We have had an educational and enjoyable month navigating the world of Kickstarter, but ultimately our efforts have come up short. It happens! ‘Tis better to have Kickstarted and lost, etc.
This is BY NO MEANS the end of A Drink With Dave, though; in the last month, several people have proposed some interesting ways to proceed, and now we’re going to hunker down and decide which path to take.
But before any of that, we would like to THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts. You know how when people say they’re humbled by an award nomination or whatever, and you say Oh, shut your hole? Well, we’re here to tell you that they may not all be fronting. That anyone would give us a theoretical dollar was a serious honor, so watching the donor list grow and grow- especially in the groundswell of the last couple of days- took our breath away. The amount of support we have gotten, both theoretical-financially and amplification-wise, made us all seriously emotional, and strengthened our resolve to make you guys a great product, by hook or by crook. When we started this thing out, we hoped the right people would get it, and you showed us that you did.
I should also take a moment to acknowledge the talent, devotion, creativity, organization, motivation, patience, and general 10-out-of-10-ness that is Brandon Walowitz. The guy is excellent at everything he does, and shocks me every day with his bottomless reserve of energy, even with a newborn daughter robbing him of sleep. Not that he isn’t busy enough, but TV/internet production companies of the world, take note: you cannot do any better than this guy. Are you following him? You should be, so that when he takes over the world, you can say you got in on the ground floor. I raise my glass to you, Brandon.
Back- joyfully and with the wind at our back- to the drawing board!
Seconded—Dave you’re a class act and Brandon is an absolute gem.
Here’s to ADWD’s 2nd act sooner than later!
Thanks to all the friends and family that donated and supported.
