From sketches on a napkin to a fully funded Kickstarter campaign that raised over $80,000 in 30 days, including roughly $20,000 on launch day alone. The product, created, designed and eventually manufactured from scratch became the Drop Pillow, which Whit describes as "the weighted blanket for your brain."
That spark eventually became Blisstil, a hardware company focused entirely on products that block out noise in a comfortable way while you sleep. And their latest product, the Serenade, just pre-sold over $1 million on Kickstarter.

A few months back, Landon McCoy watched his second Kickstarter campaign cross the finish line at $320,893. That's more than double what his first successful campaign raised back in 2022.
The idea grew into the Dialed Camp Kitchen. A modular system that puts your entire camp kitchen in one box. No more forgotten utensils, no more digging through bags. Just grab the case and go.

When Andrew Mueller got laid off from AWS during the 2022 tech layoffs, he didn't panic. Instead, he went to his dad's tool shop in Missouri and built a solution to a problem that had been driving him crazy: his dachshund Willie wouldn't stop climbing all over him during Zoom meetings. That prototype became SeatMate. The viral pet furniture brand that's generated over a billion organic views and raised nearly $500,000 on their first Kickstarter campaign.
Emily gave herself a year to build Pink Hawk Games into a real business, or go back to corporate life. Her first product? A strategy board game called Pirates of the High Teas about whimsical pirate crews competing in a tea party.
FLIPP hit $100K in three hours and was headed for $135K...until shocking manufacturing quotes arrived days before the campaign closed.
