#25 We have a date for crowdfunding

Hello everyone!

In this post, we'll review what happened in 2017 and estimate what's to come, including the start date and time of the crowdfunding campaign :

January 2017

  • We're starting the year off right, with a factory at our disposal to do all the prototype testing we need.
  • We're revealing the results of our survey to find out your Baggicase preferences.
  • We discovered Ubrique after a call that changed the course of Baggicase .

February 2017

  • We're launching a beta testing campaign so 30 of you can try out the prototype . This way, the final version of Baggicase will be the result of your feedback.
  • We explain what the crowdfunding campaign will be like.
  • We tell you in detail about our exciting trip to Ubrique in search of a workshop that would create the covers.
  • We reveal the winners of the tester giveaway , and present them one by one ( top 15 / last 15 ) to the testers.

March 2017

April 2017

  • As a thank you for the great reception of the prototype, we are launching an interesting raffle .
  • We reveal the results of the packaging vote.
  • We decided to create a third case size to cover all smartphone sizes.

May 2017

  • We will make a second visit to Ubrique to iron out details of the first prototype.
  • We're finally hoping to receive the zippers we've been waiting for so long. As soon as we have them in Ubrique , prototypes will be made for testers .
  • Intense work preparing the campaign.

June 2017

  • We'll send the prototype to the testers . They'll have two to three weeks to try it out and share their ideas with us on social media. We can't wait to see you on the trails!
  • We will take the official photos and video for the campaign.
  • We will reveal some surprises .

July - August 2017

  • We'll create the final prototype , which you'll all be able to purchase during the campaign.

September 2017:

  • CROWDFUNDING CAMPAIGN START . The Baggicase crowdfunding campaign begins on September 6th at 5:00 PM. The campaign is 40 days long to reach our goal of €4,000.
  • We'll need all of you there , because it depends on all of us whether we succeed or not.

October 2017:

  • End of the campaign . There are two possibilities here:
  1. That we DON'T achieve the goal and therefore Baggicase will not be released and all this will remain as an impressive experience.
  2. We hope we achieve our goal and all backers receive their Baggicase . We'll create the company and market it online.

November-December 2017:

  • Sending rewards.

IMPORTANT: The dates I just gave you are approximate. They've been carefully considered, and it's highly likely we'll meet our deadlines. The initial goal was to launch crowdfunding in June, but that proved impossible, which is why we've had to rethink this.

See you next Friday!
