Hi Loomio Community,

I'm Alina, the new Senior Comms Wrangler at Loomio. I'm loving getting to know the community through various discussions. I'd love your input on this one.

Some exciting news - we're going to be launching a massive crowd-funding campaign early next year! It's important for us to head out on this adventure in collaboration with the global Loomio community, so we would love hear your thoughts on how you think it could roll out.

For example, are there specific rewards you would like to see? Are there some platforms you prefer over others?

Please throw us your ideas... Go!

Thanks @brennannovak for your suggestions, but I was hoping to generate some discussion around what people might like to see for rewards on a crowdfunding campaign.

@benjaminknightloom @vivienmaidabornloo have you picked up some ideas on your travels to get the ball rolling?

#Ideas galore!

  • A free toolkit on "how to get your team in loomio and cranking fast" - everyone struggles with this!
  • Send me a LoomioLover merchandise item or like a laptop cover with a great quote about democracy on it
  • I want a heart on my name on Loomio which only crowdfunders get to "wear" on their profile online
  • 1 hour of skype consultation for FREEE...

the list goes on - super keen to hear others' ideas

-Something like @anthonycabraal said, but in loomio, next to the profile picture.
-Other idea is to being able to install loomio locally but may have little interest.
-Having a paid account with more benefits, like being able to have more people in their group/team

T-shirts could be great, but tricky with the different sizes... could just pre-print a bunch in each size and have a back up plan for any that aren't snapped up.
