Kickstarter tips and advise

Hello,
My name is Sarah Mott, My Kickstarter campaign is Wear it HOW you Want WHERE you want. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/15 ... e-you-want

I developed a stethoscope holder that is constructed with springs so that the user can attach the holder anywhere either on their uniform or a tote bag. It is secure, easy to use and durable.

Why is this product needed? Because as a nurse, I know how uncomfortable and have experienced the neck pain and headaches that wearing the stethoscope around your neck can cause.

My campaign is doing pretty well, I am 54% funded and have 12 days to go. I am wondering if anyone can give me any tips on spreading the word to help reach people who might want to back my project.
What hashtags should I use etc....
I really can't afford to pay for one of those marketing companies, So that is not an option.
Thank you! Sarah

I've backed the project. I'll try thinking about ways to promote.

Can you reach out to nursing schools, health technician schools and the like? Not in my general circle, but if you know people who can post to groups there, should give you a boost. Maybe even some sort of professional discount/reward?
