THE DAY YOU PLANT THE SEED ISN'T THE DAY YOU EAT THE FRUIT.
We hope you are ready for this forest of fruit trees you planted with us.
Without each of you supporting this KickStarter campaign we could not have created all the magic (scianz) we started.
We could not have imagined all the amazing things that came and continue to come that surpassed our financial objective by leaps and bounds.
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED OVER THE 4 WEEKS KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN.
- We created international awareness about a project very few people knew about 4 weeks ago.
- We have created a community that follows the movement and committed to the vision. You are a part of that community.
- We produced 4 amazing culturally relevant events in 9 days (that’s one event every 2 days on average) each with leaders in their categories.
- A "Laugh Til Yuh Belly Buss" comedy show with the King of Jamaican Comedy Oliver Samuels, Volier "Maffy" Johnson Owen Blakka Ellis
- We hosted the final event of National Caribbean American Heritage Month with Dr. Julius Garvey (Marcus Garvey's son) and the founder of Caribbean American Heritage Month, Dr. Claire A. Nelson
- A Culture Bashment Party with Legendary Dancehall/Reggae Selectors Rory Stone Love and Ricky Trooper
- A Watch Party with our own Award winning Director/Writer Oniffe White and Best Actor/Producer Sherando Ferril.
- Total reach of the events was over 150k on social media alone.
- Not including the 60+ country cable reach.
- Over 20k people watched the Comedy event which generated 10's of thousands of comments.
- All this not including the tens of thousands who saw all the social media activity, television interviews and radio spots around the world.
- We held meetings with almost every culturally prominent Jamaican and added some of them to our already accomplished advisory board.
- We were in every Jamaican media outlet multiple times.
- We had media coverage in the US Canada Jamaica and the UK
- We are expanding the community with a UK ambassador leading the UK awareness and activation campaign. (Looking for Ambassadors in Canada)
- We currently populate the first 5 pages on Google for Jamaica Heroes Modernized.
- We created a marketing model and engine that will change the way events are produced.
- We have new partnerhsips with multiple online social media powerhouses.
- We built relationships with numerous FB groups and have started to aggregate our own Caribbean PR list with direct relationships.
- I could go on but you get the gist.
THIS WAS A HUGE SUCCESS!!
We could not have done it with you.
We are forging forward with even more zeal than when we started so Thank you for the Fire.
