Happy Ghost Red Panda Pin as Add-On

Completed product

If you would also like to purchase a Happy Ghost Red Panda Pin, I have just added it to the survey add-on as well! Please make sure to edit your add-on before 3/31. 

Progress Tracking Update

Everything is now in production! Thank you so much for filling out your surveys. It really helped me figure out the quantities I needed to order early on.

Survey Reminder

There are still a few surveys that haven't been completed yet. If you haven't had a chance to fill yours out, please do so as soon as you can. While I have ordered enough to cover all rewards, I can't finalize or guarantee your reward and shipping details until the survey is submitted.

If a survey remains incomplete by the time fulfillment begins, it will be considered as opting out of receiving the reward and treated as support for the project.

Order Lock / Card Charge Date

The survey order will be locked on 3/31, which means no more changes can be made except for your mailing address. Please finalize your add-on before then :)

Estimate Timeline:
Complete Survey - By March 6
Lock Order - March 31
Charge Card - 1st week of April
Lock Address - Before fulfillment, depending on the items

Project Update: Survey Sent! 📝

Hey Everyone,

The smoke test for the survey was a success! The rest of the surveys were sent out to you this morning, and I'm excited to hear your responses. Please complete it by the end of this week or early next week if possible. I'd love to place all the orders with the manufacturer next week. So I can get the products in your hands faster. 🤗

If you can't find the survey link in your email, you can access it directly here:
https://happy-ghost-puddle-pal-plushies.backerkit.com/


Step-by-Step on How to Fill Out the Survey

Step 1 - You will first see the pledge level you purchased. On the same page, you will be asked to select your shipping location if BackerKit does not already have it saved.

Step 2 - It depends on whether your pledge level includes options. You will be asked to choose your options on that page, and you can also leave comments, feedback, or suggestions if you would like. This part is completely optional.


Step 3 - Add-on! Here is where you can pick up some extra goodies at 20% off MSRP!


Step 4 - Enter your shipping address and confirm. Shipping fee will depend on your location and whether your order includes a large 12" plush.



Survey completed. Will I be charged for the extra add-ons and shipping right away?

No, you will not. This is just to confirm the item selection so I can get a count of how much inventory to order. You can revisit your survey anytime to make changes. An email will be sent before your card is charged, so you will have time to make last-minute changes.

Estimate Timeline:
Complete Survey
- By March 6
Lock Order - By the end of March
Charge Card - Some time in April
Lock Address - Before fulfillment, depending on the items

If you run into any issues, please reach out to me at [email protected].

Project Update: Quick Update: Smoke Test for Survey Going Out!

Hi Everyone,

The survey has been approved to be sent, and I'm super excited to see your responses! I'm going to send out a smoke test first, which will be sent to 5% of you. This gives a small group the chance to fill out the survey early so I can catch and fix any issues before the remaining 95% receive it tomorrow.

Failed Payment

A quick reminder that the survey is approaching! If you have a failed payment, please contact your bank or credit card company to confirm that this is a legitimate charge and try to charge the payment again. If it's still not sorted out by then, you'll have another chance to fix it once the survey goes out.

Thank you!
Bonnie

Project Update: We've did it! Campaign ended - Thank you so much! 🥳

Hi everyone,

Thank you SO much for joining the Happy Ghost Production crew ship. We're officially set sail!

It's been a fun roller coaster getting everything rolling. Even though I've run a few crowdfunding campaigns before, this is only my second BackerKit campaign and my first time launching during an event as big as Pintopia. Now that things are settled, I'm so ready to focus on production and bringing everything to life.

Next Step: Pledge Processing

You'll start getting email notifications as your pledge is processed. If it doesn't go through, you'll have time to fix it before the surveys are sent. No worries, it happens. Occasionally, a bank will block a charge for security reasons, so you may just need to approve it on your end.

New Add-on: Happy Ghost Clicky Keycap Keychain

Thank you so much for voting in the poll! Even though it hasn’t ended yet, I've heard you loud and clear. I'll be making the Clicky Keycap Keychain available as an add-on during the survey process. In the meantime, I'll be working on the final design file so it’s ready for production.



Survey Timeline

The survey is how I'll collect your item selections, mailing address, and shipping fee. I'm expecting it to go out around 2/26 as soon as BackerKit releases the funds.

It would be greatly appreciated if you could complete it quickly once it arrives! It'll help everything move forward smoothly into production. Manufacturers are currently on standby while I confirm final quantities.

I want to buy the products, but I didn't pledge. Is there still a way to grab them? 

Yes! I can add you to the survey manually. Please tell me which pledge level you'd like and any add-ons you want to include. When you receive the survey, you’ll pay in full for your pledge, add-ons, and shipping.

Please reach out to me at [email protected] with the subject line: Add me to the Survey.
