Securing 60% of Your Early Revenue at Wadiz
Last Updated: 2026-06-12
Projects that generate strong early revenue on Wadiz share one thing in common: they build a fanbase before the campaign opens. The single most important driver of opening-day sales is the "Notify Me" feature — supporters who sign up for launch notifications account for over 60% of early-stage revenue. This article outlines four actionable strategies to maximize Notify Me sign-ups during the pre-launch ("Launching Soon") phase.
High-performing projects on Wadiz are driven by four core engagement signals: ‘Notify Me’, ‘Support & Share’, ‘Comments’, and ‘Follow’

Strategy 1: Launching Soon Page — Make a Strong First Impression
Most supporters decide whether to purchase before a campaign officially opens. Your Launching Soon page is your first and most important conversion opportunity.
1) Lead With a Single, Clear Purchase Reason
The primary reason supporters sign up for Notificaiton is simple: they want the product. Your Launching Soon story must communicate your product's value proposition just as compellingly as your live campaign page.
Example:G&G Factory Bathroom Dryer (5,099 Notify Me sign-ups)
Placed the strongest value statement at the very top of the story — made it impossible to miss.
2) Use "News" Posts to Build Rapport With Supporters
On Wadiz, supporters are partners — not just customers. Posting regular updates during the pre-launch phase builds trust and creates a sense of co-creation.
Example: Tamim Bra Top (5,774 Notify Me sign-ups)
Shared the maker's product development journey in Latest News posts, building enough trust to convert visitors into Notify Me sign-ups.
Strategy 2: Events — Simple, Targeted, High-Impact
Events are one of the fastest ways to accumulate Notify Me sign-ups. Two event formats work best:
1) Notify Me Event
Run a giveaway exclusively for supporters who sign up for launch notifications.
To drive funding conversion: Add a condition requiring campaign participation, not just notification sign-up.
Prize recommendation: Choose a prize that complements or bundles with your main product for maximum relevance.
Example: Renova Pokémon Toilet Paper (3,933 Notify Me sign-ups)
2) Product Tester Event
Select Notify Me sign-ups to receive your product in advance and post reviews on the community or Latest News section.
Authentic, first-person reviews from real supporters increase social proof and drive additional conversions during the live campaign.
Example: Ftei Deep Sleep Cool Pants (2,824 Notify Me sign-ups)
Strategy 3: Monitor Performance and Adjust in Real Time
Execution without measurement leads to missed opportunities. Once your Launching Soon phase begins, track performance in Maker Studio → Data & Insights.
