My philosophy

You finished your film. You want to get it out there. You want to make money. You might have the best film in the world but if you don’t reach people, then all your work is for nothing. 

The good news is, social media and on-line platforms allows filmmakers to attract audiences in new ways and puts the power of distribution in your own hands and those of your fans.

But it is more than just distributing your film. You are building a community. A tribe. You are connecting people all over the world to each other.

You are creating a revolution. Think big.

Hello, I am Laurel.

For the past 10 years I have learned techniques to develop a highly engaged audiences who has been the key to the success of my film’s distribution.  I knew I was on to something. 

I went from being in debt to making a 6 figure income in one year. 

So I decided to start to share my strategies with YOU. 

After almost three decades, I have seen a dramatic shift in the film world. Today, most filmmakers rely on crowdfunding and private donations. Fundraising and distribution have become as innovative as making the films themselves and the two are intrinsically linked.  If you have used any kind of crowdfunding your stakeholders have been on the ride with you from the beginning. They have some skin in the game and you have built a substantial audience for the film. These people can be your amplifiers if you understand how to find them, keep them engaged and utilizing your organic grassroots fan base to help distribute your film.

Through the span of 8 years, a variety of creative crowdfunding campaigns, email blasts, and a ton of tenacity, we raised over $316,000 from 800 strangers all over the world. Not only did we raise the money, but equally important, we built a group of solid followers.

This ”slow drip” crowdfunding method laid the groundwork for the fan-based grassroots distribution of the film. I built a “tribe” of people who were hungry to share this film with their community, friends and family.
