Several
blogs ago, I mentioned some cool startup projects seeking funding using Kickstarter.
I was happy to be able to contribute to Seth
Godin’s unique publishing transformation idea, which sought $40,000.00 in donations to publish his upcoming book- "The Icarus Deception: Why Make Art?" The dollar amount was
exceeded within 3 hours on
Kickstarter. So far, the project has more than 3,900 supporters and earned more than $267,000.00.
The project funding ends on Tuesday, July 17th.
Seth’s has
built an amazing tribe of followers who are very loyal
towards his art. If you get an opportunity to catch his blog or purchase any of his books,
do so. If you want to hear him speak at a conference- act
quickly; Seth Godin’s lectures sell- out in a matter of minutes.
Why? Because
what Seth offers is rare and sometimes free. His foresight and advice in marketing
and business is cutting edge. His
broad marketing research is undeniable.
Mr. Godin
initiates trends and proves their success by accomplishing the act himself within the public’s view. No
test run, no survey, a decision is made and without
fear, he walks the talk.
Seth is
willing to take risks because he knows the art he creates are opportunities. Opportunity’s are the future and the future is
now!
Besides,
Seth has created a tribe and a tribe of people can make things happen quickly.
He is relentless in his ideology and is always pushing the boundaries. Change
is constant so his followers are never bored.
Mr. Godin
often states the importance to
finish, do it, ship it or simply get it done. Fear is not
an option. That’s why he has the Midas
touch. The
Kickstarter project is an excellent example of this concept.
Congrats to Seth Godin and his tribe!
Until We Meet Again,
