For Those Who Want to Try Crowdfunding Themselves | I Created a 12-Chapter Practical Course
機械翻訳 / Machine-translated
"I want to try crowdfunding."
But I don't know where to start.
How do I develop a project? How much should my funding goal be? How do I find people who will support me?
For people like you, I created a course that will help you prepare for and launch your own crowdfunding campaign using your own abilities.
It's called the "Do-It-Yourself Crowdfunding Practical Course."
In 2017, I tried crowdfunding for the first time.
My goal was 1,000,000 yen.
But the amount I actually raised was about 30,000 yen.
At the time, I thought that if I published the page and shared it on social media, people who were interested would support me.
But it wasn't that simple.
Looking back now, there was so much I hadn't thought through — who would support me, why they would want to cheer me on, and what I should have prepared before launching.
After that, starting in 2018, I became involved in supporting crowdfunding campaigns and have helped with over 150 projects.
Through that experience, I've come to strongly believe that the results of a crowdfunding campaign change dramatically depending on the preparation done before it goes live.
There are several ways to run a crowdfunding campaign.
You can prepare with an expert, or you can learn as you go and tackle it yourself.
I personally offer hands-on support for crowdfunding campaigns.
However, not everyone can hire an expert.
"I want to try doing it myself first."
"I want to keep costs as low as possible."
"I haven't decided on a project yet, but I want to understand what crowdfunding can do."
I thought there should be a way for people like this to take their first step too.
That's what led me to create this practical course.
The "Do-It-Yourself Crowdfunding Practical Course" is a one-time-purchase online course that anyone can learn from, starting from zero.
The content covers six main areas:
Project Development: Turning what you want to do into a project people will want to support
Goal & Reward Design: Thinking through the funding you need and what you'll offer in return
Page Creation: Writing text that conveys your passion and plan
Pre-Launch Preparation: Building connections with people who will support you
Running the Campaign: Planning your approach for the opening, middle, and final week
Post-Campaign Follow-Up: Sending thanks, delivering rewards, and connecting to your next steps
In practice, these are broken down into 12 chapters to learn through.
Each chapter includes study PDFs, worksheets, and more.
Even if you don't have a specific project in mind yet, you can practice using a hypothetical one.
I also share free content on MirAI Page about crowdfunding preparation, funding goals, rewards, attracting supporters, and more.
I'll continue publishing free articles.
However, gaining knowledge from reading articles and actually being able to move your own project forward are two different things.
"How much do I actually need for my situation?"
"Who should I reach out to?"
"What should I write on my page?"
In this course, you'll work through questions like these using practical exercises and turn them into concrete actions.
I also introduce ways to use AI where appropriate, but this is not about having AI fabricate fictional facts.
The idea is to use AI as a tool to help you shape your own experiences and feelings into something tangible — yourself.
That philosophy is something I hold dear.
Here is an overview of the course:
Course Name: Do-It-Yourself Crowdfunding Practical Course
Price: 29,800 yen (tax included)
Contents: 12-chapter online course, PDFs, worksheets, templates, and more
How to Take It: Study at your own pace from your smartphone or PC
How to Purchase: Bank transfer or credit card payment arrangements made via official LINE account
Please note that individual Zoom consultations, individual feedback, and individual consulting are not included.
This course also does not guarantee that you will reach your funding goal or pass a platform's screening process.
It is a course for thinking, preparing, and taking action on your own.
Crowdfunding isn't only for special people.
But it's also not a system where support just pours in simply because you've published a page.
That's exactly why there are things I want you to know before you take on the challenge.
I've organized the lessons from my own failures and from what I've learned in real-world campaigns into a format that first-timers can use.
Rather than leaving it to someone else, you want to move forward with your own challenge yourself.
I'd be happy if this course can be of use to people like you.
