Crowdfunding has radically transformed the world of entrepreneurship, and today Jason sits down with one of its top players, CEO & Cofounder James Beshara of Tilt. Tilt's versatile, customizable software with a social-networking edge lets individuals & groups create their own campaign platforms, from students raising money among friends for a BBQ night, to a high-crime neighborhood pooling funds to hire a patrol car (result: 46% robbery reduction), to Snoop Dog promoting album merchandize, to actress Robin Wright's selling PJs to support women in the Congo. Jason and James talk pros/cons of competitors Kickstarter & Indiegogo, cautionary tales about delivering products as promised, crowdfunding's meteoric rise & evolution, why it's THE best way to launch a product today, and perhaps ad infinitum ... and watch us create a Tilt campaign to send Jason to Alaska!
