Spread the word about Store Design, protecting value-based design careers, onboarding
I’m thrilled to report that Store Design now has enough preorders to cover printing costs. Thanks to everyone who has preordered thus far, and a special thanks to everyone who ordered teardowns & bundles; a few of those over the weekend pushed us over the finish line.
And as mentioned previously, the more we raise, the better the final product. If we get a hundred more preorders, we’ll be able to release Store Design with better paper stock, a nicer cover, and in higher quantities.
Those who have been around these parts for a while – like, since 2009 – know that we are no stranger to crowdfunding. We started on Kickstarter 14 years ago and have run several major campaigns to fund our work. This one, independently run, is comparatively unconventional. Yet it’s still worked.
We’re trusting you to believe in this and spread the word about us, now & always. If you’ve enjoyed our writing about store design, both here & in our paid group, we’d be grateful for you to write some nice things about us & spread the word.
Thanks again for your support, now & always, and let us know if you have any questions!
