Campaign \u2018updates\u2019 are posts on a campaign that are continuations of its story. They’re an important part of campaign success – they create transparency between you and your supporters and provide more shareable material to help promote your project. You can update about anything, from what you’ll use the funds for to shipping delays for reward items. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part 1: What are campaign updates?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

What you write in a campaign story is only the beginning \u2013 no matter which platform you’re using or what the project is, there is always a story which continues as the campaign collects funds.\u00a0Project owners use this tool to inform supporters about the project and its progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the campaign owner posts an update, notifications are sent to all supporters who donate or subscribe to a campaign. In the email notification, there will be a link to the update. \u2018Unsubscribe\u2019 options will always be provided at the end of the email in case you change your mind about receiving them (for information on unsubscribing from other ConnectionPoint platform emails, view this article<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
