Kickstarter tips?

I'm curious if anyone here has had success with Kickstarter. If so can you share what worked for you? I just launched, and hit 7% funded in the first 3 hours, but definitely can't sustain that rate. At this point I'm relying on my email list and I'm going to start up some targeted Facebook ads tomorrow. Any pointers would be appreciated! Here's the Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1667922048/compelling-science-fiction-the-first-collection

    Congrats on the launch and seems like you'll reach your goal.

    Just some background on Hyperstarter, we work on Kickstarter campaigns and are listed in the Top 9 Kickstarter Marketing Agencies.

    Ok on to your page. It's pretty bare bones right now, some imagery, titles and key features of your publication would help a lot.

    Keep posting Updates, as it shows existing and potential backers you're still active.

    My suggestion is to get the word out through pitching and outreach. Social media might be a quick way to do it and then follow-up with an email.

    I wrote a quick guide on the Top 100 Crowdfunding Influencers at: https://medium.com/@hyperstarter/100-free-places-to-promote-your-kickstarter-campaign-ebd93a1163f6

    Hope all this advice is useful!
