Building a page

Building your campaign page is a critical part of the process—and it's also pretty fun. Our Story Editor is designed to be user-friendly and should allow you to upload all the imagery, video, and copy you need to explain your company and offering.

Before writing, peruse some company pages on StartEngine to get a feel for what types of content you enjoy seeing.

You can drag and drop.

Then simply, click on the rectangular box and start typing.

  • Select italics
  • Choose the color for the text
  • Undo or Redo the last edit

You can easily experiment because anything you create can be deleted by rolling the cursor over the icon displayed on the right and selecting the X icon.

When you roll over you will also see some other choices:

  • Expand the text width or image to make it wider
  • Move the text box up or down the page by dragging the cross arrow icon
