Project Update: Charging cards and shipping soon!

Hi everyone,

I am expecting to receive the stickers in the next day or so (I'm so excited!)

I have set cards to charge in 48 hours, and you should have gotten an email about that. Please make sure your card info and mailing address is up to date. After cards are charged, I will send a notice that addresses are locking soon, which is your last chance to make sure your shipping address is correct. Once they're locked, fulfillment will start!

Thanks!

Project Update: Rent relief donation, and new project announcement

Hi friends,

I wanted to update that with all your Common Loon sticker and print purchases, I have donated $140 to The Wilson Foundation, a Twin Cities rent relief fund! And even better, they are currently matching donations. Please consider donating to The Wilson Foundation or other mutual aid funds if you're able. I will continue to donate any loon proceeds from late surveys and pre-order store orders.

Also, I am gearing up for my next campaign, Native Wildflower Greeting Cards! These are greeting cards featuring my watercolor paintings of native plants from the Midwest. Please follow the teaser page to stay updated on the launch, and share with your nature-loving friends!

Thanks,

-Annie

Project Update: Stickers being printed!

Hi everyone,

The stickers are now in queue for printing with my manufacturer, I'm very excited! I should be receiving the stickers by the end of June, so they should still be shipped out to you in July.

Your orders are locked now, but if your mailing address has changed, you can still edit that in your surveys until I charge cards for shipping and post-campaign add-ons. You'll get a 48 hour notice before I charge cards, so please make sure you've provided the correct address by then.

A handful of you still have not filled out your surveys. A reminder that without your survey being filled out, I will not be able to ship you your rewards. Once fulfillment has begun, all remaining backers who have not yet filled out their surveys will have 30 days to complete and submit their surveys to receive their rewards, otherwise the pledge amount will be considered a donation to the campaign. So please get those filled out so I can get you your stickers! 

Thanks!

Project Update: Reminder: survey deadline May 30

Hi everyone,

A few important reminders!

There are still a few failed pledge payments. The 2 week window to fix failed payments is ending on May 28, so please check if it happened to be you. Check your spam filter for emails from BackerKit reminding you about the failed payment. If you miss this window, you will receive the survey on May 28 and get a chance to fix your payment there to reinstate your pledge.

Surveys are closing on May 30. Without your survey being filled out I will not be able to ship you your rewards! You can edit your order up until 6/1, which is when I'm going to be locking orders. You'll get a 48 hour email notice before your order locks. Then, I will be putting in the sticker order with my manufacturer. Currently we are still on track for delivery in July. 

Thank you!

Project Update: Smoke test, surveys this week

Hi friends,

I've just sent out the smoke test for surveys! This means about 5% of backers in each tier will get their survey to fill out today. If that goes without a hitch, the survey will be emailed to everyone else in the next day or so. Although you can go back and edit your survey, I encourage you to fill it out as soon as possible. In this survey, you will be able to upgrade your pledge or add more add-ons if you wish, as well as select which bird stickers you want and provide your shipping address. A reminder that without your survey being filled out I will not be able to ship you your rewards! After the survey deadline (May 30), I will put in the order for the stickers. Currently we are still on track for delivery in July!

Also, there were just a few failed payments, so please check if it happened to be you (BackerKit would have sent you an email). This can happen because of your bank flagging the charge as unusual. You have about two weeks to correct your payment information or follow up with their banks to make sure that the payment goes through.

I can't wait to see what stickers you choose!

Best,

-Annie
