SBASP Survival Seasoning Campaign Strategy

To enhance the pre-order Kickstarter-style campaign for SBASP’s Survival Seasoning (https://shop.sbasp.com/shop/survival-seasoning), incorporating three distinct contribution options—Product Purchase, Pay It Forward, and Value In Value Out (VIVO)—can diversify your audience, boost engagement, and create a sense of community while funding the project. Below, I’ll refine the pre-order page draft to integrate these options, ensuring each appeals to different supporter motivations (e.g., product enthusiasts, altruists, and investors). I’ll also address how these options strengthen the campaign and provide practical implementation tips.

Why Three Options?

  • Product Purchase: Appeals to customers who want the tangible product (Survival Seasoning) and immediate value. This is the core of most pre-order campaigns and drives direct revenue.

  • Pay It Forward: Attracts supporters who want to contribute altruistically, fostering goodwill and expanding your reach through free codes shared with others (e.g., subscribers or new customers). This can amplify marketing via word-of-mouth.

  • Value In Value Out (VIVO): Targets entrepreneurial or community-minded backers who are willing to invest without expecting a physical product, instead sharing in potential profits. This incentivizes long-term engagement and aligns with the survivalist ethos of collective resilience.

These options cater to diverse motivations, increase participation, and create a multi-faceted campaign that feels inclusive and innovative, differentiating it from standard pre-order models.

How These Options Strengthen the Campaign

  1. Product Purchase:

  • Impact: Drives the bulk of revenue and validates demand. The discounted price ($7.99) and perks (e-book, sticker) incentivize immediate action.

  • Appeal: Targets the core audience (preppers, campers) who want a tangible product for personal use.

  • Implementation: Use Shopify’s pre-order app to manage inventory and track orders. Ensure clear shipping timelines to avoid delays.

  1. Pay It Forward:

  • Impact: Expands reach by encouraging backers to share codes, effectively turning supporters into marketers. For example, a survival YouTuber could share a code with 1,000 subscribers, driving traffic to SBASP.

  • Appeal: Attracts altruistic supporters and influencers who want to give back without needing the product themselves. The “Flavor Forward Wall” adds a feel-good incentive.

  • Implementation: Generate unique codes via a platform like Shopify or a coupon system. Track code redemptions to measure impact. Limit codes to one per backer to prevent abuse.

  1. Value In Value Out (VIVO):

  • Impact: Attracts higher-value contributions ($25+) and fosters long-term loyalty by treating backers as partners. The profit-sharing model is novel for a seasoning campaign, setting SBASP apart.

  • Appeal: Resonates with entrepreneurial survivalists who value collective success. The virtual Q&A and “Visionaries Wall” create a sense of exclusivity.

  • Implementation: Use a secure payment platform (e.g., Stripe) to collect VIVO contributions. Maintain transparent accounting and hire a third-party auditor for credibility if contributions exceed $5,000. Cap VIVO at 100–200 backers to keep payouts meaningful.

Practical Implementation Tips

  1. Website Setup:

  • Use a platform like Shopify or WooCommerce with a pre-order plugin to handle all three options.

  • Create separate checkout flows for each option, clearly labeled (e.g., “Buy Product,” “Pay It Forward,” “VIVO Contribution”).

  • Add a progress bar showing total contributions toward the 200-unit goal to create urgency.

  1. Marketing Strategy:

  • X Campaign: Post teasers like “Flavor your survival: Pick your path—get the seasoning, share it, or share the profits!” Tag survival influencers and use hashtags like #Prepping or #Bushcraft.

  • Email Blasts: Segment your SBASP mailing list to pitch each option (e.g., product for customers, Pay It Forward for influencers, VIVO for loyal fans).

  • Influencer Outreach: Send free samples to survival YouTubers (e.g., those reviewing gear on SBASP’s affiliate network) and encourage them to promote Pay It Forward codes.

  • Video Content: Create a 60-second video showing the seasoning in action, explaining the three options, and featuring a rugged founder’s story (e.g., “I got tired of bland camp food…”).

  1. Incentives and Urgency:

  • Limit the campaign to 30 days to drive action.

  • Offer a stretch goal: If 300 contributions are reached, all backers (across options) get a bonus mini-jar (1oz) with their order or code.

Highlight scarcity: “Only 100 Pay It Forward codes available” or “VIVO capped at 150 backers.”

  1. Fulfillment and Transparency:

  • Partner with a co-packer for spice production to ensure quality and scalability.

  • Use a shipping provider like USPS (per SBASP’s site) and automate tracking updates via email.

  • For VIVO, provide a clear profit-sharing timeline and share a financial summary post-campaign. Consider legal consultation to formalize the profit-split agreement.

  1. Risk Mitigation:

  • Set a clear minimum (200 contributions) to avoid underfunding production.

  • Offer full refunds if the goal isn’t met, processed within 7 days.

  • For Pay It Forward, ensure codes are single-use and trackable to prevent fraud.

  • For VIVO, cap total contributions (e.g., $10,000) to manage payout expectations.
