In our fifth episode of Crowdfund with Cat, Brian Meece, the co-founder of crowdfunding platform RocketHub, walks us through the foundational principles of running a successful crowdfunding campaign.

RocketHub was acquired by BIZ Experiencesship resource center EFactor a year ago. Since then, Meece has left and is now pursuing independent projects.
