Kickstarter, Indiegogo, Crowdfunder, RocketHub, Seed&Spark - the list goes on. These are but a few of the 2000+ sites to which billions of dollars have been pledged, and the available resources to learn how to run a successful crowdfunding campaign are endless. When it comes to the nitty gritty down-and-dirty work of running a campaign, every "crowdfunding expert" and "crowdsourceress" has their own go-to tips and tricks they steadily rely on.

Our goal is to show you the objective patterns of over 200 collective campaigns and what you can learn from them. Sundance Institute staffer Missy Laney will moderate and enforce a Truth-Only Chautauqua about what works. No sales pitches allowed.
