4 Ways To Pick The Right Crowdfunding Consultant
Now that you have that profitable concept in mind, you are looking for steady supporters and financial assistance to help your campaign materialize. But the problem is, you are not too confident of handling your campaign and if managed irresponsibly, all your efforts could go down south.
Crowdfunding consultant are becoming a popular sensation and for good reason. These folks can help you manage your campaign from the outset and can help you with your funding goals. Whether you lack the technical know-how to manage the day-to-day operations of your campaign or you need professional advice, crowd-funding consultants promise to make your campaigns viral and more, for a fee!
If you are spending money to hire a crowdfunding consultant, here are a few points that you could consider -
Check The Track Record A multidisciplinary consultant should be able to show a high success rate to justify the full value of the fees he/she is charging. Ask your consultant or the company that the consultant is working for, to present solid proof on the success rates of the last 5 campaigns he/she has worked on.
Gee, Fee! If you are planning to raise a very menial sum of money, a crowdfunding consultant may be of little or no use to you. However, if we are talking big numbers, you should be willing to shell out the money, because crowdfunding is a lot of work. From pre-campaign work, to promotions and personalized advice, a consultant has to handle everything. Though fees may vary, find out what suits your plan best. At the end of the day, ‘you get what you pay for’.
Sound PR Skills A competent consultant is someone who understands the crowdfunding landscape, has sound reasoning abilities, and is a public relations giant- someone who is well-connected to the media, has good social and digital media marketing skills and has the right industrial connections.
Go For A ‘Listener’ Right from the get-go, if your consultant seems to brash or wants to take control of your whole campaign without having to hear what you have to say, you know what to do. Though a consultant is paid for handling your campaign and giving you advice, watch out if he/she is showing signs of being too meddlesome. Talk to your consultant and make sure he/she is all ears for what you have to say and how you would like the campaign to be run. The communication channel should be open both ways and make sure you explicitly detail how you would like certain aspects of your campaign to be managed. If you find a ‘listener’, you have a winner!
