Crowdfunding on SomeDayNow is designed to be personal and goal-oriented. By linking your campaign directly to your bucket list, you show donors exactly what dream they are helping you achieve.

???? 4 Steps to Launch

1. Link to a Bucket List Goal

A campaign on SomeDayNow must be attached to a specific "Dream."

• Go to your Bucket List.

• Select the item you want to fund (e.g., "Skydiving in Dubai" or "Learning to Sail").

• Click the "Crowdfund This" button to initiate the campaign setup.

2. Set Your Target & Duration

• Funding Goal: Be specific. Break down the costs in your description (e.g., Flight: £400, Course: £600).

• Deadline: Most successful campaigns run for 30–45 days. Short enough to create urgency, long enough to spread the word.

• Wallet Check: Ensure your User Wallet is active so you can receive the donations immediately.

3. Tell Your Story

Donors give to people, not just projects.

• The "Why": Why is this dream important to you?

• Visuals: Upload a compelling cover image or a short "pitch video." Campaigns with videos raise significantly more than those without.

• Impact: Explain what happens if you exceed your goal (e.g., "Extra funds will go toward a GoPro to document the journey").

4. Promotion & The "Dream Loop"

• Share Tokens: Use your unique shareable links and QR codes to post on social media.

• Personal Network: Reach out to friends and family first. Seeing 5-10% funded makes strangers more likely to donate.

• The Dream Loop: You can use your own wallet balance to "kickstart" your campaign, showing others that you are also personally invested in the goal.
