3rdNut created a humorous video, featuring an ancient "legend" and also featuring a less-than-fearless intern named Tommy (or Ned?) being "thrown" out of an airplane as an alternate way to raise awareness for the brand. The goal of the Indiegogo campaign is to raise 40K in capital to accelerate several key areas of the business including: a new line of custom action gear, action videos/content creation and improvements to its community website. The video is available at this link. http://igg.me/at/3rdnutgear/x/5082049
For their contribution, investors in 3rdNut's campaign will receive, unique, high quality merchandise that was created specifically for this campaign. This includes the apparel items one would expect like custom t-shirts, hoodies and active wear, but also include custom jewelry, a 3rdNut in a Box and much more. All perks will be delivered in time for Holiday gifting.
Co-Founder David Trujillo continues, "Indiegogo provides an excellent way to know if what you're working on has value for your customers in a very immediate and powerful way. If you're not passionate, focused and delivering what your fans and customers are looking for, they will let you know in real time. Out of all the crowd-funding tools available to us, Indiegogo provides the most robust analytical tools and the best customer support to get our message out. They really care about the entrepreneur.
"Small businesses now have an even playing field with the big guys, as evidenced by the very successful campaigns of many small startups and creators. Crowd-funding facilitates the kind of innovation and creativity that is so often stifled in large, lumbering corporations."
