Reviews of Funded Today
From Kickstarter & Indiegogo Creators
“3000+ backers pledged $1.37 Million to Cubiio, my first campaign. We could not have achieved it without the help from FUNDED TODAY. They are nice, energetic, aggressive, professional, hard workers. I will hire FUNDED TODAY to promote my next campaign again. It is reasonable to choose a good marketing partner if you aim to Million.”
“We’ve had a great experience working with Funded Today. Funded Today is the best crowdfunding marketing agency out there. The best… Period. Funded Today reached out to us in August 2015, when we were in the middle of our Kickstarter campaign. We were already at $4 million then and our campaign was slowing down and was at the verge of dying. Our Kickstarter campaign had gone viral initially which led us to raise $3 million in the first 3 weeks and then it got saturated and started to slow down. To cross the $4 million mark it took us to another 2 weeks. Then, we got Funded Today onboard in the 6th week and they reached out to a completely different audience and got another huge wave of traffic our way which helps us add another $4.5 million to our total in the last 3 weeks and our campaign closed at $9.19mn. Our total campaign duration was 8 weeks. Funded Today has got access to thousands of crowdfunding campaigns and they’ve built a community of early adopters out of it. They were able to get our campaign in front of the right audience who are mavens, early adopters of technology and innovative products. We couldn’t have done that using only facebook ads.”
“After I launched Tenikle, I ended up going with Funded Today. It felt like throwing $3k on black with the upfront cost, but I’m really glad I did because the payoff was worth it. You get what you pay for. When talking return on investment, $3k brought me in almost $80k (so far) minus what they take in the end. I think this model works great because they’re incentivized to do as best as possible. I’m a lone-wolf creator and don’t have a team to help me with running ads, so getting someone on board was important to me. If you know what you’re doing, then do it yourself. If your project is good, it will be easily marketed and you’ll do great with them. If it’s not in your budget and your project is iffy, work on getting it dialed before working with any outside marketer. My 2 cents. Hope it helps.”
Kodiak Weekender Duffle: Raised $252,311
“These guys are awesome!! We launched a Kickstarter campaign in March of 2017. They helped us raise over $107,000 and we ended up 2145% funded. They under promised and over delivered, and adapted to our project throughout the campaign. They gave me great suggestions on what I could do to improve the campaign and maximize pledges. I would highly recommend them for your crowdfunding project!”
“The experience of working with Funded was amazing. They kept us updated with our marketing status on a daily basis, such as the e-mail leads we collected and updated funding amount. And they really worked together as a strategic online marketing team with expertise on different apects of e-marketing. Furthermore, they have been so helpful in terms of providing additional marketing solutions for us. Yeah, in general, I would highly recommend them as your marketing team.”
Natsu Wallets: Raised AU$ 39,213
“Overall it was a very good experience. We saw the potential in the collaboration results from other Kickstarter campaigns and so we thought it was a good choice with Funded Today. The team was very helpful and responsive. Thanks Funded Today for your help!”
Drink Induction Chiller: Raised $106,868
“[A]bout halfway through my campaign with $13.5k raised, I continued my conversation with Jordan (a sales rep at Funded Today). We discussed my conversion ratios and what Funded Today could do that I couldn’t on my own. We negotiated terms and I ran the numbers. In order to break even with Funded Today at my margins, we would need the campaign to reach $90k. This was very unlikely, and to their credit, no one at Funded Today guaranteed any specific amount. I hesitantly signed the contract after a careful review, wired the upfront fees, and ads were running within a few hours. Jordan immediately assembled a team of Funded Today employees who each had different roles on marketing my campaign, and the communication was excellent and easy. It was obvious in our first 24 hours that the ads were converting well, which I somewhat expected based on the fact that I had over 200 organic backers, was converting around 3.5% of page views according to Google Analytics, and 10% of people who viewed my video backed. We ramped up fast since Funded Today came in with only 12 days left in my campaign. I was featured on their cashback newsletter, which alone raised about $6k in one day. I slightly increased my prices to account for the margins, and even so, was selling $10k+ per day. Looking at the Kicktraq data, you can see from 6/21 onwards, where we began to ramp the campaign with their platform. I was shocked at how fast the campaign grew, and in less than two weeks we raised $93k together. $44k can directly be attributed to Funded Today, and having all those backers helps drive more Kickstarter traffic to the campaign based on the discovery and search algo. Overall, I have to say I am incredibly thankful and impressed with Funded Today. You cannot match their conversions doing Facebook ads on your own (I tried), as they have the audience and techniques nailed down. They can create a look-a-like audience, which a small budget facebook page doesn’t have access to. They also have a great cashback network and email list. However, I cannot recommend them to everyone. Your campaign must be doing well on its own, it much have a big enough audience, and it must convert from ads. Funded Today gave me a huge boost, compared to the $30k I was trending towards organically. I believe they can do the same for you if you have a marketable campaign. However, if you are looking for a lifeline, throwing your money at any marketing agency is probably not going to help. Sometimes a caterpillar doesn’t become a butterfly—that’s the risk with launching a new product on a crowdfunding site.”
”Period of Comfort” Panties: Raised $109,348
“We worked with Funded Today for our campaign. We raised over $100,000 thanks to them. They are very simple and very easy to work with and they’re very professional. I hope to work with them on our next campaigns.”
“Funded Today’s Creative Services division redid my video. The first one I did just wasn’t quite there. They also redid my page design, my story, and my entire Kickstarter campaign. I was about going to do $15,000 with my own projections, but with Funded Today’s help, my campaign did $225,000, to date. Largely, this is because of the rework they did for me. I wholeheartedly recommend their services and feel that they do a superior, professional job and definitely know what they are doing with crowdfunding campaigns.”
“We launched on Kickstarter with the help of Funded Today. They have amazing marketing skills and I recommend them to anybody getting into crowdfunding.”
“We were dead in the water with no traction and then Funded Today came into the picture. They did a test for us to make sure that it was viable for them. I was a little worried about it I thought they were just taking our money but we passed the test. They ended up raising about $1,000 a day for the last 10-12 days and in the end without them we would not have been able to fund our project. We’re very happy and off to the races and Funded Today had a big part of that.”
“We raised below $3.1 million with the help of Funded Today.”
“I am absolutely thrilled with my experience. My only regret is that I didn’t start with them from day one. Their team is very professional, extremely responsive—we kind of created like our own individual Skype channel so that I could post up a question and get an immediate response. I would highly recommend them; if we ever do another campaign, I absolutely would not do it without them.”
“Using Funded Today feels like cheating. We are so happy with the results.”
Rever Vant Clipfolds: Raised $60,338
“We raised about $60,000 thanks to Funded Today’s efforts. These guys are very experienced at what they do. If you’re looking to launch a Kickstarter or IndieGoGo campaign I would definitely consider working with Funded Today to take your project to the next level. Will I consider working with Funded Today again? Oh yeah, most definitely! Thank you, Funded Today, I really appreciate it.”
“Worth every penny! Everyone is doing fantastic, I’m so happy all the way around. I love this experience!”
“FUNDED TODAY—KING OF CROWDFUNDING”
“I just wanted to take this opportunity to give a shout-out to Funded Today for all the help they provided in order to make our campaign successful. These guys definitely are experts in what they do and have a complete array of tested methods and strategies that they implement and double down on what works best for the brands to give the best ROI. Thanks guys!”
“After 40 days, our Kickstarter had $190,000 in pledges. We needed $110,000 more in less than a week to reach our goal. We hired Funded Today and they far surpassed our expectations. We blew past our goal of $300,000 in 5 days.”
“[T]hank you for being really great! I loved working with Funded Today!! We still love (not past tense) working with Funded Today!”
“Great experience. Would recommend.”
“I will Kickstart again. And, when I Kickstart again, I guarantee I use Funded Today. It would be stupid not to. Because, again, I doubled and I expect to triple the money that I would have raised without them. So, if you’re on the fence, take it from some guy who doesn’t know anything but the fact that they have actually really been a huge help.”
Thread Wallets: Raised $35,377
“It was more than a pleasure to work with Funded Today. I can tell you straight up that without Funded Today we definitely wouldn’t have been able to raise what we did.”
“We wanted this product to reach much more wider audiences. Later on we heard about Funded Today. After some research we found lots of successful campaigns that Funded Today has done before and most of them are top raised Kickstarter campaigns. We decided to give them a try and they actually did an amazing job on the campaign. Thank you Funded Today you guys are awesome!”
