Please feel free to add information you find to this post - this will be an ongoing community effort for indies.

Speaking of, can you share some insight on how you achieved a successful Kickstarter campaign?

Thanks for the tips everyone. AlchemistJay, I think in my case it was surrounding myself with a great Twitter community of comic book fans, and more than that, a lot of luck. I had a few people who were familiar with a previous series I wrote who backed. I'm also very fortunate that I come from a pretty small town that heard a local was making a comic book and all pitched in to help.
I think the most important lesson I learned from the whole thing is, go into it with a lot to show. Next one I do will have a finished cover, 8 or 9 completely finished pages to share, and all of the reward tiers fully completed. (I know that sounds obvious to most people, but I was a real amateur on that first go around. lol)

That series that ArtCrumbs wrote is a big help for me since I'm solo.
