Crowdfunding for your Startup with Kane Jackson from Maslow

When you hear the word crowdfunding you might think about that Kickstarter you backed for that groovy new gadget that you may or may not have ever received, or the GoFundMe that you donated to help someone going through something terrible, but until recently you may not think of it as viable option for funding your startup.

 

One person who done much more than think about it is Kane Jackson, Kane is the cofounder and CEO of Maslow. A new fintech that is aiming to create a majority customer owned financial instution that serves and represents customers rather than profiting from them, and Maslow has just completed a very successful crowdfunding campaign. 

 

So, how does crowdfunding for startups work, who should try it, and what should you watch out for? We discuss this and more.

From Swivol Media and The Product Bus comes The Bootstrap: Building Startups from Scratch – your weekly source of news and practical support for bootstrapping founders – or founders building their business with their own effort and funds and no external investors.

Each episode, we start with one or two news items that bootstrapping founders need to know, and then host Scotty Allen (Founder of The Product Bus) is joined by a guest who brings their experience and subject matter to a specific topic with practical, actionable strategies that founders can take away and apply immediately to their own business.
