Reviews of Funded Today
From Kickstarter & Indiegogo Creators
“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.”
“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.”
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!”
“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.”
Litho Hammocks: Raised $40,166
“With 10 days left we finally hired Funded Today and it was a really good idea. We were on track to maybe hit 50% of our goal and in the end we hit 200%. In 10 days they took our campaign from $7,000 all the way to $40,000 which was awesome. We don’t know what they do but their good at it. We definitely recommend they to people who are serious about getting their product out there. Funded Today know what they’re doing. 100% worth it.”
The Hydration Shirt: Raised $23,026
“We know Funded Today did their best and they were a pleasure to work with. Extremely diligent and professional. I wish all of the consultants we engaged were as forthcoming!”
“We ran a successful Kickstarter campaign and we had initially done all of our marketing in house. We had doubled our initiative objective. When our own returns started to taper off, we engaged Funded Today and they significantly increased our funding, with a nice trajectory, that culminated in about 1,000% of our goal! It’s clear that Zach and Thomas and Funded Today know the best marketing for crowdfunding campaigns.”
“Funded Today joined us about a fortnight before the project ended. In general, we were positively surprised about the professionalism, and the communication went fast and fluently. They also kept us perfectly aware about the next steps, and all the costs involved were communicated transparently. The team was always at our side—it was always easy to reach if we had any questions.”
“The experience with the Funded Today Team has been a dream. The team members have been responsive, knowledgeable, and have been a pleasure to work with.”
“Overall the FT helped the campaign above my expectation.”
Natsu Wallets: Raised AU$ 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!”
“We are extremely pleased with the responsiveness and professional services Funded Today has been providing as you walk us down new pathways that are quite unfamiliar to us.”
“This is our second time working with Funded Today and we must say that, in both projects that we’ve worked together, it’s been great! The team is really knowledgeable and full of ideas, from keeping us up-to-date on a day-to-day basis on their trial/testing stages to reminding us to get updates ready weekly to engage with our backers. We’ve seen firsthand their scaling ads with great results—the digital marketing team focuses on audiences that matter, that actually can return a result—so, we were really impressed with that. In some instances, that doubled our average pledges in the course of 14 days, almost doubling our total pledged amount. We’ll definitely partner up with them again.”
“Funded Today generated $115,111 in pledges for our Kickstarter project. We also used about 3 other companies who said they’d generate pledges for us, but we didn’t see any results from them. Funded Today actually generated pledges. We could see & track the pledges coming in on our Kickstarter dashboard. We’re very happy with the results!”
Cold Shoulder 2.0: Raised $53,940
“I just wanted to say that the folks at Funded Today are awesome. It was easy to work with them. They helped me improve my campaign. They helped me copy my campaign from Kickstarter to Indiegogo so we could move over to InDemand creator as soon as the Kicktarter camapign was done. And they’re very communicative and very easy to work with via Skype.”
The Honest Stand: Raised $29,323
“We appreciate how responsive everyone at Funded Today was and how they were able and willing to put in a big push for us as we came on board with little time left in our campaign. We felt heard and understood, and that our questions were answered thoroughly and in a super timely manner. The clear role distinctions between client specialist, liaison, head advertising director etc. seemed very effective and efficient. Again, even though it didn’t work out this time around, I would have no hesitation in recommending Funded Today services to others considering them.”
“There are only a handful of really significant digital marketing organizations that can help you with crowdfunding. Jordan, of Funded Today, reached out to me quite early on in our campaign. Our campaign was quite small at the time, having only raised $50,000. And, I wasn’t expecting Funded Today to reach out to me, I was expecting it to be the other way around. There’s a lot of great things I could say about Jordan. He’s organized, he’s a great team leader, he’s empathetic, and he’s a very thoughtful person. After the terrorist attack that happened in London, within an hour, he checked to see if I was okay and if my family was well. This was a very endearing touch. The results we had with Funded Today have been really amazing. Before Funded Today, we were going to do $115,000 GBP. I would highly recommend Funded Today to other crowdfunders. I think they are the best in the class. Their work can be enormously impactful. It’s important to not simply rely on Funded Today though. You have to step up to the plate as a project creator and work at their pace… and Funded Today’s pace can be quite quick.”
“Our product maik wall frames is about to launch on Kickstarter March 26th 2018. We are working with Funded Today to help with the PR of our kickstarter campaign and they are just fantastic. Because this is our first campaign we have had so many questions that needed answering and Funded Today has been there for us every time we needed help. I’m not sure how we could have been ready for the launch without them. Our client specialist Jordan David has the experience needed to guide us through the set up process and have saved us so much time and energy in explaining what we need to do at each stage. When I read about what advice I could give other Kickstarter creators I felt I should give my experience because there may well be PR companies that offer much more than they actually are able to deliver. Check out what the PR company have actually done for other campaigns and the proof is in the pudding. I chose Funded Today because they have raised over $175,000,00 for creators around the world, I doubt a dodgy company could achieve that and keep doing it day in day out. They have helped with email generation in the pre-launch and have been brilliant at communicating exactly what they will do for us from our launch date. So choose carefully when looking around but we are very happy with our choice. The maik wall frames team.”
“Your business went above and beyond what I expected, extremely professional!”
“FUNDED TODAY—KING OF CROWDFUNDING”
“Funded Today was very professional and they have helped generate quite a lot of sales from the Cashback Network. Thank you Funded Today and keep up your awesomeness.”
”The Hughes” Sunglasses: Raised $214,345
“Really cool experience working with Funded Today. They were really responsive and on time. The whole campaign experience was really good and something we will definitely be doing again.”
“We worked with Funded Today and started a campaign on Kickstarter. We raised almost $250,000 and over 1,000 backers all over the world. We want to thank Funded Today.”
“We launch our first project and have little experience in crowdfunding. We tried different marketing methods but results are underwhelming. Funded Today contacted us and we decided to give them a try. Jordan, our contact person, maintain great contact. Their whole team is hard working, our questions and suggestions were answered even when late in the night. As for results, the project is doing much better than on our own. Plus we were now able to to focus on product development.”
Magna Carta Playing Cards: Raised $82,271
“I brought Funded Today on because their case studies are just phenomenal. I wanted their expertise on my campaign. I really liked their professionalism. Even though they have a certain business model, how to market and grow a campaign, they had never worked with a playing card campaign before, and they were STILL able to make it possible, despite not knowing certain variables of how prospective customers or backers would react! Without Funded Today, we probably would have stalled. With Funded Today, we were able to have very steady growth, something that I had never seen before with Kickstarter (i.e. most campaigns stall out or plateau in Funding). Exponential growth would have been better! haha, but, I’ll take steady growth any day as well. They were really easy to reach on Skype, all the time. They had a great group chat set-up for me on Skype. After a week of testing, you could sort of feel the effort levels drop a little bit because my campaign did not make them as much profit, perhaps, as others of their really successful campaigns. Overall, I would fully recommend anyone that is doing a design product or technology product to go with Funded Today AS SOON AS POSSIBLE because they have those categories down and they will not disappoint!”
“[T]hank you for being really great! I loved working with Funded Today!! We still love (not past tense) working with Funded Today!”
