8 part Crowdfunding Online Course

Our 8-part online crowdfunding course will teach you everything you need to know in preparation to launch your campaign. The course contains: 7 hours of webinars (split over 6 topics), 2 hours of 1:1 consultation with a crowdfunding expert, 37 templates both online and in a physical workbook our Tip of the Day Calendar

With all this, we are sure your campaign will be a success! So much so, we offer a money back guarantee on our course if it is not. Organisations who take our training and complete all the templates and tasks are over 4x more likely to exceed their funding goal than those you try to crowdfund without expert support. The average crowdfund raise after taking out course is £36,211.

The training is set out as follows with a week between each training module (unless otherwise agreed). By the end of webinar 6 you will be ready to launch your campaign. Your strategy will have been laid out, you will have a crowd large enough to fund you and you will have made video and image content that we know from experience converts. You will also have written and scheduled all your social media content and emails, have your press releases ready to send out to selected journalists and will know what to expect and what you need to do as soon as that launch button has been hit. Most importantly, once the campaign has ended you will know how to make your backers fall even more in love with your organisation and continue supporting you in the medium to long term too!

What You’ll Learn

You will learn how to run an effective crowdfunding campaign. The course is broken down into 6 modules: planning, storytelling, building your crowd, creating the perfect project page, how to communicate your campaign and finally, once the campaign is over, how to follow up and retain your backers. Each module consists of a webinar as well as a handful of templates and downloads so you can create the content needed for that stage. There is a quiz at the end of each module to test your learning and additional resources for those looking to raise more or gain a deeper understanding as to why these strategies work. On top of this, you receive 2 hours of 1:1 consultation from one of our crowdfunding experts.
