About a year ago, I designed a vertical hydroponic planter and made my very first prototype using a 3D printer. I was super nervous but posted it here to ask for feedback.

The response I got honestly blew me away — so many of you shared ideas and encouragement that I decided to take the leap and launch it on Kickstarter.

To be honest, I was a total newbie. I didn’t even realize you’re supposed to run ads or build a mailing list first. At first, no one was buying. 😅

Then a friend suggested I try email marketing, so I worked with two small email marketing agencies. By the 30th day of the campaign, we had 141 backers. I was beyond excited!

Now the product has been manufactured and delivered, and I just wanted to come back here to say THANK YOU. Your early feedback and support really gave me the courage to bring this project to life.

If anyone is curious about launching their first Kickstarter, happy to share what I learned along the way. 🚀
