We’ve seen an increasing amount of craft-beer businesses using crowd-sourced fundraising campaigns like Kickstarter to start their biz. Some don’t work out so well so it’s nice to report a successful one…this from Growler & Gill’s Mike & Doreen Fitzgerald:
We raised over $12,000 in 30 days using the Kickstarter funding platform. 95 sponsors, mostly from the surrounding community, donated between $10-1000 to help get our craft beer shoppe off the ground. There were times when we thought were weren’t going to make our goal. Then a friend we hadn’t seen in 20 years came through with a big donation and we felt like it was possible. In the end, friends, family and the community believed in us and put us over the top.
