We are currently raising a pre sale for our ICO and one of the reasons is to ensure that the product and concept are fully ready for ICO stage. It's also good to have early ambassadors on board with the project and it allows early stage costs to be covered such as marketing, platform development. For us it means that at least when we are launching the ICO the idea has already gained quite a bit of traction.
Hope that helps,
Angela

Yes, pre-ICO may also be used by the project in order to test the waters so to speak. In that way, they would know if their project is gaining a wide support. If not, then they would have much time to upgrade their marketing and promotion so that when the ICO comes, they are sure that they have already reached the targeted investors.

I think presale is a private sale before ICO
I agree with your opinion. because the price of a coin at presale is usually cheaper than ICO.

Presale gives you an advantage of buying the crypto at a cheaper price than their targeted price during ICO it could be up to 50 percent cheaper. This is also the same as on pre-sale of Real Estate properties, presale is always cheaper than the actual selling price.It is a marketing strategy to augment market demands.

the ico market is very hot this year, people get cheaper coins at little risk through presale, but when the market is cooling down, presale means high risk as the ico may even not succeed

I believe that Presale is like a demo/pilot version of the real ICO where a company can use it to assess its readiness for the big & real ICO. That said; for the Presale investors; there are usually lots of good features & benefits during the Presale, like: Presale token price is lower than the ICO price (meaning more profit when things stabilize & the token starts to get traded) & also the ability to get refunded if things don't go well during the Presale.

Hey folks,
i am wondering what are the differences between presale we see that often and an ICO. why do companies run a presale mostly with higher benefits compared to the following ICO? do investors have to stick to some kind of conditions afterwards? (hold at least for x month?) i dont assume that because ppl sometimes gather, group up to collect the minimum needed in a certain presale and participate. so what is so special about presale?
The price of token on Presale is lower. Also, could be some bonuses by time or by amount of ETH.. Also, a lot of startups want to raise some little amount of money to prepare for ICO + hire some more people, improve the product (like Ahoolee or Crowdholding)

ICOs which are coming up with clear cut and focused objectives are the ones making the most out of presale (reaching the max presale cap within no time) and this is the effect of offering an incentive to the investors a discounted rate at the time of presale. Of course it is a gamble for the investors but it is much better to obtain tokens at a better rate than during the ICO itself. If an ICO presale gets a lot of investors buzzing and fills the max cap very quickly, rest assured the ICO stage's hard cap will also be fulfilled soon and this is exactly why a presale before the actual ICO would mean the difference for many new coins out there.

Presale is a cheap promotional ICO. We can call it a reward for early investors. It's an advertising strategy as well.
Presales kinda piss me off why is someone getting it before I am at an even cheaper price? I feel kinda ripped off if I see an ico with a presale - an ico is not an ico if it has a presale ICO = initial coin offering is this not correct? If you have presale you have already offered coins so you are lieing calling it an ico

This is simplest way to get some useful moneys for your project. If you have fine idea you can attract serious buyers. And then you will make succesfull ICO.

If you have presale you have already offered coins so you are lieing calling it an ico That's a really good point but also you need to weigh that up with the fact that most ICO's perhaps in earlier stages of team or product development don't get taken as seriously as those that already have a full team, some platform development done, a nice shiny white paper and a really sound pre marketing campaign. And that all requires a bit of early stage cash - so I think the fact the very early stage investors risk more is why they get more benefit. But I agree with you that initial should mean initial - but it would help if there was more acceptance of early stage projects at ICO stage though - a consistency in white paper information and more transparency about what was being invested in for each offering would maybe help negate the need for a pre sale

In pre-sale you take more risks, but you gain more profit. In ICOs sometimes companies already gained their favorable cap and than all others can invest safely.

presale exists to give special privilege and bonus to big investors, that's why projects only allow some investors who want to join presale to invest big. they want to attract as money big investors as they can while ICO is offered for public, with low amount of minimum investment, even beggar can join the ICO to invest their money. so you guys who feels ripped off by the existence of presale, should try hard to gather money so you can join the upcoming presale.

We are running a pre-ICO to gather money for the main ICO. To perform well during ICO you will have to promote a lot and invest money into ads, community managers and other marketing things. So pre-ICO is for early investors who already have faith in project and are willing to support them with money. Usually they are given good discounts as a reward during the pre-ICO. For example, we give our pre-ICO investors 25% bonus (=20% discount).

Exactly what i think, it allows the startup to raise some capital also to push harder their ICO. I think it's also a great concept as it rewards the early investors with a bonus price for their faith in the project.

I think the only difference between presale and ico is the price of the coin or token. If you are going to participate to the presale then i can say that you can save a lot of money from that event because you can buy a coin that is a lot cheaper than the price in the ico.

Hi Guys, Check this topic regarding presale ICO: The second ICO our of Korea is coming soon (BOScoin was the first). DAYLI Financial Group (formerly Yello Finance Group) is preparing to launch a coin called ICON. The site was opened on the 2nd. Of all things, the Korea version of the Whitepaper attracted me the most, and after reading through, I felt the company was well prepared. ICON is an interconnecting blockchain network. ICON can connect independent blockchains without the use of additional third-party intermediaries. Various blockchains can communicate with each other through the ICON platform. By connecting siloed blockchains, ICON aims to become the largest blockchain in existence. ICON tokens are named ICX. ICX is used as an intermediary currency when transacting amongst the various blockchain networks. As an inter-chain blockchain, the ICON platform will be able to host other ICOs on the ICON platform. The ICON ICO will be the largest ICO in Korea. Overall, ICON aims to raise $44M over the span of 2 weeks. The ICO starts on October 20th, 2017 and ends on November 3rd, 2017. ICON will distribute 400,230,000 ICX which can only be exchanged with Ethereum (ETH). 1 ETH has a conversion rate of 2,500 ICX (1 ETH = 2,500 ICX). https://icon.foundation/en/

Pre-sale is a sale before the ICO implemented. In pre-sale usually give bonus to investor who invest but they are limited, this pre sale to provide interest for investors to invest into. Behind the success of the pre-sale it indicates that the project has been successful, although later there next sale is ICO.
