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.”
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.”
“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.”
“Before we signed up with them, I read some reviews of them. I was scared, of course, by some of the bad reviews—but, again, I was like… There will always be bad reviews of services and maybe partcularly of crowdfunding services because it’s not only about how these guys are working and how good they are—it’s also about the kind of project that they’re working with. So, what I did was that I took randomly some of the bad reviews, I researched a bit to find out what kind of project those creators had made and what kind of product they have, and I just found that most of these bad reviews were based on products that I didn’t really believe in, myself—so, maybe it wasn’t that much about how Funded Today was working, but more about the project that wasn’t super super for Kickstarter or crowdfunding, anyway. So, that gave me some comfort and, with the communication with the team, I felt relatively safe that we should go into it. We have been working with them for four days now. We have six days left, so it’s a relatively short period that we are working with them. What we have seen is that they have spent a lot of time analyzing until now—not a lot of results. But, yesterday, things started to explode, and we see the same trend today. So, for us, their method seems super-solid. They have tons of different levels that they’re working with—PR, Cashback systems, all these kind of things. And, of course, the ads. For us, it’s working—it’s super-nice. I recommend it.”
“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.”
“First off they are easily reachable so communication was good. Between them and us communication was good and were quick to reply. Seemed like nice enough guys and were really easy to talk to. When the campaign ended there were no surprises they were upfront in what the contract had in it. We were between $50k and 60k when we originally signed with them and we had a few weeks left in our campaign. We ended with just under $100k and so they definitely helped us get up there. I really liked with them is they were really easy to track. They made it really easy to track and see where all the different sources of money were coming from and we really liked that.”
CONDUIT Sports: Raised $106,213
“I want to thank Funded Today for helping us raise a lot of money on the Kickstarter and making this product a reality.”
“Although your team is incredible on presenting the product, your concern on the small details, that most others might miss is remarkable!”
“Funded Today was extremely on it and I appreciate the integrity for how Funded Today handled all aspects. This was my first campaign I’ve ever done and there are a lot of scammers out there trying to get a piece and Funded Today is legit. I hope we can work together in the future on a larger scale product launch!”
“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.”
My Lofty Pillow: Raised $97,429
“Funded Today has been on our project for less than a week but they literally made it rain contributions right out of the gate! Their professionalism definitely stands out in a sea of sharks, where inexperienced marketers seek to take advantage of unsuspecting entrepreneurs. With still 19 days left to go in our campaign, our company now has the confidence that our campaign will be a tremendous success, and we can focus on delivering the best travel pillow this world has ever seen. In retrospect, I should have let Funded Today take the reigns from Day 1.”
“Your business went above and beyond what I expected, extremely professional!”
“We were so excited when Funded Today agreed to come on board as our marketing partner. They are experts at online marketing and were constantly testing new demographics for us. Funded Today not only helps us reach out minimum goal they got us to $70,000 in pledges in less than two weeks. Our only regret is not bringing them on board sooner. We highly recommend Funded Today.”
“[Funded Today] helped us make a really compelling video that I think contibuted to the success of our project. And, then, … they hooked us up with a web designer who was really instrumental in creating a great Kickstarter page. We were really thrilled with both of those. And we found everyone that interacted with at Funded Today to be very responsive and also very professional. As for the campaign itself, we worked directly with a marketing specialist who signed our product and he was very communicative—kept us informed on what was happening with our different ad strategies, what was working, was wasn’t working, what adjustments we needed to make. So, we were very happy with the communication he gave us and the overall success of getting backers to support our project. We reached over twice our funding goal and had over 300 backers, which (for our small project) we were really thilled with.”
Computer Vision A-Z: Raised AU$ 87,294
“To date, we’ve run 3 successful Kickstarter campaigns, raising a total of approximately 3,000 U.S. dollars. And, if you look at our campaigns, (they are Deep Learning A-Z, Artificial Intelligence A-Z, and Computer Vision A-Z), you will see that initially there’s a huge spike in backers and, then, it quickly dropped off after our existing audience already backed our project. But, then, what you’ll notice is that they slowly-but-surely start growing, growing, growing, growing, in terms of the number of backers, and that is the work of Funded Today. Without Funded Today’s guidance and support, none of our success would have been possible, and we wouldn’t have reached nowhere near as many people around the world, and not as many people would have learned about our projects and our products. So, I would like to extend a huge thank-you to Funded Today; working with them has been extremely amazing, extremely helpful, and very very easy.”
“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.”
“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.”
“We couldn’t have raised the amount of funds we did without Funded Today. We had tried other Kickstarter boosters and Funded Today had the best results that actually had a positive ROI.”
“Working with Funded Today was an amazing experience. Honest, Hardworking, Professionals is the best way I can think to describe this group. They know the crowdfunding space and are the best at what they do. When we hit ‘Launch’ on our campaign they took over all things marketing and we were able to focus on the manufacturing of our product and responding to our backers questions. It made our campaign an enjoyable and ‘mostly’ stress free experience. We highly recommend working with them.”
“Thanks for the help! It has been a great experience working with FT! Very professional!”
“Been working with FT for a few years now over several campaigns. Supply them what they need, and they’ll deliver. Would recommend.”
“You guys are doing an absolutely phenomenal job. We are totally floored that we have almost broken the 6 figure mark! Friday was PHENOMENAL. Congrats!”
PRVKE Backpacks: Raised $113,697
“We hired Funded Today when we had about two weeks left in the campaign and we just hit our goal of $60,000. With Funded Today’s help we reached $113,000. So more than what we would have been able to do on our own.”
“I got the team from Funded Today involved about 5 days before my campaign ended. The first thing to say is: I REALLY wish I’d got them involved very much sooner! I think the ONLY question you need to ask yourself in getting involved with these guys is: Is my project good enough for them? I have NEVER, EVER had a more effective business relationship that worked sooo smoothly, sooo quickly, and so effectively, it really was quite amazing! We raised DOUBLE the amount we expected to raise. We began to plateau so we hired Funded Today and now within the first 2-3 days of working together and cross talk, I found Funded Today extremely hands-on, very communicative, very honest, and very straightforward. We formed a Skype group quite quickly and that was really useful for me so I was kind of living it along with them. And once they got going, WOW did they get going. Our curve of pledges just took off! It was absolutely outstanding. I’ve never seen anything like it. It was almost that sort of question: ‘Wow, what’s the magic here!?’ But, it’s not magic. It’s just sheer skill. They know what they are doing. I would have no hesitation, whatsoever, in recommending Funded Today to any Kickstarter or IndieGoGo campaign. It’s a no brainer. Get them in as early as you possibly can. And have no qualms, whatever, about the percentage they charge because it’s absolutely worth it. I am a hard-nosed Scottish businessman and believe you me, I don’t part with money easily. But these guys are completely worth it. I have NEVER seen anything like it. I’m going to use them again as quickly as I can as I have other campaigns in my pipeline, and I’m delighted to recommend them, wholeheartedly, to anyone out there!”
