It seems like to get funded on kickstarters you need a professional video or a prototype, and we don’t have either. We thought about the video but decided it would cost money to get done, and take longer to produce so we made it on our own. As far as the prototype it would really cost around 5-6k to get to that point. Seems like many of these companies are actual design firms that already have produced the product and are using kickstarter as a marketing forum. With that said, I think the right idea could still be pretty successful.
You should find some cool entrepreneur clubs on campus and meet people. Looking back I wish I had networked with more people on campus that could help with these sort of things (designers, programs, graphics people) now I just try to find them online.
I have a couple more website ideas I am trying to develop and I’ll see if the concepts workout. I just see lots of opportunity out there, and people developing simple apps, and sites that end up getting several million dollars to continue to develop the product. I think about Siri and where that is taking technology and what a good app or website that could utilize voice. To some extent I feel like I’ve missed the iPhone revolution, but there will be another one, just have to be patient .
