We highlight the dangers of underestimating customer engagement, overstretching yourself, and unhealthy comparisons. We underline the power of communication and the necessity of seeking audience feedback.
We remind you that no company is too big to fail and that each Kickstarter campaign should be treated uniquely. Finally, we discuss the importance of continuous learning and wrap up with some valuable resources.
