[Today’s run: 3.4 miles]<\/p>\n
Our attempt at crowdfunding for the radio station project was a bit of a bust.\u00a0 We did get about 16 people to give us some money.\u00a0 Most of those were family and friends.\u00a0 And!\u00a0 I should say right here that we are very thankful for that.<\/p>\n
But there was no rush for the credit card machine by the heaving masses of internet users.\u00a0 We did get almost 4000 hits on our project page.\u00a0 Lots of people were interested enough to click over to the page, but that’s as far as it went.<\/p>\n
So!\u00a0 Since we did not raise enough money to buy the equipment we need, we will have to revamp our strategy and come at this again eventually.\u00a0 Until then there is plenty to do.\u00a0 I’ve been so wrapped up in the crowdfunding that I have not been working much on collection building or on getting the automation software to do what we want.\u00a0 Also, we need to order T-shirts for those who paid for them, and the other “perks” that people requested.<\/p>\n
We have some corporate organization stuff to be done.\u00a0 We will go ahead with our IRS 501(c)3 determination.\u00a0 I’m thinking they may ask us to put some non-family members on the board of directors.\u00a0 If they do, we will have to find some more-or-less local people who are interested.<\/p>\n
We are moving forward, not stuck just yet.\u00a0 But what we thought might be an easier road turned out not to be.<\/p>\n
