Since Kickstarter was founded in 2009 it has been the go-to crowdfunding platform for entrepreneurs. Kickstarter lets you circumnavigate traditional forms of raising funds; as such, they claim no ownership over the projects that come from the funding, and they take a 5% flat rate of the funds raised.
We've had a lot of entrepreneurs fund projects on Kickstarter and grow their business on Shopify. We asked the people behind eleven of the most successful Kickstarter campaigns to share some of their experiences and wisdom in raising capital on Kickstarter and moving on to running a successful ecommerce store.
