Have you checked out ideacious<\/a>? It’s similar to Kickstarter<\/a> in that creators post projects that need backing for manufacturing, and buyers order products that are currently available or ‘pre-order’ a product before it’s made. However, if a buyer pre-orders an item, that’s an opportunity to invest and possibly make some money once it goes into production. Read their how ideacious works<\/a> page for a better explanation. Here are three things that caught my eye:

\n“A minimal, single-serve shelf, Foreword keeps your favourite title within reach. Hang just one or in multiples.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
