Alright, Tell me the Details
Timeline
Obviously this timeline is subject to change barring things I can’t control, but here’s what I’ve got so far:
November 7, 2022 - IndieGoGo Opens
January 2, 2023 - IndieGoGo Closes
(Assuming the IndieGoGo is successful—)
February 2023 - All size samples delivered. Final pass testing with all sizes.
March - October 2023 - Chest Protector Manufacturing
November - December 2023 - Quality assurance of products & assembly
January - February 2024 - Final packaging & product shipping!
Fingers crossed I can keep to this timeline. If there are any issues or timeline delays, you can be sure that they’ll get posted about here!
What’s the IndieGoGo Funding goal?
$50,000
This cost will cover:
All Material costs (plastic, fabric, velcro, etc.)
Manufacturing costs
Lawyer fees
IndieGoGo Fees
15-20% profit margin
Unfortunately since this is small batch manufacturing, the costs are higher. This is just the costs for the minimum amount of orders of each of the parts of the protector.
How much will this cost?
The retail price of the Cryptid Combat Wear chest protector will be $90.00 USD
