As many of you already know, we have chosen to use the funding platform kickstarter.com to launch our first product; the Ljung Outdoor Pants. But why have we chosen to use Kickstarter? This platform helps aspiring entrepreneurs to get started by acting as a crowdfunding resource. By collecting pre-orders from those who like our idea and product, we can get some of the funding we need before we start the big production.
We’ve been stunned by how supporters on Kickstarter can show up and create fantastic momentum for a project through sheer enthusiasm and support. Backers (your) shares, questions and comments all intensify the story and prove that the little guys with good ideas can shake up an entire industry if we get the chance to get the word out there.
By backing us on our first product, through this coming Kickstarter campaign, you will help Norra come alive. We have great plans for this brand and we promise you won’t regret that :).
Below we have compiled and answered some questions that we think that you could have about the campaign, and that also are frequently asked for other Kickstarter projects. If there is anything else you wonder, please comment below.
