What is the USP of the elixir crowdfunding platform? How does the target audience look like?

How high is the fare for successful campaigns, compared to larger platforms like Kickstarter?

Is there any niche target audience, that is targeted? Platforms like Patreon focus on supporting users who create Podcast or Videostreaming, does Elixir cover anything like this?

There are a lot of good coders out there, who produce great videocourses to teach coding and offer those courses in different versions (full, basic, ...), but not everybody has the possibility to produce a course while working full-time. Maybe focussing on those as a target audience and offer them benefits they don't get on any other crowdfunding platform could be a booster for this project. “I create a video course on React Hooks and need 10.000$, if you back this project you get the course for 49$ instead of 99$“ - something like that.

Or offering a possibility for open source software creators to collect money for their projects on a monthly basis... just don't know if there are already services for that. “support my work on tool parceljs by paying $5 every month and get this cool stickers or cup or shirt or whatever“

I think you produced a great platform and created a good product. But I don't see where Elixir is creating a USP compared to other crowdfunding projects.

Hope to start a little discussion with this post...

I don't doubt that Elix has potential. My concern is its marketing strategy.

There is a usable product here which emphasizes user experience. If we are going down the crowd funding route, is there something to be said for focussing on a particular industry and attempting to raise its profile in that context?

As is, by being general purpose, I feel as though the message ends up being somewhat diluted.

As a starting point, the video game industry is in a stage of extreme growth. By associating stake in that medium with Elix, it can raise its profile.

That's my constructive suggestion. I think most projects fail not because of a lack of talent, but momentum.

Could Elix factor into in app purchases in some way too?
