Start learning how to run your own successful crowdfunding campaign today!
In 2012, I started my first crowdfunding campaign and raised €11,800 on Indiegogo. Just 6 months after that, I did €208,000 with my second campaign for the same project. You can imagine the joy and excitement my team and I felt. Shortly after that, I started my own crowdfunding consulting business in Germany, where until now, I've been part in over 200 campaigns raising over 1.5 million Euros on a national and international platform like Kickstarter & Indiegogo.

What other students are saying
Ernst is very thorough when it comes to explaining and the resources makes the whole process less overwhelming. This whole course is filled with extremely helpful information. 100% worth the money. I am going in more confident into crowdfunding. I know this is specifically for crowdfunding but this is a great way to build your online network as well. I have about 50% of the course left but I am going to rewatch it as I go step by step.

My vision in life is to make the world a better and more colorful place and help as many people in life as possible.
This is why I became a high school teacher, wrote a book about how to reach your most important goals, work as an entrepreneur and coach and became a video instructor in 2013.
I love to learn new things and in my spare time, I go surfing or camping in the wild.
