Crowdfunding Campaigner February Issue

Crowdfunding has come a long way since the first publication and generated funding for projects that would never succeed without public support. The challenges remain the same and, in some respects, may be considered worse because of the current global financial climate.

As we move into a new norm, we all have had to react in an agile and decisive way. To address the new norm, we have targeted six topics and will publish Crowdfunding Campaigner Magazine on a bimonthly basis. We consider the topics listed below to be on the minds of many and impactful on a global scale.

Wellness is not just the absence of disease or illness. It is a combination of physical, mental, emotional and social factors. Wellbeing is linked to happiness and life satisfaction and could be described as how we feel about our self and our life.

The factors that influence wellness are interrelated for example, a job provides not just money but purpose, goals, friendships and a sense of belonging. Some factors also make up for the lack of others. For example, a good marriage can compensate for a lack of friendships, while religious beliefs may help a person come to terms with physical illness.

Money can also be linked to wellness because we may relate having enough money improves living conditions and increases social status. However, happiness may increase with income but only to a point of perspective and what may be considered as enough. Various international studies have shown that it’s the quality of our personal relationships, not the size of our bank balance, which has the greatest effect on our state of wellbeing. Believing that money is the key to happiness can also harm a person’s wellbeing. For example, a person who chooses to work a lot of overtime misses out on time with family, friends and leisure activities.

Wellness can also be impacted by the added stress of long working hours that also reduces job satisfaction. Chasing ‘extrinsic’ goals like money and fame are create anxiousness, depression and dissatisfaction.

Measuring wellness is difficult because the interpretation of wellness is so subjective but a typical approach to measuring wellbeing is to count the number of individuals affected by a particular factor.

In these challenging times wellbness is important to all of us and the solutions, groups and studies backed by crowdfunding campaigns and investors will help in improving many lives.

An Australian consumer study into wellness showed that:

  • 58% wish they could spend more time on improving their health and wellbeing.
  • 79% of parents with children aged less than 18 years of age wish they could spend more time on improving their health and wellbeing.
  • 83% are prepared to pay more money for products or services that enhance their feelings of wellbeing.
  • Develop groups to maintain strong relationships with family, friends and social networks.
  • Create groups that encourage work that is enjoyable and rewarding, rather than just working for the best pay.
  • Solutions to support healtier living.
  • Technologies, clubs and guides to help in supporting physical activity.
  • Become involved in activities that interest you.
  • Create organisations or clubs that appeal to those in need.
  • Methods to develop self-belief and achievable goals.
  • Solution to support feeling optimistic and enjoying each day.

Meletrix TKL AE: Keyboard Customization Made Easy

We are a group of keyboard enthusiasts who were tired of seeing the same generic keyboard options in the off the shelf market. So we put our heads together and formed Meletrix, to create the perfect board for you that requires no further tuning to achieve a great sound and typefeel!

The Story

We first want to thank the multiple users who shared their comments, suggestions, and feedback with us! Your opinions are extremely valuable. The comments we got the most showed a preference for a 75-80% mechanical keyboard, and after much consideration and discussion, we decided to work on an 80% mechanical design, which is the ZOOM TKL you see today.

The Zoom TKL AE  is a mechanical keyboard with a compact layout, perfect for gamersprogrammers, and writers.

The ZOOM TKL is an 80% mechanical keyboard with new color variants, upgraded gasket mounts, and a custom witches. Of course, we’ve kept everything you love, including the amazing feel, hot-swappable options, and multiple colors to choose from.

Designed with only one goal in mind – to give you the perfect typing experience. Every detail of the keyboard has been well thought out, analyzed, and designed to perfection.

After selecting Perk, we offer 15 add-on options. You can also purchase an extra back plate to DIY your board.

The ZOOM TKL is an all-aluminum, gasket-mounted 80% mechanical keyboard designed for both novice and experienced users.

We designed modular back plate for both the top and bottom for users to customize the look of their keyboard.

Of course, style matters! What could be more compelling than the ZOOM TKL keyboard on your desktop Settings?

In addition, customization has been expanded to include back plateswitches, and keyboard case.

Zoom TKL PCB features the industry standard Kailh hot-swap sockets to mount switches. You simply brace the back of the PCB and push switches on, no soldering required! Go from a tactile keyboard to a linear one, in just minutes!

Changing switches is a breeze, you can switch from linear to tactile in just a few seconds, all on the same keyboard!

Fall in love with your keyboard! We made every detail, from the keycaps to the switches and more, customizable. No detail has been left untouched!

Everyone has their own preference for the feel and sound of their keyboard, and with us, you’ll never have to compromise again! We offer 2 different switches styles for you to choose from, including the custom WS Switch and the special Swift Switch.

Changing switch is a breeze, you can switch from linear to tactile in just a few seconds, all on the same keyboard!

You’ll be able to switch any key on your keyboard to any other popular mechanical switch type, including Cherry MX, Gateron MX, Kailh MX, and more! With ZOOM TKL, you can customize your typing experience to suit your needs.

Our design philosophy was to put the typing experience first – to make sure that all instead of only the things you need to type are on the keyboard and nothing else. We designed the keyboard at a 5° angle, lowering the height of the bottom edge of the keyboard for more comfortable typing.

The ZOOM TKL is ergonomically designed to reduce hand fatigue and provide an efficient, comfortable typing experience for people who spend hours on the keyboard every day.

We have added additional distance compared to standard between the function keys and the alphanumerics to prevent accidental key presses.

This all-inclusive kit comes with PBT keycaps, a pre-lubricated switches, screw-in stabilizers,  a flex-cut PCB and boards, and all the other components needed to build the board, providing a comfortable, premium mechanical keyboard experience.

The use of a gasket isolation mounting construction delivers a soft, cushioned, and pleasing typing feel that won’t strain your fingers even after hours of typing.

Compared to typical off-the-shelf tray-mounted keyboards, gasket mounted keyboards sound better and feel more even across the board.

With polycarbonate plates, high quality Poron foam, and a flexible cut PCB, each key redefines “force” interactions. Typing feels sharp, but there is a soft bounce that makes each keystroke smooth and firm.

Every keystroke is crisp and clean, each bottom out feeling is soft and comfortable.

The carefully designed stabilizers are equipped with a high quality stabilizer pad. The factory designed stabilizer achieves a clearer and non-ticking sound, making the Zoom TKL sound more like classical music than heavy metal.

The feet of the keyboard are now longer and soften the sound more effectively. To achieve a stable and deeper sound, we changed the small round feet to a single long bar. The lower foot bar fills the four screw holes, making the keyboard more stable and further dampening the sound of the keys.

The Bluetooth PCB is fully compatible with VIA, the powerful GUI widely renowned for its customizability and ease of use. Remap any key on the keyboard on 4 different layers. Use built in powerful shortcuts and macros, or make your own key definitions! 

The added function keys will improve your productivity at work and upgrade your gaming experience. Use the F13 key to customize your shortcut keys to be more efficient and get more done!

With the ability to switch between layouts, it’s the perfect keyboard for people who want more out of their typing experience.

Unlike traditional keyboards, you are not stuck with just one layout on Zoom TKL! Change things up every now and then with split backspace, left shift, and spacebar! You can also switch between normal and stepped caps lock or ANSI. 

Equipped with a Bluetooth 5.0 chipset, up to 3 devices can be connected simultaneously and you can seamlessly switch between screens with the press of a hotkey.

Easily use the Zoom TKL with your PC / Mac/tablet/phone. The PCB polls at 1000hz in wired mode, and the included battery lasts for weeks between charges. Customize any key with your VIA application on Windows, Mac, or Linux.

Enjoy lag-free gameplay even at longer distances. The keyboard is also available in 6 different colors to suit every gamer’s style and needs.

ZOOM TKL is a great tool for content makers. Your audience will never have to worry about their keyboards running out of power again. Wireless connectivity ensures that your audience can go anywhere without the added hassle of wires or delays. The long-lasting battery will allow them to focus on what’s important.

For the first time, we’ve added ambient lighting on both sides of the keyboard, with multiple light effects to choose from and RGB ambient lighting to match your daily mood.

Meletrix was born with the influence of its parent brand Wuque Studio, a professional custom keyboard studio that has brought multiple popular boards to the keyboard enthusiast community. However, Meletrix differs from its parent brand by putting more focus on bringing enthusiast-level mechanical keyboards to the general population. 

From a group of people who are custom keyboard enthusiasts themselves, and who have already put tons of effort into the design, development, and manufacturing of premium custom keyboards, we really understand how to make a good board.

The Meletrix Zoom TKL, our 1st flagship board, is a real enthusiast-level board that is accessible to everyone, especially to those who haven’t had a chance or don’t have the time to learn or build their own daily driver. We hope you will like it, and keep following our projects 🙂

Who We Are

We are passionate inventors and innovators in areas of self-empowerment and personal growth. Fascinated by the growing demand for mentorship and coaching in all areas of life, we noticed a big problem in the industry: Mentors can’t easily find their Mentees, and Mentees can’t easily find Mentors.

Fuelled by our own desire for the perfect answer to the “human potential dilemma”, our team has spent the past several years developing this solution behind closed doors… Now we’re ready to build a world-wide community with you and create a network of knowledge!

Find Your Mentor 1.0

Our solution is a revolutionary user-centered platform designed to optimally serve individuals on their journey towards personal growth. Our goal is to assist those looking for guidance in a way that BEST supports them through our proprietary matching technology and vast Mentor directory. Find Your Mentor offers many tools to support Mentors and Mentees alike, including an integrated virtual assistant and personal academy just to name a few!

Everyone, at some point, needs a guide in their life. We believe that the Mentor solution lies within everyone. Through trial and error, we have discovered how to crack the code by helping our users tap into and uncover their deepest potentials. Only by understanding who you are, will you become empowered to create!

Our capacity to grow as individuals is truly endless! Wisdom comes in many forms, languages, and cultures. Statistics show that by raising our collective connections and well-rounded intelligence, we can effectively align with our purpose and meet challenges with a more objective and positive mindset. On a global scale, this can lead to better solutions for real-world problems.

Our Mission:

To Connect 1 Billion People

Find Your Mentor envisions a community built by Mentors, drawing upon meaningful connections between Mentors and Finders alike.

Your support and contribution will help Mentors share their knowledge, wisdom, and life experiences with the world! The purpose of our crowdfunding campaign is to support our internal team focused on getting Find Your Mentor up and running for our users. We want to begin to connect with our growing community of Contributors, Supporters, Mentors, and Finders.

Perks = Memberships

Find Your Mentor welcomes everyone to become a part of our community! We offer FREE profiles for all 3 types of users: Mentors, Finders, and Locations. Paid memberships are offered to Mentors that want more perks and could use more tools that will benefit their mentorship efforts. Right now we are offering early-bird membership pricing through our perks.

Research: THE FACTS, The Future

Let’s face it: Millennials are set to dominate the workforce within the next 5-10 years. By 2025, 75% of the workforce will be Millennials! Research shows that Millennials are the most likely age group to work with a Mentor. Mentorship has become a necessity for professional success in the workplace.

A recent study reported by Forbes Magazine states that 63% of Millennials feel their leadership skills are not being fully developed, and those intending to stay with their career path for more than five years are twice as likely to have a Mentor (68%) than not (32%).

Expectations of the Market: The Digital Age of Mentorship

Our desire to help make wisdom more accessible on a global scale couldn’t have come at a better time. As the personal growth concept rises in popularity, more businesses and individuals are turning to mentorship.

Mentors can now be seen and heard on the web using expensive and complicated digital sales strategies. Quality Mentors may not be able to invest time and money into these strategies, which can create a barrier between them and ideal Mentor/Mentee relationships. There are so many limitations that can occur in the Mentor marketing process that we needed to create a solution by eliminating these obstacles altogether.

Mentors and Mentees already struggle to make time for meetings and communication, so we asked ourselves: How can we streamline this process and make it accessible for all?

The Mentor Solution

We’ve designed a platform that works as a vast directory and offers necessary tools for Mentors to manage expectations and quickly match with those that can benefit from their offerings. Relying on expensive, attention-seeking vehicles of exposure, funnels, and advertising is no longer necessary when you create a Mentor profile on Find Your Mentor.

How it Works: Matching Technology is Key

Our matching process is not solely based on common algorithms such as data collected from social profiles or online behaviors. A questionnaire and other scans make up our proprietary matching technology. We pass our user’s unique personality thumbprint through an intelligent matching system that will locate Mentors within our database. We find this process essential in creating a win-win solution that is most beneficial to the user.

We Help Mentors Get Discovered

Many Mentors that have already built out their course materials, developed a following, etc. are highly encouraged to create a FREE profile on Find Your Mentor linking to existing courses, offerings, products, blogs, etc. for easy discovery. 

Mentors that do not already have content can easily develop everything through Find Your Mentor through an upgraded membership. Our platform offers a wide range of free and paid tools for Mentor profiles, a public landing page, and private membership access, revealing content to Finder profiles with access.

We Won’t Advertise Mentors Unless They Are A Match

Most directory websites and social platforms make recommendations based on advertising, or algorithms that are subjective. Users on Find Your Mentor receive Mentor suggestions that are a near-exact suitable match. By asking users insightful questions before browsing, our sophisticated intelligent matching software removes the persuasion and provides the most ideal matches based on diverse Finder-Mentor commonalities.

  • Getting recommended to more of the RIGHT clientele
  • More exposure and better positioning of skills
  • More time to build client relationships
  • Better communication tools

What We Need: ALL the Mentors to join us!

Find Your Mentor envisions a community built by Mentors, drawing upon meaningful connections between Mentors and Finders alike.

We will be ready to launch the beta version of the platform once our goal of $40,000 and 5,000 total users is reached.

After investing several years of preparation and market research, we are confident that with the help of our community we can grow organically. For this reason, our perks offered via

this crowdfunding campaign will begin building our community and understanding needs as we roll out features. It is our responsibility to communicate with those that will benefit from our product the most, so we plan on creating a blog that will keep our members posted on all updates. Building the highest possible level of trust during our most vulnerable phase is what keeps us honest, transparent and accountable.

Negative Space: Stories of Women of Colour in Photography

In a society where women are underrepresented in many areas of professional photography – and women of colour even more so – there are many challenges we must contend with. Negative Space: Stories of Women of Colour in Photography the title for the book was inspired by the Japanese concept of Ma, a pause and space to grow and reflect.

GOAL£2,000PLEDGED£2,395
BACKERS44DAYS TO GO5
Project status dated : 15 November 2022

The project

At the beginning of 2021, I began meeting with a diversity of London-based women of colour who work in different roles across the photography industry. Since then, I have interviewed and photographed ten women working as freelance photographers, art directors, photo-agents, and agency directors about their experiences in the industry. 

In a society where women are underrepresented in many areas of professional photography – and women of colour even more so – there are many challenges we must contend with. The title for the book was inspired by the Japanese concept of Ma, a pause and space to grow and reflect. I believe there has been progress in representation in the photography industry,  but there is still much more space to grow. 

Alongside my own portrait photography of each woman, the book features fascinating written narratives about their individual journey through their career,  tips and advice for all people navigating a career in photography, and insights into their hopes for the future of the industry. 

The Book

With your support, I hope to publish Negative Space as a beautiful photo book. The images and words in this book are intended to inspire future generations of diverse women to celebrate the achievements being made towards better representation in the photography industry, whilst also providing a tool for all creatives and organisations to reflect and learn from.

  • Printed by a UK-based independent publisher on high quality 100% recycled paper
  • 9” x 10” book with soft cover
  • Designed by one of the women who features in this book, her beautiful design complements the voice of the women within the stories
  • Check out a feature on the book by Creative Lives in Progress. 

Your Support

This project has been self-led and self-funded.  Publishing photography books is a very expensive undertaking, where photographers often have to raise funds or contribute substantial amounts in order to pay for printing, design and distribution of the book. I am a self-supported photographer unable to cover all the costs associated with this, so the contributions from this Kickstarter, along with my own savings, will go towards the necessary production costs,  which will bring the people within the stories to life.

For Kickstarter campaigns to become successful they need to reach their full target, so please help spread the word by sharing the link or posting it within your social networks – please take a look at the many rewards on offer! I appreciate your support and I’d love it if you could help make this project become a reality.

The Story

 lovers in your life.

There’s a whole world of wine out there! If you find yourself sticking to the same old wines, these cards can help you discover new ones.

Look for similar descriptions of wines on the cards, or look at the graphics as a shortcut. For example if you like Sauvignon Blanc (J♠), see what you think of a Grüner Veltliner (7♠).

The cards could encourage you to try a favourite grape from a different region to your regular choices.

Or you might just like the sound of one of the wines on the cards that you’ve never even heard of before!

Have you even taken a bottle of wine to a party or as a gift and just chosen a pretty label?

The cards will arm you with the knowledge to make more thoughtful choices in those situations. You could impress your friends with something they haven’t tried before, or you could take a wine to match particular food you’re going to be having.

Once you know a few things about the grapes used in different wines you can start to recognise wine bargains. Big regions and brands are often overpriced, and by having some underlying knowledge you can break free and find much better value.

For example instead of Champagne (3♦) you can try a Cava (2♦) for a fraction of the price, particularly if it’s called for in a cocktail.

Wine lists can be intimidating, but once you start to recognise the key grapes and regions you’ll soon start to have much more fun choosing the right wine from a wine list. The cards will also give you the confidence to ask questions about wine lists and you’ll get much more out of the experience of choosing a bottle.

Winer from A to Z

What’s on the cards?

Wine Cards are the result of months of research distilled into 52 regular size playing cards – and some useful jokers. 

After condensing all this key information about wine, you’ll find it’s much easier to absorb, and my aim is to give you useful, actionable knowledge.

It was critical to me that the information on the cards was accurate and credible, so in addition to reading lots about wine (and of course drinking some) I completed the WSET Level 2 Award in Wines in London where I attained a pass with distinction.

The 52 cards each cover different wines, regions or wine grapes. There’s a brief overview, then information about the characteristics of the wine, what to look for on labels, food pairing, and other useful facts.

Some of the cards have graphics showing characteristics like sweetness, acidity and body. These can then help you choose wines or point you towards new wines to try.

If you’re new to terms like body and tannins, one of the joker cards has a key to help you understand these graphics and how to use them.

Helping you interpret wine labels is a key job of the cards and below is a great example. When buying Prosecco (9♦), look for a Valdobbiadene Prosecco and you’ll find it’s better than a regular Prosecco, as shown on the quality pyramid on the card. This one was!

Double-sided index card

The order of the cards in each suit is alphabetical. I thought about some sort of hierarchy, but whereas some grapes for example might be more ‘prestigious’ than others, ranking them would do a disservice to others. And perhaps more importantly, having them in alphabetical order makes it easier to find a particular card. This means that Champagne has ended up being the lowly 3 of diamonds! 

The hearts (red grapes) for example go from 2♥️ Barbera to A♥️ Tempranillo. 

The perfect gift for the wine-lovers in your life

The video below is me chatting about some of my favourite cards, showing examples of the kind of information that’s on them. 

The jokers

In addition to the 52 wine cards, there are four extra cards. Two have information on both sides:

  • Double-sided index card
  • Double-sided food pairing card

And two have information on one side only and a regular back, so can be used as jokers:

  • Key to terms and icons on the cards
  • Key to labelling terms on wines from different regions

The cards are also cards

Yes, the cards contain useful wine information and facts, but they’re also great playing cards! The cards are regular poker size playing cards made from world-class playing card stock. The card symbols in the corners are a regular size too, so game play isn’t compromised by the magic of wine in the centre of the cards.

Who are the cards for?

Anyone who likes wine! Maybe you’ve just started drinking wine, or have always enjoyed it but never really gone beyond recognising a few favourite types. If that’s the case, these cards will uncork a whole new level of wine appreciation. You’ll soon start to see patterns and can quickly build a solid foundation of basic wine knowledge. Impress your friends next time you’re in front of a wine menu!

Or maybe, like me, you’ve always liked wine but have often wished that you knew a bit more about it. Once I started working on this project I realised that so many of my friends felt the same way.

Wine Cards will definitely cover the basics and even take you a lot further as you get to know them. Some of that comes with no effort as you just absorb the knowledge when waiting for someone else’s turn to play their hand!

If you feel you already know a bit more about wine, or are studying for a wine qualification, then the cards could be a great aid to your learning and a fun way to share your love of wine with other people.

If you’re a professional sommelier you likely already know everything on these cards, but even so, they could be a really fun thing to have to break down barriers when talking to friends about wine.

Will they teach you everything about wine? No, of course not. In a lifetime you couldn’t know everything about wine! But I believe this is probably the best wine information you can find in such a small package.

The Story

The wait is over!

The most powerful carbon fiber electric mountain bike of it’s class!

Uphill Flow

Take your mountain biking to the next level. It’s the best of both worlds—it rallies the trail like a traditional bike on descents but rips back to the top with powered assist on climbs. Make climbs the best part of your ride!

The Experience

The Weapon X is incredibly snappy. The wheel base is designed to make cornering on the trail quick and stable. You’ll stay pinned to the dirt and have enough travel to absorb any bump or jump on the trail. In a word: FUN!

The battery and motor seamlessly integrate into a beautiful, hand laid carbon fiber frame. It’s lightweight, snappy and ready to take command of any terrain.

Where others try to sell you ‘off the shelf’ carbon fiber frames, we designed ours from scratch and put it through rigorous testing to be worthy of the FLX name.

Mid-Drive Power

The mid-drive motor configuration is the preferred set up for eMTB’s. The low center of gravity coupled with fast motor engagement results in control in the corners and power off the line. 

Why DVO?

The Weapon is supported by DVO suspension giving riders custom tunability to make their ride just right. DVO is a ‘rider propelled’ brand bringing over 80 years of collective suspension building with great customer service to the market. eMTB specific Onyx E-2 and Onyx E-1 forks are built to handle the extra weight of electric bikes and keep the rider in control no matter the conditions.

Active Braking Power

Powerful Magura 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes work in tandem with our active braking suspension designed to keep the rider in control and balanced under large braking forces in rough terrain where the suspension is active.

Speed Defies Gravity

The SDG Tellis dropper post is a proven work horse made to keep the rider in the perfect position for climbing or attacking descents. Simply press the remote lever to raise or lower the seat with ease.

Chatbots Market Analysis Projected To Hit USD 24.98 Billion By 2030

Market Overview

By 2030, the chatbots market is expected to be worth USD 24.98 billion, with a 24.2% CAGR. The Chatbots Market Research Report provides the most valuable information on market size, business strategies, and the latest innovations in the global market.

A chatbot is an artificial intelligence (AI) software that simulates text-based or text-to-speech communication to conduct online chats. It is beneficial to speak to a user in natural language across messaging services, the internet, mobile apps, and the phone. Additionally, chatbots are used in the BFSI sector to improve user experience, engage with clients in place of advisers, quicken response times, reduce workloads, and other things.

Request a sample of this research report: https://www.marketresearchfuture.com/sample_request/2981

Some of the factors driving the growth of the chatbot market include an increase in the integration of chatbots with social media, higher awareness of chatbots, and rising demand for better customer relationship management (CRM). The market’s development is, however, constrained by rising chatbot installation costs at the beginning of the process and a lack of product diversification.

Like any other industry in the world, COVID 19 has limited the demand for chatbots. Both the market’s demand and its sales rate decreased. It affected market demand and revenue growth.
