Crowdfunding has seen many outrageous successes over the last decade during its infamous rise in the consumer products industry. Everything from the Pebble Watch to the Coolest Cooler and even potato salad has funded successfully on Kickstarter, giving people hope that anyone can be a winner on this intensely popular platform. However, it isn't that easy. According to Fundera, the average success rate is merely 22.4% of crowdfunding campaigns across all platforms.
