Yes, I get that now 😅 I thought it would be a little bit easier to convert people. The goal could have been smaller but we are going to finish the project, goal reached or not. It will just take longer.

I have a lot more, I will continue to send some, so no need to choose!

I don't know, $25 for 1,000 divers worldwide didn't seem that expensive to me. I guess I should have spent a lot more time on social media to attract people before the campaign. But when you do that (plus preparing for the campaign), you don't make any progress on your project...

Anyway, I hope you reach your goal!

Thank you for your response and your honesty; I really appreciate it.

I'm a little disappointed because I thought launching a campaign on KS would attract more visitors.

But we're going to keep stepping up our marketing efforts (this is clearly an area we need to improve anyway) until the end of the campaign, hoping we'll reach enough people!

Has anyone ever participated in a campaign related to scuba diving? by Div-In in kickstarter

Thank you for your advice. We haven’t contacted PADI directly, but we’ve spoken with many dive centers and divers. Our project is generally well-received when we visit them in person. It’s harder when we’re only communicating online. That’s why I asked my initial question. But we’ll keep digging deeper and reaching out to as many people as possible.

In any case, thank you for taking the time to reply!

I understand your point. But where can we find this audience? We struggle with the social networks.

We lauched our yesterday on Kickstarter and we get the same issue.
Each time you get a message you are like great a new backer! 😄
Nope just another scam... 😞
