling a story, focusing on promoting the venture to investors rather than simply showcasing products for customers. As an Ed-tech company, our main emphasis should be on how our products\/services can revolutionize the way electronics education is taught and learned, rather than bombarding people with technical specifications. I’m proud to say that we have shifted in the right direction since our first campaign in 2018, MEGO<\/a>, which was solely a product<\/strong>, to our most funded campaign in 2022, Lab-on-the-go<\/a>, which represents an idea<\/strong> of how people can approach electronics labs<\/p>\n\n\n\n But still, I looked some other peer\u2019s post of different pitch pool, I can tell that there are huge potential room for us to grow. Given the abundance of talented peers in ETEC522, most of whom are in the educational field, I genuinely value your opinions and criticisms regarding any of our previous Kickstarter campaigns.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n By the way, I’m excited to announce that we are preparing to launch our seventh Kickstarter campaign, tentatively named SparkTip, around mid-June. This upcoming project revolves around a cordless solder iron pen, a rechargeable (cordless) fan sucker, and a meticulously designed tutorial book. The target audience for this campaign will primarily be beginners, makers, and individuals keen to learn soldering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Some of our previous KS campaigns:<\/p>\n\n\n\n MEGO – portable power supply in 2018<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n STEM Ruler (PCB crafted) in 2019<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Zoolark – Integrating Oscilloscope and Function generator in 2021<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n STEP FPGA – a micro controller board for FPGA beginners in 2022<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
