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!”
Force Field Cloaks: Raised $241,681
“A lot of negative press has been out there about Funded Today and how they’re a scam and all they do is take your money and run—and, when I first approached Funded Today, I had the same fears and hesitations and chose not to work with them. But I have since started my campaign and, at 10 days in, decided to partner with them. And the question I think everyone considering working with Funded Today needs to ask themselves is: ‘Do I have a good product? Do I have my product presented well?’ And, if the answer is ‘yes’ to both those questions, I believe you should partner with Funded Today. The direction I took before hiring Funded Today was hiring an expert in the field and spending my own money—and I had some good results, but not very many. But, since working with Funded Today, the results we’ve been able to create together amazed even my own expectations. It was the best decision I ever made. The worst decision I ever made in this campaign was not working with them from the onset, because I know I’d be a lot larger than I am sitting here today with 8 days left.”
“Using Funded Today feels like cheating. We are so happy with the results.”
BASICS Wallet: Raised $171,315
“We were able to successfully raised $171,000 … definitely with the help of Funded Today. We could not have done it without them. The biggest thing I learned while working with Funded Today: Their marketing seems like magic sometimes! All they need is a great product and they can do all of the rest. The team at Funded Today is honest and hard-working. We had a lot of trust in them and did not have to worry about the little details. Overall, I’d highly recommend working with Funded Today. We had a great experience!”
Qi Aerista: Raised HK$ 1,343,877
“We would like to share with you our appreciation for Funded Today’s efforts in helping our Kickstarter campaign. We brought in Funded Today late in our campaign and we’re excited to see the additional funding support from Funded Today’s efforts. The additional support helped move our project forward tremendously. In the future, we would not hesitate in working with Funded Today again for a subsequent crowdfunding campaign.”
Born To Fly Baby: Raised AU $35,472
“Thank you so much for all of Funded Today’s efforts. Funded Today’s conclusions also align with our own efforts, although the click through rate that Jill achieved was higher than ours so we know Funded Today has been doing a fabulous job :-) The unexpected thing we found is that the product is wildly popular, but that it is not suited to crowdfunding. It is better placed in the retail/commercial sales world. Fortunately, we have had great success in this area and are currently in negotiations regarding signing on with Australia’s largest carseat and stroller brand, and have all but secured massive distribution agreements with Scandinavia, South Korea and the Middle East—which has a lucrative potential well beyond what we anticipated. Thank you for providing a great service, and if we have any more products more suited to the Kickstarter platform in the future, we will be sure to repeat the same process with Funded Today again.”
Roost Laptop Stands: Raised $785,724
“Funded Today came onboard after $200,000 and was part of raising an additional $500,000 to reach out final goal of $780,000. They were very communicative and they absolutely were in line with my needs as a creator. Funded Today were extremely good at what they did and they were receptive to strategy ideas I had. They did really well in all aspects. Two thumbs up from me and the Roost Stand.”
“We knew from the start that we wanted help marketing our campaign—we have a killer product and we are serious about bringing it to market professionally and successfully. We started out with a firm who seemed promising, once we learned about Funded Today it was a no-brainer to engage their services. While we didn’t feel at all scammed by the first firm, Funded Today brought an unparalleled depth and breadth of experience and resources to the table. FT’s business model is brilliantly simple: they thoroughly and methodically test a campaign to determine if it will be profitable. If it is, then they invest their own money, optimally advertising the campaign for maximum return. Their success formula is a juggernaut, where your success and their success are in complete alignment. Even though we only passed the validation stage, we are already seeing a very strong return from FT’s efforts. They’ve been highly communicative, professional and a joy to work with. While I’m not sure what the remaining two weeks will bring, I do feel confident that we bet on the right horse. Feel free to reach out to me directly if you'd like to know more.”
“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.”
Ultimate Belts: Raised $180,326
“This is the 2nd time we’ve teamed up with the folks at FUNDED TODAY to boost our Kickstarter campaign and we can say without hesitation ”The are awesome!” In both instances FT gave our projects a BIG push upward, adding thousands of backers and a lot more sales. Without their efforts we would have had only mediocre success on KS, not the over the top record-breaking success they provided. They are real pros at what they do and cover all the bases. Moving ahead, we look forward to working together again—for a 3rd time!”
The Cubes Pillow: Raised HK$1,382,863
“Funded Today is really amazing! It’s our pleasure to work with such an efficient team. And we do appreciate their effort to make our campaign a big success.”
“WOW!!! That is AMAZING! Thank you so much for going the extra mile when Funded Today really didn’t have to. We appreciate it so much!”
“Our over all experience with FT was great. They did all that they could with what they had to help make the project a success.”
Wood Phone Cases: Raised CA$ 10,849
“We approached Funded Today pretty well in advance anticipating that they would be able to reach a greater number of backers. Had a pretty good start bringing a ton of traffic to our page. Unfortunately the conversion wasn’t there it was probably due to a number of reasons. They already had systems in place and switched us over to a cross promotions type deal where we were able to keep going on and bring in backers to the campaign. Funded Today was very professional they were always able to answer any of our questions and all and all it was a pretty good experience working with them.”
“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!”
“We heard from a friend that had done a Kickstarter campaign with Funded Today that Funded Today did some pretty incredible work and, so, we got some more information. We were a little bit hesitant at first to work with them just because of the percent that they take, but we raised just over $250,000, which completely blew away our expectations. We are thrilled with the work that they did and haven’t regretted it once.”
“[T]hank you for being really great! I loved working with Funded Today!! We still love (not past tense) working with Funded Today!”
“We expected to work with professionals and we were pleased to find that to be true.”
“FT handled everything professionally.”
“The end results were rather good. Thanks for the great work and support.”
MEGA GLAM Hair Curling Wraps: Raised $41,200
“Funded Today helped fund over 2/3 of the campaign. Working with Funded Today gave me complete confidence. They knew the ropes well and gave me terrific guidance with cross collaborations and other methods that they have tried and found true to be successful with Kickstarter campaigns. Working with Funded Today was wonderful they were always prompt and quick to respond to any questions that I might have. I liked working with them because I felt they had a high level of integrity and honesty. I would recommend them hands down over and over they did a terrific job. We’re grateful for their partnership. Would I do another campaign with them? Absolutely.”
“In the end there are two heavy weights that are the go to guys. They are FundedToday and Jellop. Both of these companies aren’t cheap but they do get results. . . . We found both of these companies very good at what they do. We found overall FundedToday delivered more results.”
“Around mid-campaign when things usually slow down, we brought in FT to help maintain momentum. We could immediately tell the difference! Our trajectory increased sharply from that point, and finished up very strong at over 1000% funded! When we do our next Kickstarter campaign, we’ll definitely look at bringing on FT at the beginning. They have a proven track record, and I can say we enjoyed working with them.”
