The audience skews heavily toward proven buyers, which is what makes it convert. Backers are concentrated in North America (65%) and Europe (25%), with an average pledge of $120 and a super backer rate of 72%, meaning most readers have backed multiple projects before. That spending history is exactly why a targeted feature tends to outperform untargeted advertising.

How to prepare your campaign for a newsletter feature

A newsletter feature works best when your campaign page is already polished and converting, because you only get one shot at that first impression. Before your feature goes out, make sure your hero image is sharp, your video is live, and your early-bird rewards are ready to create urgency. If you want help timing the feature and tightening your page first, our team will work with you to optimize your presentation for maximum impact.
