Collect the actual shipping date for Kickstarter project rewards. I will provide a spreadsheet of Kickstarter projects that lists all the rewards associated with each project and some other basic information (like the attached example of two projects - to be filled in as your application). You will search the project page for the date when each of the rewards for that project actually shipped and record that information in the spreadsheet. Will pay $200 for every batch of 250 projects (which includes collecting shipping date information for all the rewards for those projects).
Detailed step by step instructions are included below:
Finding the shipping date:
(1) Follow the URL provided for each project. This will take you to the Rewards page for each project. The list of rewards should match the set of rewards listed for that project in the spreadsheet.
(2) First, check the Updates tab for indications of when the rewards shipped. Most often, the project creator will post an update when they start shipping a reward and/or finish shipping a reward. If you find the date here, skip to step (4).
(3) If no clear indications can be found on the Updates tab, go to the Comments tab and look for comments on shipping from the project creator or for when backers first comment they have received their reward. If you find a comment that notes a reward was shipped, to find the exact date associated with the comment, you will need to (in Google Chrome) right click on the comments time indication (e.g. over 3 years ago) and click Inspect. This will pull up the HTML at the bottom of the screen with the exact date of the comment highlighted.
Recording the shipping date:
(4) There are 4 columns (marked in yellow) where you might potentially enter information. Be sure to take note of whether the project creator is indicating they have STARTED shipping a reward to some people (in which case you would record the date in the started_shipping column) or have FINISHED shipping the reward to everyone (in which case you would record the date in the finished_shipping column). Oftentimes there is a big gap between when they start shipping some rewards and finish shipping all of them. Record both shipping start and end date if available, otherwise leave cell blank.
(5) If the reward has still not been delivered, please write a 1 in the not_shipped column.
(6) If there is no mention of shipping anywhere, please write a 1 in the no_mention column. This will also include cash pledges for no reward (often there is an option to donate $1 or more for no reward).
Note: Oftentimes a project has many different rewards, but they are all actually the same product (just in different quantities or bundles) and so they are shipped at the same time. In these cases, the shipping entries would be the same.
However, pay special attention to whether Early Bird Rewards (which are often supposed to be shipped earlier than others) are actually shipped earlier (in which case they would have a different shipping entry than others of the same product).
