Expand commentHi Sushant, I think choosing the right platform for your project is very important too. If you don't have success with Indiegogo, there are other crowdfunding platforms like Seed & Spark that have more socially conscious and diverse projects featured. There are new platforms that seek diverse voices. Along with Seed & Spark, a newer platform is "Support Our Story" that might be a better fit. But I wish you success with Indiegogo!
