KICKSTART
YOUR NEXT IDEA
WITHOUT WASTING TIME AND MONEY!
Already Know What You want?
AS A SUCCESSFUL CREATOR, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT HAVING AN EDGE CAN MAKE ALL THE DIFFERENCE!
Kickstarter helps cover your costs up front. Most importantly it gives you access to a new audience who love your ideas and want to be part of your journey.
We call that AN EDGE WORTH HAVING.
Kickstarter for Creators will help you hone that edge and give you an advantage in your field.

BUT A Crowdfunding Machine can change
EVERYTHING!
Whether you write novels, create comics, design games, shoot films, or manufacture physical goods you need to cover your costs at some stage. Some entrepreneurs secure funding from banks and/or investors. But let’s be real. Most of us bootstrap it along the way, hanging on by a shoestring while hoping to eventually see a return for our blood, sweat, and tears. Especially in the beginning. But even after becoming successful, many still only see a return AFTER creating and marketing their product.
But what if you could cover your costs WITHOUT external investors? What if you didn’t have to WAIT for your product to go live on Amazon, your web store, or other marketplace? What if you didn’t have to CLAW your investment back later?
This is why I created Kickstarter for Creators.
It teaches you to design a crowdfunding machine you can turn on when you need to fund your next project. And once you’ve dialed in your system, the machine can seamlessly run in the background, generating funding while freeing you up to do what you do best: Create!
Sound crazy?
Once you look under the hood you realize it isn’t. Seeing your idea turn into a tangible product, all because your community wanted to help make it possible, is incredible.
And VERY achievable!
The problem is most entrepreneurs are so tied up in creating and building a business that adding crowdfunding into the mix can seem daunting. Or they just don’t have time to add yet another thing to their ever-growing list of tasks.
“Because you can’t afford to not fund your Ideas!”
When starting I had NO IDEA what I was doing. So I started small.
1st Kickstarter = $3,700
2nd Kickstarter = $111,000
Now I want to help YOU raise funding on Kickstarter.
I’ve already helped dozens of people raise funding for their projects
Like in the examples below…

Paddy Finn is a great resource for authors who want to use Kickstarter to launch new books. I did my first campaign last May with one book, Eamon, (no backlist to speak of) and was able to raise almost $13k with contributors piling in each day. No giant lull in the middle. Kickstarter looks straightforward on the surface, but to navigate the site effectively and pull off a successful campaign takes research and commitment – and a helping hand who has studied it inside and out. That’s Paddy Finn.

By the time I ran my first Kickstarter I was making 6 figures a year as an indie author, so I knew a thing or two about online sales. But crowdfunding was a different beast, and honestly…I was terrified.
I thought…
I’m not ready!
Why would anyone in their right mind fund my idea?
It’s too difficult to get started.
I have no idea where to begin!
I’m an author. Not a crowdfunder!
If I do commit to this, maybe the crowds will just come. (Spoiler alert. They didn’t.)
HAVE YOU EVER FELT LIKE THAT?
Generating ideas, starting projects, building a community…There were so many things to do, I had no idea where to begin!
Despite trying every trick in the book I couldn’t gain the traction I wanted.
Part of me was content to keep trying with the hope I would finally get my “big break”. Was it Einstein who said that insanity is repeating the same thing and expecting different results? I decided to change my approach and started researching what had worked for others. And I realized that crowdfunding, though seemingly complex, was just another way to generate income online. The difference was that crowdfunding paid up front with backers willing to wait for the product to be created and produced. Because backers want to be part of the creation process…part of something bigger than any one person can achieve on their own.
In retrospect, it seems silly that I thought “I wasn’t ready” to build something so powerful.
My only regret is that I didn’t do it sooner!
I raised 7 figures in crowdfunding in just 2 years.
I launched dozens of successful crowdfunding campaigns.
I grew a large community with many members eager to back each campaign.
I added 30+ new products to a catalogue that generates direct sales on my web store.
WHEN I PIVOTED…EVERYTHING CHANGED!
I learned how crowdfunding works and how backers think.
I helped dozens of other creators to launch successful projects.
I grew a small creative team who I work with to release multiple products each year.
I designed a powerful system that can raise funding for new projects AND the next stage of business growth.
ACHIEVING SUCCESS ON KICKSTARTER IS
SIMPLER THAN YOU MIGHT THINK
AND I WANT TO SHOW YOU HOW!
Kickstarter can free up bandwidth, allowing you can focus on the rest of your business. If approached wisely, it can create space to do things you probably couldn’t do otherwise. Like:
Focus on neglected, yet essential, parts of your business.
Experiment with ideas that have been gathering dust on the shelf of your mind for lack of resources.
Expand into related markets.
Identify and pursue exciting new opportunities.
There’s something to be said for building a funding machine that you can switch on before kicking off a new project.
And like any machine, it simply consists of a bunch of parts you can put together.

Paddy Finn was generous enough to meet with me before we launched our first ever Kickstarter. We raised $60,000 and successfully funded our tv show pilot. He definitely knows what he's talking about.
Kickstarter for Creators is here to help!
Sometimes we find ourselves stuck in a rut where we can’t seem to move on to the next stage despite trying everything.
But life has a way of leading us there in the end.
You stand on a platform before a train that can take you on the next leg of your journey.
You can take the long way round, of course, navigating the twists and turns on your own. Or we can embark on a different path together.
Making change is rarely easy. And Kickstarter might seem like a bit of a jump. But you don’t achieve radical transformation by taking moderate steps.
Kickstarter for Creators will guide you every step of the way and before you know it you’ll be running full tilt on your own steam.
IN FACT, BY THE TIME
YOU FINISH KICKSTARTER for Creators,
YOU’LL HAVE THE FOLLOWING:
3 Kickstarter campaigns under your belt.
A thriving new audience who are eager to back your ideas.
An automated mailing sequence for converting new leads into ravenous backers.
A growing email list.
An understanding of how to craft engaging graphics and provoking copy.
The knowledge and experience you need to take future Kickstarter campaigns to the next level.
A powerful crowdfunding machine that YOU own and that YOU can switch on any time you need to fund a new project.

Paddy was very helpful. He gave me great advice about my first kickstarter campaign and it was funded within a few days…I ran 4 successful campaigns and all of them were over 200% funded. If I didn't have his help, I wouldn't have achieved such success.

MEET THE CREATOR
I had ZERO idea how to use Kickstarter before working with Kickstarter for Creators. My partners and I wanted to launch our interactive comic but the platform and what we heard about it felt a bit overwhelming. KSM walked us through set up, provided proper templates that made us look more professional, and guided us through the strategy needed to complete two successful campaigns for a total of just over $10k. We now have the revenue needed to invest in our project and intend to run 3 more Kickstarters in the new year.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUEStiONS
HOW LONG DO I HAVE ACCESS TO THE COURSE?
Purchasing Kickstarter for Creators gives you life-time access to the course.
WHAT IF THE PLATFORMS IN THE COURSE SUDDENLY CHANGE?
Not to worry. Not only do you get lifetime access, course content will be update regularly. I do my best to make sure everything is up to date and I tend to overhaul things entirely every once in a while. Rest assured that if there are major interface changes on Kickstarter or any other platform I talk about, I’ll update content as soon as possible.
WHAT IF I NEED MORE HELP?
You got it! You have access to the exclusive FORGE Facebook group where you can ask questions. Members of my team and I will do what we can to answer your questions in as timely a manner as possible. As the community grows, those with some experience will also be able to chip in. You also get 2 x 121 sessions with me, but I recommend that you save those for after your first Kickstarter campaign so you get the most value possible.
DO YOU OFFER CONSULTATION OR MENTORSHIP?
At the time of writing this I still offer both, but since my time is limited I do charge a lot for these services. My mentorship calendar in particular tends to be booked out at least 6 - 12 months in advance, so I can’t guarantee anything. Also, don’t forget that you get 2 consultations as part of Kickstarter for Creators. But don’t use those until you’ve done enough of the course to run your first campaign.
WHY DOES PAYING INSTALLMENTS COST MORE?
I want to make this course as accessible as possible, so I‘ve added an option to spread the cost. But paying installments incurs additional administrative costs which we need to factor into the cost of the course.
MONEY BACK GUARANTEE
Turns out that Kickstarter for Creators isn’t for you?
No worries!
Just email me within 30 days of your purchase and I’ll issue a refund no questions asked.
THE NEXT STEP IN YOUR JOURNEY
ONLY YOU CAN TAKE THE NEXT STEP IN YOUR JOURNEY.
AND ONLY YOU KNOW WHAT THAT NEXT STEP LOOKS LIKE.
I SIMPLY PROPOSE CROWDFUNDING AS AN OPTION.
Whether you’re an author, designer, illustrator, comic book creator, filmmaker, game developer, or inventor building a crowdfunding machine can up-front project costs so you don’t have to.
I can show you HOW to build that machine, but only you can TAKE ACTION. That starts with investing in your education, and it takes time, but having such a machine at your fingertips gives you an edge at the very least and has the potential to change everything.
You CAN reap the rewards of owning a crowdfunding machine, but you have to ask yourself:
“Do I really WANT to build one?”
If your answer is yes, I’m here to help!
