When a funeral happens many people who have known the decedent come out then offer lots of sentiment and offers of help. It’s time to test that sentiment since this is not a funeral but a look at how those who would attend a funeral can help in there here and now.

RIP WP Plugins A to Z

Did I grab your attention? Perfect you are ready for the message.

This is a final plea to all our fans, listeners and friends out that that would like to see WP Plugins A to Z move on to the next level.

When a funeral happens many people who have known the decedent come out then offer lots of sentiment and offers of help. It’s time to test that sentiment since this is not a funeral but a look at how those who would attend a funeral can help in there here and now.

WP Plugins A to Z is not going to die but it looks like it will pull back a bit, while I really enjoy doing this show and have high hopes for the website and what could be possible for it I will have to pull back a bit on it. I have been running a Kickstarter for the past 26 days in the hopes that my friends and audience would jump forward to support the show. But it looks like I over estimated the support for the show.

This is the final push to see if a miracle can be pulled off and make this a reality. This is an outreach to all my listeners, and social media connections to see if we can make the kickstarter a success.

From my count I have approximately three thousand 3k, RL and online friends, followers and listeners to my podcast, twitter and Facebook feed.

Here is the question. How many of my RL and online friends, followers and listeners to my podcast would attend my funeral or at the minimum send flowers?

If only 20 percent of you would attend my funeral and or send flowers I would expect that would be about $50 each. So instead of coming to my funeral or sending flowers you would instead go to my Kickstarter page and pledge $50 or more we could obtain the goal of 30k and turn this podcast into the great show it can be.

If you cannot support the show with cash help please use the following links to share it with your social communities.

I have completed the filming of the video and working thought the edits now. A couple of images of my son Ian helping out on the set and our camera girl fixing the lights.

The WP Plugins A to Z Podcast and Website Network Kickstarter campaign.

It seems that I have hit a crossroads in my life and need to choose a path after 240 shows and 5 years this is something I have thought long and hard about for the WP Plugins A to Z podcast and website.

As many of our loyal fans have noticed the show has been intermittent as of late and this has been due to many reasons but mostly due to a lack of time to be able to focus on the show and the website due to my other obligations as a WordPress developer to keep food on the table. Yes the WP Plugins A to Z show is free and will always be free but it takes time to produce each episode and well time is a limited resource.

So this is why I am making an appeal to you our loyal fan base and everyone else out there to support the WP Plugins A to Z Podcast and website. Where we can bring you valuable material, tips the best plugins and more.

We will be starting off a Kickstarter for WP Plugins A to Z in mid to late December with some great rewards and look forward to your support.

This is the first installment of the campaign our new artwork for iTunes.

Update Dec 10, 2015

The time for launch of the campaign is closing in and we are looking at all the rewards that we will be offering to our supporters and if you have any suggestions please submit them using the form to the right top of post.

Update Dec 19, 2015

As we close in on launch day I am still refining the rewards and after much feedback it seem many people would like a T-shirt and well now one is going to be available when you support the show. Here is a look at what you can expect.

Your help will take this show to the next level with theme reviews, developer interviews, training videos, support forums and more.

A Kickstarter Campaign for the WP Plugins A to Z Podcast find it at https://wppluginsatoz.com/kickstarter

Started in 2011 by John Overall and joined a few months later by Marcus Couch the WP Plugins A to Z show is a podcast for the WordPress community that now has 240 episodes out and a fantastic listener base of thousands. The show is about plugins for WordPress and each episode brings new plugins which are reviewed by the hosts John Overall and Marcus Couch.

WP Plugins A to Z reviews are unbiased, fair and discuss the good and the bad about plugins as well as sharing insights on how a particular plugin can be used to enhance a website. They discuss and include ways in which the plugins can be used to save time and make you money.

After doing 240+ episodes the time has come to make the WP Plugins A to Z podcast and website a full time business and be able to put aside the need for taking clients to support their families.

The money raised will be used to allow the dedication of full time hours to the development of more quality show content and a more useful website with support forums, training videos and other useful tips.

The podcast will expand to 2 episodes per week with one episode dedicated to interviewing other members of the WordPress community with a focus on plugin developers from around the globe. Showcasing their plugins and getting more in-depth into the developers mindset about the plugin.

The updated web site will include sections for training videos, forums for sharing information, tips and tricks on how to better use plugins for saving time and earing more profit. It will have a place for plugin developers to share their plugins including a premium plugin directory and more.

The WP Plugins A to Z Podcast is freely available on iTunes, Stitcher, BluBrry and of course on our website. What a successfully funded campaign will accomplish is to make WP Plugins A to Z a better show than it ever was and bring more content to the WordPress community.
