Ugh this reminds me I need to get a non stupid kind of card to use with kickstarter, I totally want one of these.

Genuine, non cynical, no-alterior-motive question:

why does this need a kickstarter?

Chankgeez · Post by **Chankgeez** » Fri May 16, 2014 10:05 am

Why not?

Well, I'm not gonna speak for Ghost Ian, as I can only speculate.

Maybe he's trying a new business strategy?

I think Kickstarter campaigns can be useful in general for raising awareness of a new product.

He certainly got my attention.

Maybe you should ask him Ian to Ian?

I will enter this. But had no time today...
I'm such a sucked for Ians builds.

If I sort out my new bank card in time I will totally get one.

And as for why it's a kickstarter, I guess it's a simple way to offer a variety of different things. Functionally the same as making a regular preorder deal but less organising for the builder.

A few reasons I'm doing it this way, I think its good to check demand for it before committing to a run, tons of people do fuzzrites so I have no idea if people even want another!
I wanted to see how the whole process worked using kickstarter, I have a few ideas that would suit the platform, this fuzzrite thing is the first.
I thought it might even be good for marketing, and tbh it seems to have got some attention that I wouldn't have got if I had just out of the blue started doing these pedals!
Its only a small run so not a lot of risk involved for me and the customers.

Good answer, good answer.

Cool! I'm sorry for asking in hindsight
My perception of "what kicker is for" was perhaps biased.

Good luck with it
