Indiegogo InDemand: The Key to Ozlo Sleepbuds’ ECommerce Transition

Many campaigns wonder if their journey ends when their crowdfunding campaign closes. For Ozlo Sleepbuds, the answer was clear: their campaign was only the beginning. After raising $1.6 million on Kickstarter, Ozlo transitioned to Indiegogo’s InDemand, leveraging the platform’s post-campaign offering to reach more backers. By continuing their momentum and refining strategies, Ozlo raised an additional $6.7 million through Indiegogo, proving that post-campaign success is possible with the right tools and strategies.

WHY OZLO SLEEPBUDS USED INDEMAND

For Ozlo Sleepbuds, Kickstarter was the launchpad—but InDemand was the runway that helped their product soar. After their initial success, the team needed a platform to continue funding while transitioning toward eCommerce. Indiegogo’s InDemand provided the tools they needed to sustain growth, engage new backers, and perfect their marketing strategies.

“Indiegogo allowed us to do one of the most important things—de-risk the process. We were able to get 24,000 beta testers using the product through Indiegogo before we launched into eCommerce. How incredible is that?” said Bryant Garvin, Head of Marketing & Growth.

 

THE PATH TO ECOMMERCE SUCCESS
  • Lead Generation Through Landing Pages
    Ozlo’s strategy included driving traffic to a custom landing page before directing backers to their Indiegogo page. This approach allowed them to test messaging, optimize for conversion, and ensure every lead was ready to support their campaign.
  • Sustained Campaign Performance
    Indiegogo’s InDemand provided the infrastructure for Ozlo to sustain their campaign for months and set the stage for a successful eCommerce transition. Their campaign remained live and viable for over a year—an exceptional duration in crowdfunding.
  • Ecommerce With IndieShop
    As Ozlo launched their own eCommerce site, they also joined IndieShop—Indiegogo’s curated marketplace showcasing the best crowdfunded products. This move kept them connected to the vibrant crowdfunding community that fueled their growth, ensuring continued visibility and support.
