Abstract

Through crowdfunding, a project initiator addresses the "crowd" to obtain all or part of the funds needed for the project. The focus herein is placed on one type of crowdfunding : "donations with a counterpart". Based on a study of a project for self-publishing the comic book Comme convenu, an interpretation and analysis Is made of the "hyperfinance" situation of this crowdfunding operation. Posted in October 2015 on Ulule, a French platform, this fund-raising campaign turned out to be a genuine success. Although the comic book's author had asked for $10,300, 7,962 persons contributed more than $294,000. In addition to the key factors in this success story as explained in the literature, this research sheds light on other elements : educational skills, the for-free strategy and the quality of the illustrations. The issues related to "stretch goals" (funding targets) are scrutinized.
