Nice job, backers! We're 92% of the way there today, we can do this!
Don't forget to spread the classy word on social media, email, text, and good old-fashioned talking to people face-to-face. Of course, if you're wishing you reserved more socks and ties, you can always upgrade your pledge in a matter of seconds through the "manage my pledge" link.
We fully anticipate 100% funding and have already begun making plans with our manufacturers to create the ties and socks. We have no doubt we'll be able to get you the socks and ties by the end of April, and will keep you in the loop as we hit our goal.
Talk to you at 100%!

Wahooooo! We did it!
Thanks to all of you incredible backers, Tie Your Socks successfully blew past its $8,000 funding goal on Sunday with over a week to spare. THANK YOU to everyone, we can't wait to send you your socks and ties (and other rewards). Also, a special thanks to our future John-crocheted cardigan owners who backed $500 or more. There's going to be a whole lot of love sewn into those stitches.
We know you are anxious to get your mitts on the ties and socks and are wondering what happens from here. We'll wait until the campaign is officially over next week to provide all the details, but basically you'll get a survey when the campaign is over where you can let us know what design(s) you'd like. In the meantime we'll keep working with our manufacturers to get our products to us, and you'll get your selected reward on your doorstep before April 30.
For all of you happy dance hopefuls out there, don't worry, we haven't forgotten about you.
Don't hesitate to reach out to us with ANY questions. We love hearing from you and will get back to you with an answer ASAP.
Stay tuned for a special update next week, and thanks again!

Hello Backers!
We've had another great week and we are closing in on our goal swiftly! We appreciate your continued support to make this happen. And yes, so far John is going to have the privilege to hand crochet two cardigans for two lucky backers, who will also receive three combos from the new line of socks and ties. Act quickly for one of the two remaining "Royal" rewards!
We thought you'd like to meet the people behind the scenes that have made these awesome socks and ties come to life, so here's a little something about each one. (Pay close attention to the sense of urgency under Becca :))
Sean: CEO/Co-founder
Ever since Sean was a boy he had an affinity for dressing elegantly. His dad even called him "The GQ kid". He's not only good looking, but business savvy as well. You can expect to see him on the cover of Forbes some day for his business achievements!
John: CEO/Co-founder
John has always loved to dress bright and classy. When he goes skiing he wears a snowsuit that is so bright it makes the sun look dim. Underneath the jumpsuit, he skis in a pair of hand crocheted pants to stay warm. He's looking forward to crocheting 4 cardigans for the "royal backers" (2 backers down, 2 to go!).
Uncle Jack: Head designer
John's Unlce Jack is an inspiration! He was the original "matcher" of socks and ties and his 30+ years of design experience make sure you get unique socks and ties. His sense of style is unparalleled and he has more designs in his beautiful head waiting to be realized as we grow!
Becca: Graphic design
Becca is one of the most talented designers ever and the creator of the Tie Your Socks branding, logo, and graphic design. She is particularly adept at working with colors, providing invaluable advice to the team on our new designs.
She's pregnant with a little girl who's waiting for TYS to hit our funding goal before she comes! Let's get that baby out!!
Madie: Social Media/Video Production
Madison is a talented videographer and social media wizard. She applied her artistic talent to bring you the amazing posts you see on our feeds. Her creativity helps us keep things interesting and ahead of the curve.
That's the team! Until next time, stay classy! We will keep you updated at least weekly. Thanks for all you do to make this possible. Also, big shoutout to another awesome brand on Kickstarter:
TIMELOOP WATCHES - Making Luxury Watches Accessible
Each one one of their watches comes with a 5 year warranty and for pledges above 2 watches they offer gifts consisting of extra straps both in Italian leather or in metal, as well as luxury bracelets that will complement your attire.
THANK YOU Early Backers!

Backers,
What an incredible 48 hours we've had! THANK YOU for getting us half-way there already; the amount of support we've received has completely surpassed our expectations. If we could give all of you a hearty handshake and thank you in person we would. Maybe we can talk John into crocheting a "thank you" cardigan... :)
If you need to make any changes to your pledge, you can do so through your account and going to the projects you've backed. If you'd like to upgrade from a Happy Dance to a Modern Match, it's easy to do!
We'll be sure to keep you posted with a minimum of weekly updates throughout the rest of the campaign. You've started us off on the right foot and we have no doubt that our $8,000 goal will be achieved!
Finally, don't hesitate to message us through Kickstarter if you have ANY questions. Socks, ties, charity, dating advice, life in general... seriously, we're happy to help however we can.
Stay classy, backers, you'll hear from us again soon!
