Join us for a talk and book signing with Alex Daly, author of The Crowdsourceress: Get Smart, Get Funded and Kickstart Your Big Idea
In recent years, the crowdfunding industry has generated several billions in funding. But the harsh reality is that around 60 percent of Kickstarter campaigns fail. Enter Alex Daly, a crowdfunding expert who has raised over $20 million for her clients' campaigns. She has run some of Kickstarter's biggest projects -- TLC's newest album, Neil Young's audio player, and Joan Didion's documentary. In The Crowdsourceress, Daly takes readers deep inside her most successful campaigns, showing you how to:
Get fans and influencers excited about your launch
Build an appealing and powerfully designed campaign
Access proven video tips, pitching tactics, press releases, and rewards ideas
Avoid the most common headaches and pitfalls
Here you'll get tangible tools to run your own crowdfunding campaigns and fully connect with the crowd, get people to pay attention, and inspire them to act.
Alex Daly is the founder of Vann Alexandra -- a creative services agency that gets projects financed through crowdfunding -- and is the industry's "Crowdsourceress," a name she received in the press for her expertise in crowdfunding. Alex has served on panels at distinguished film festivals and universities and is a featured columnist for the Big Think. Before transitioning into crowdfunding Alex was a producer and production manager; her films have been selected by the world's most prestigious festivals including Sundance and Tribeca. Before that, she was a journalist for numerous publications, including New York magazine and SPIN, as well as the sole researcher for WSJ magazine.
Co-presented by the Bay Area Video Coalition and Women Sports Film Festival and hosted at WeWork Civic Center.
