Crowdfunding/fundraising without having a social presence - possible?
I never liked Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, whatever else kids use these days, nor do I want my "profile" to be accessible to anyone by a simple Google search. That said, I never had (nor ever will have) a real account on any of those sites.
However now I've a business opportunity that requires investment AND exposure (it's not a local business), and I have - quite literally - zero social presence online.
Considering all that I said above, should I even consider the possibility of success in crowdfunding, and if so - how should I go about it? After all, it's mainly based on how many people you can get to visit and fund you in the first few days, and I doubt I could even get many people throughout a month or however long the campaign would be run. A couple of friends offered some help (their social contacts), but that's not enough, as as I understand most of their contacts are teens.
Anyway, any advice is appreciated, as I know little to nothing about this whole 'social era', nor do I want to be a part of it, to be honest.
