Hacking Kickstarter: How to Raise $100,000 in 10 Days (Includes Successful Templates, E-mails, etc.) Mike Del Ponte co-founded Soma, which raised more than $100,000 on Kickstarter using virtual assistants and free apps. I first met Mike Del Ponte two years ago when he was running marketing at BranchOut, a startup I advise. Before joining BranchOut, Mike had explored a variety of career paths, including preparing for the priesthood at Yale Divinity School and serving as a peacemaker in the West Bank. Earlier this year, Mike came to me with a new product idea called Soma. Soma is, in its simplest form, a high-end competitor to Brita water filters. It combines Apple-inspired design (e.g. sleek glass carafe) with a subscription service that delivers the world’s first compostable water filter to your door.

From form to function, from funding model to revenue model, Mike was eager to disrupt a sleepy but enormous market: water. You can replicate what he did.

Between Worlds - Documentary Film & Book by CMI Productions. A collaborative artistic endeavor combining Earth, Sea and Sky in a series of dramatic photographic artworks “Between Worlds” is a documentary film that follows the four month long collaboration between international award-winning photographer Jason Henthorne, known for his black-and -white, long-exposure landscape photography and Andres Amador, self-proclaimed ‘Earthscape Artist,' who creates works of art on beaches measuring up to 100,000 square feet large during low tides.

For the film, documentary filmmaker, Brad Kremer of Cross Media International, went on location to the rugged and scenic beaches of Northern California to capture the process of two creators of very different styles and personalities blending their art forms. Says Kremer “When I first heard about the Between Worlds project I thought it was an amazing opportunity to create something new with these two incredibly talented individuals.
