Seth Godin, Tribes and raising finance for business

 
$40,000 in three hours.
 
That’s how long it took Seth Godin to generate the funding for his next writing project on Kickstarters.
 
And the activity continued… just a few moments ago (07:49 Tuesday)
 
This worked because:

  • he has spent years creating value
  • he talks straight – no fluff
  • its a simple idea
  • people want to be in a tribe
  • average investment $70

 
I pledged $49.
 
Would I buy a book for $49?
 
No way.
 
But I just did.
 
Because I wanted to be a part of what was happening.
 
We learn from this.
