@DivertingLife 
#FundingFail #1 - Expect Riches 
"My idea is going to raise $5,000,000!"
#FundingFail #2 - Put It ALL In Your Video 
| 
9 
@DivertingLife 
"Everyone loves videos and I simply cannot explain 
everything in less than 8 minutes!"
#FundingFail #3 - Keep It Secret. Keep It Safe. 
"I don't want anyone talking about my project yet, so I am 
| 
10 
@DivertingLife 
going to surprise them when it's live!"
#FundingFail #4 - Hurry Your Launch 
"I heard there might be a competitor launching soon, I have 
| 
11 
@DivertingLife 
to launch before anyone else does!"
#FundingFail #5 - You Are Not Prepared To Deliver 
"I have spoken to one manufacturer/developer. I got this! " 
| 
12 
@DivertingLife
#FundingFail #6 - Take A Break After Launch 
"I have launched my project, now it's time to sit back and 
| 
13 
@DivertingLife 
watch the money roll in!"

everything they need without having to wait.

| 
18
