The Crowdfunding Success Stories of Navicula in Patungan and Kickstarter

Berita, Interview, , , , ,

Remember my report on a crowdfunding project by Navicula, a band from Bali? In that report, I predicted that Navicula would succeed in collecting the funding through crowdfunding in Patungan and would need extra promotional effort for the crowdfunding in Kickstarter to meet the deadline. It turns out, both crowdfunding effort finally succeeded.

At Kickstarter, until Wednesday night when this article is written or 10 days before the deadline, Navicula managed to collect USD3.127 from the targeted USD3,000. At Patungan, which deadline was last Tuesday, Navicula was supported by 19 donors and collected IDR5,130,000 from the targeted IDR5,000,000.

Thus, Navicula will be able to realize their Borneo tour and organize a concert to raise people’s awareness of Orang Utan directly in the habitat of Orang Utan. According to Robi, Navicula’s vocalist, the tour will be held until mid September.

Initially, the idea to fund Navicula’s Borneo tour project came from Alfred Pasifico, Navicula’s publicist. Crowdfunding concept becomes the solution of the funding difficulties experienced by Navicula as a band which promotes environmental issues to do a tour to Borneo. The crowdfunding concept is prepared with close observation to Kickstarter’s provisions; among them is that a project must have certain goal such as creating an album and not a social project (charity).

Berita, , ,

Ingat tulisan saya tentang proyek crowdfunding yang dilakukan Navicula, band asal Bali kemarin? Pada tulisan tersebut saya memprediksikan bahwa Navicula akan berhasil memperoleh pendanaan yang diinginkan melalui crowdfunding di Patungan dan membutuhkan usaha promosi keras agar crowdfunding melalui Kickstarter berhasil. Dan ternyata, kedua usaha crowdfunding Navicula akhirnya berhasil.

Di Kickstarter, sampai Rabu malam saat tulisan ini ditulis, 10 hari dari batas waktu pengumpulan dana, Navicula telah berhasil mengumpulkan 3.127 dollar Amerika dari 3.000 dollar target mereka. Di Patungan, yang batas waktu pengumpulan adalah hari Selasa kemarin, dari target 5 juta Rupiah, Navicula telah didukung 19 orang donatur dengan jumlah dana terkumpul mencapai Rp 5.310.000.

Dengan demikian, Navicula akan bisa mewujudkan proyek mereka untuk melakukan tur ke Kalimantan dan mengadakan konser untuk menggungah kesadaran masyarakat tentang Orang Utan langsung di tanah tempat tinggal Orang Utan tersebut. Menurut Robi, vokalis Navicula, tur ini akan diadakan pada pertengahan hingga akhir September mendatang.

Awalnya, ide untuk mendanai proyek tur Navicula ke Kalimatan berasal dari Alfred Pasifico, publicist Navicula. Konsep crowdfunding menjadi solusi atas kesulitan dana yang dialami Navicula sebagai band pengusung tema-tema lingkungan untuk melakukan tur ke Kalimantan. Konsep crowdfunding disusun dengan memperhatikan ketentuan Kickstarter yang diantaranya menyebutkan bahwa proyek harus mempunyai tujuan tertentu, seperti membuat album dan bukan merupakan proyek sosial (charity).
