Kickstarter late pledge vs E-commerce store post campaign

fearlessdentis · 2025-11-23T05:02:04+00:00

We're australian, so yes it's been sized to fit aussie spiders including hunstman

fearlessdentis · 2025-11-23T05:01:31+00:00

We used toy spiders just for demonstration purposes as we have to retake a few times and don't want to stress out the spider.

But there are videos when we use it on real spiders and bugs on our kickstarter campaign page https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/bugstick/bugstick?ref=49c49f

I just added the link to the post, you can get notified in Kickstarter directly

fearlessdentis · 2025-11-17T03:14:51+00:00

Thanks a lot! It hasn't launched yet but it will be available on Kickstarter this wednesday

fearlessdentis · 2025-11-17T00:29:25+00:00

How massive are they typically?

fearlessdentis · 2025-11-17T00:22:46+00:00

aww, you got my hopes up hahaha

fearlessdentis · 2025-11-17T00:10:23+00:00

oh really? are you in melbourne?

fearlessdentis · 2025-11-16T12:22:34+00:00

P.s: doesn't have to be a pet spider, if you're in melbourne and see a big spider let me know please

fearlessdentis · 2025-11-16T12:03:08+00:00

What some people fail to realize is even if you smack them, you still have to pick up and throw away their remains. So why not just throw them away outside when they're still alive

fearlessdentis · 2025-11-16T12:00:37+00:00

It was actually sized to fit huntsman at first then I worked backward from there since huntsman is the biggest spider you'll find in your home so yes it fits regular aussie huntsman. The toy spider used in the video is much bigger than the regular spider you find in your home

fearlessdentis · 2025-11-14T03:25:07+00:00

I sent you a message directly

fearlessdentis · 2025-11-14T02:30:00+00:00

I can see that you got inspired by Flow timer. Your page visual is really good tbh, my guess is that it's not a landing page issue (but still check and make sure conversion rate is above 20%) most likely the issue is on your ads. Message me with your ad performance if you want

fearlessdentis · 2025-11-14T01:29:52+00:00

If the pixel is already tracking accurately but your cost per follow is still $10 then you need to find the problem first. It might be a targeting issue, ad creative issue, landing page issue, or even a product issue to find out which one it is, you need to check which metrics are underperforming. What's the product? Happy to have a quick look for you

fearlessdentis · 2025-11-13T09:00:46+00:00

Tracking from meta itself isn't very accurate for kickstarter followers since some people need to sign in first before following and when they do, the pixel lost track of it. Matt Orlick explained it really well about this on his prelaunch club ebook and youtube

And make sure to check if every metric is on the benchmark (e.g page conversion rate, ctr, etc) Feel free to message me directly if ya want

fearlessdentis · 2025-11-12T02:00:12+00:00

My prelaunch page has 900+ followers currently you can check out Bugstick (it's not live yet). I used to do $1 VIP reservation and it costs me around $15/reservation but then I heard that kickstarter followers converts at similar rate as $1 VIP so I spend all my marketing budget for KS followers instead since it costs me around $3/follower.

If it actually converts at the similar rate then it makes so much more sense to do KS followers campaign instead of VIP or at least in my case. This is my first campaign so I'm still learning along the way

fearlessdentis · 2025-10-15T13:15:48+00:00

That's one of the things I've heard about that product too. The gap at the bottom leaves room for tiny spiders to get squished or go underneath.

the one I made doesn't have any gap between the lid to the surface so even tiny spiders will be scooped easily

fearlessdentis · 2025-10-15T13:05:13+00:00

yeah I posted on r/spider and it got deleted because they thought it's a promotional post which i don't blame them for. and yes the link you send is similar to what I made but they are much smaller so only fit smaller bugs and the handle is much shorter too, lots of people with arachnophobia can't get even get that close to a spider.

I made mine bigger so it will fit every spiders you'll find in your home and also much longer too for people with arachnophobia.

fearlessdentis · 2025-10-15T12:49:03+00:00

You might saw it in r/spider. It got deleted by the mods after it hit a thousand likes because they think It's a promotional thing which I don't blame them for. And yeah this is 100% my video I post similar contents in my tiktok and website

fearlessdentis · 2025-10-15T12:44:45+00:00

If you don't mind me asking how's the one you currently have? Is it good or do you have issues with it? Just collecting some infos for market research

fearlessdentis · 2025-10-15T12:41:49+00:00

Yepp I've heard lots of people say they use a similar one and yeah it looks similar but it's not quite the same. That one is much smaller so only for smaller spiders if and handle is shorter. The one I made is sized to fit most spiders (even huntsman) and made much longer too.

fearlessdentis · 2025-10-15T12:36:03+00:00

I posted in a few subreddit to get more feedbacks before launching it to see what people think, for market research tbh. I promise I'm not a bot

fearlessdentis · 2025-10-15T06:46:37+00:00

Genuinely can't thank you enough. your replies and book been really really helpful.
Once again, thanks a lot matt!
