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.”
“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.”

“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!”

“Funded Today fully managed my campaign. Funded Today helped us on our last campaign as well. On our first campaign, we raised $880,000. The result was amazing! We weren’t as big with our second company, Eques. So, we hired Funded Today. With Funded Today’s help, I felt so relaxed. There were no more sleepless nights, no more overworking hours. Funded Today is the #1 agency I would recommend for a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter or IndieGoGo.”
“We raised below $3.1 million with the help of Funded Today.”
“I really do appreciate all the help. You have all been more than wonderful and insightful to work with, and I appreciate it greatly. I wish each of you the best 2018 that you can possibly have, and thank you again for all the hard work over this testing period. If I ever do a crowdfunding for any other product again, I will certainly come to you first, and recommend anyone I know who has a crowdfunding campaign to your team.”

“I want to thank Funded Today for helping us raise a lot of money on the Kickstarter and making this product a reality.”
“Funded Today is a crowdfunding agency with a good reputation having been very successful with other campaigns. We partnered with them shortly after our campaign launched. I found their help to be very rewarding. I know at times there were up to 4-5 people at Funded Today, working live on our campaign, researching various avenues to market our product! They doubled, perhaps even more, the amount of campaign contributions received. We raised enough money with Funded Today’s help to meet our delivery dates. I’m sure that we would use Funded Today again.”
"Book of Psalms": Raised $66,494
“We’ve been working with Funded Today for a couple of days now, and it’s been super-awesome. We didn’t know what to expect. Two thousand dollars—where would that go? But they’ve totally surprised me—just the amount of attention that they’ve given to our project. The amount of communication that they’ve had has been really awesome. We’ve launched a Kickstarter before and, so, this has helped us a lot—comparing how we did the last one, Funded Today has been so much better.”
“You guys are nice. We’ve worked with other FB Ad specialists who all had horror stories to tell about you guys. But we found working with FT very professional. Our business and yours spoke the common language of being data driven.”
“For us, Funded Today’s team of experts tapped into paid audiences that would have taken us far longer to uncover, and accelerated our success in a matter of days.”
“[T]hank you for being really great! I loved working with Funded Today!! We still love (not past tense) working with Funded Today!”

“We made the prototype and got Funded Today engaged early on. Chandler, a Client Specialist at Funded Today, was extremely helpful with lots of suggestions and tips on what to improve on how to make a good Kickstarter page and create a great video. Funded Today started advertising and promoting our campaign from the very beginning and delivered a really good result 30 days later. They provided us with frequent updates of what was going on, suggested what tweaks to make on the Kickstarter page, how to improve the results, and went well beyond just pure marketing and promotion. Compared to a lot of other similar company out there, it would look that Funded Today is the best out there. They cover such a rich array of services and provide so many different bits of advice and help on Kickstarter and on getting funding. A really good sign is that Zach Smith, the CEO and CoFounder of Funded Today, is still dipping in and out, here and there, and providing fairly hands-on advice and help throughout the campaign. And that’s always a really good sign of any company where the CEO and Founder still does that. I definitely really recommend Funded Today’s crowdfunding services if you’re thinking about it.”
“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!”

“Funded Today is one of the bigger crowdfunding agencies in this space, and that’s also one of the reasons why we chose them. We thought they would be very effective in Facebook marketing—one of the primary acquisition-sources within Kickstarter. In the end, they weren’t as effective as we thought but, nevertheless, it was a good experience because they helped us a lot with press outreach and with cross-collaborations. Aside from that, the team is quite effective—they are professional and have a good knowledge of crowdfunding marketing in general, which made it a good overall pleasant experience.”
“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.”
“Funded Today is the hottest thing in the Crowdfunding space haha”
“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.”
“We reached out to Funded Today who after 5 days of marketing ended up holding the reigns of our marketing. Funded Today helped us double our pledges. Leaving us 600% funded and we raised $62,000 in total. Funded Today really knows what they are doing and I highly recommend them.”
“[Funded Today] helped us with all aspects of the campaign, from improving our lead-generation to setting up a campaign page. Communication with them throughout the campaign was very easily and excellent, as was the general setup of everything. I think really the key is: if you’ve got 100% confidence and faith in your product and campaign, then you really should consider Funded Today because they will optimize paid advertising to a level that you really would struggle to achieve by yourself. So, I would thoroughly recommend them. I wouldn’t consider another crowdfunding campaign without the help of Funded Today.”
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.”

“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 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.”
