The world is full of creative people. There are so many great dreams in the world that when brought to reality can change the world for good. I know of people with creativity and innovation who could not show the world their worth because of some certain conditions around them. Shall it continue to be this way?
The dream may be there. The idea is so clear but the resources to actualize these dreams are expensive. Not everyone can afford the cost involved in setting up the next big social media network. Not everyone can finance the production of the next super app. So many hands are tied because of limitation. Limitations beyond their control.

Crowdfunding is the solution. I know you may be aware of this term before or may be not. Crowdfunding is a financial process where a ‘crowd’ donates or contribute a certain amount of money to an individual or group to help fund a cause or project. Crowdfunding has been around for some while now. Before it gained internet presence, it has been done offline.

Traditional fundraising was practiced by many back in the days to raise funds for anything. But their reach was limited because of differences in locations. Now modern crowdfunding is no longer limited by location or distance because anybody in the world can make a donation no matter their location.
Through crowdfunding, so many products have been manufactured, so many services rendered and so many dreams achieved.
It starts this way: Get a good product or cause, share it with the world and solicit for funds. You will get pledges from people who love your project or cause. Is this that easy? No but it works if you know how to crowdfund. I will teach you how to start a crowdfunding campaign in my next article and show you how to run a successful campaign.
So my dear reader, crowdfunding is the solution. Let the world know about your project, convince them to help you make it a reality. Offer some perks or rewards to your donors encourage them and always keep your backers updated.
