📘 How to Start a Campaign on Hexbox
A complete guide for executors preparing to launch their product or service.
Hexbox campaigns are built around transparency, trust, and clear communication. Before launching, you will be asked a series of questions that help you present your project effectively, structure your story, ticket tiers, and define a responsible roadmap for supporters.
This guide explains what you need to prepare, why each section matters, and how to craft answers that increase your success.
1. Start With a Clear Project Story
This is where you explain the heart of your idea. Supporters must quickly understand what you’re building and why it matters. What's the pain point that it solves?
You’ll be asked:
✔ What's your project about?
Write a short story or mission that explains the core purpose of your product or service.
✔ What are the top 3 features or benefits?
Highlight the value your supporters will receive. Make this simple and concrete.
✔ What have you done so far to build trust?
This is where you share your track record—prototypes, demos, research, past achievements, or user feedback.
✔ Why are you launching this now?
Explain timing: the market need, your readiness, and why this is the right moment.
✔ How will you use the money you raise?
Supporters want clarity: outline your budget, milestones, and spending plan.
These narrative pieces create the foundation of your campaign profile.
2. Define What You’re Offering
Hexbox uses a ticket-based system to represent purchases or service entitlements. You must clearly describe what supporters receive when they buy a ticket.
You’ll be asked:
✔ What will supporters get?
List your reward tiers or service levels. Each one becomes a ticket type.
✔ What are the basic specs of your product/service?
Be transparent. Specifications make your offer real, tangible, and credible.
✔ What's the delivery timeline?
Supporters need to know when they can expect their product or service. This is very important. Be realistic.
✔ Tell us about your business or team.
Show who is behind the project, especially relevant expertise is important to show.
✔ How will you deliver the product/service?
Explain your fulfillment method, production plan, suppliers, and logistics.
This section ensures your campaign aligns with Hexbox’s escrow and milestone system.
3. Identify Risks & Add Extra Information
Hexbox requires honesty about risks because it protects both you and your supporters. Transparent projects build stronger communities.
You’ll be asked:
✔ What could go wrong and how will you handle it?
Explain challenges and your plan for managing them—delays, manufacturing, logistics, regulatory needs, etc.
✔ Any media coverage?
Press articles, interviews, publications—add them to enhance credibility.
✔ Any eco-friendly or sustainability efforts?
If your project is environmentally conscious, explain how.
This helps supporters evaluate your readiness and reliability.
4. Show Your Community & Support Network
Campaigns succeed when they demonstrate social proof.
You’ll be asked:
✔ Share your social media or community links.
Telegram, Discord, X, Instagram, website—anything that shows you’re real and active.
✔ List partners, influencers, or key supporters.
If people already believe in your project, say so.
✔ Who will review or audit your progress?
This is crucial for milestone approval and escrow releases. Mention mentors, industry experts, or auditors if applicable. This builds confidence and shows you’re not working in isolation.
5. Prepare Your FAQs
Strong campaigns answer common questions before supporters ask them.
You’ll be prompted to complete:
✔ How can people support you?
Explain how supporters participate beyond buying tickets—sharing, joining communities, providing feedback.
✔ Why should they trust your business?
Provide reassurance with your experience, references, past work, or proof of legitimacy.
✔ How much is shipping?
If your product requires shipping, be clear and upfront. Declare what would be the shipping costs. You will fill a section where you declare if the shipping is included in the price or not.
✔ How much is your tax?
Be clear about your tax regulations for your domestic and international customers. You'll be asked if the price includes tax.
✔ What payment methods do you accept?
Explain whether you accept crypto only, or crypto + fiat (if applicable later on your website). These FAQs reduce friction and help supporters make quick decisions.
6. Milestones & Escrow Rules
Before you submit the campaign, prepare clear, verifiable milestones tied to deliverables.
milestone name
expected delivery date
proof of completion
Milestones power the escrow system—funds are not released until a milestone is completed and verified.
7. Finalize and Submit to be Live on Mainnet
Once all sections are completed:
review your story
double-check your ticket types
ensure timelines and milestones are realistic
ask for verification from Hexbox Team
After submission, Hexbox may request edits or clarifications to ensure your campaign meets community and platform standards.
P.S: Most of your campaign details can be updated later! Just keep in mind that Fund Amount, Funding Type, and Deadline will be locked and won't be changeable once you submit.
8. Launch Your Campaign
Your campaign will be automatically visible on the website:
you can start to create a product or service tokens after campaign launch,
a donation product will be created automatically,
your page goes live,
you can start promoting and sharing your project,
A strong launch increases momentum and trust from early supporters.
