Then again, what better way is there to reach the socially connected in-crowd than through social media-driven crowdfunding itself?

#Crowdfunding's Continued Maturity Is Empowering Entrepreneurs Like Never Before One of the core ideas in my latest book Bold is that today, for the first time in history,

These are things like crowdfunding, crowdsourcing, incentive competitions and online communitiesssentially techniques that let you leverage the three billion people who are currently online (the crowd) to scale up your business like never before.

Crowdfunding is a great example. Essentially, even though exponential technologies put the power of the gods (especially if wee talking AI or synthetic biology) into the hands of mere mortals,

And crowdfunding is a large part of that solution. For starters, there are more than 700 different crowdfunding sites online,

providing platform-level support for whatever kind of campaign you might have in mind. More importantly, the total amount raised via crowdfunding is following an exponential curverom $530 million in 2009 to $1. 5 billion in 2011 to $2. 7 billion in 2012.

This year, experts are predicting the total size of the crowdfunding market will come in somewhere between $5 billion and $15 billion.

And a great example of the power of this rising market emerged a few days ago

By the time he turned to Kickstarter, he had taken already the concept of the smart watch to a couple dozen venture capitalists in Silicon valley.

When he decided to launch a crowdfunding campaign it was a desperation movee literally had no other hope for keeping his company alive.

But what he gained from crowdfunding success was far more than $10. 3 million to build the watche also got of market validation.

And it was this very community he tapped into on his second crowdfunding campaign. With a mailing list over 100,000 names strong (made up of fans

The point here is that crowdfunding solves multiple challenges. It provides access to capital, pre-development market validation and serves a significant marketing/pr function true multi-tool for the modern era.

Moreover, the size of the crowdfunding market continues to grow. Experts are predicting that by 2025,

crowdfunding raises will top $100 billionearly double the size of today venture market. Of course, for that to happen, equity crowdfundinghich was legalized by the JOBS act back in 2012as to become a real force.
