Welcome to Unboxing Spiel. Part Two: KICKSTARTER.

We talk about:

The boardgame ‘Sell Sheet’

Breaking Games – sell sheet and prototype

Publisher contacts

The question of whether to self-publish or growdfund it via Kickstarter pledges?

Royalty versus MSRP?

Making video, CGI, playthrough, instructions, explaining strategy etc.

What do you need for a Kickstarter campaign?

What is your print run going to be?

Who else to involve? Outsourcing manufacturer, marketing, post campaign provider (BackerKit) for logistics, post-release…

Kickstarter say “if you think you’re ready for Kickstarter, you’re not ready!”

300 to 500 relevant email addresses.

Thank you for listening to Unboxing Spiel.

The music used is “Sorry” by Comfort Fit.
