Seeking Experienced Partner for Successful Kickstarter Launch of a Unique 3D Anthropomorphic Character as a toy or gameboard

Hello Indie Hackers community,

I'm excited to share that I've created a unique 3D anthropomorphic character with big facial expressions. This character is family-friendly and has a distinctive charm that I believe will appeal to a broad audience.

I envision this character being featured on a variety of platforms, including clothing, toys, and board games. I'm now at the stage where I'm ready to introduce this character to the world, and I believe Kickstarter is the perfect platform for this launch.

In addition to seeking advice, I'm also looking for an experienced partner in the toy industry who can provide guidance and potentially join our team. If you have experience in this field and are interested in being part of an exciting project, I'd love to connect.

Specifically, I'm interested in learning more about:

1. Pre-launch strategies: How can I build hype and gather a following before the campaign goes live?
2. Campaign structure: What rewards and pledge levels have you found to be most effective?
3. Marketing and promotion: What strategies worked best for getting the word out about your campaign?
4. Post-campaign fulfillment: How did you manage the process of delivering rewards to backers?

I'm eager to learn from your experiences and apply your wisdom to my campaign. Any advice, big or small, would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Best,
