Reviews of Funded Today
From Kickstarter & Indiegogo Creators
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.”
“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.”
“Overall, working with Funded Today was a really really comforting experience. And they did so much for us that it really freed us up to focus on other parts of our project. We were able to ‘get the ball rolling’ on a few other things a little bit sooner than we thought we would because we thought that, for the entire 30 days of this Kickstarter, we would be focused on just this—and, so, they helped us out so much in that way. And, so, I’d definitely recommend Funded Today.”
“I have just launched the Saxmonica on kickstarter with a certain amount of apprehension prior to the start. Early on in this project I spent a lot of time reading up on crowd funding and the services offered to assist with getting pledges. I looked at a lot of bad reviews but there was a consistent thread that indicated Funded Today were several steps above the others. The review that finally did it was the one that said Funded Today was the heavy weight of the industry. That sealed it for me so once I contacted them they responded on time every time with a full professional attitude and as a result the opening week of my campaign had completely blown away my initial goals. As a lone dreamer inventor with a very limited social network I realised that I did not have the means to really push this on kickstarter so I made the decision to get the professionals in. Marketing is a skill that requires dedication and commitment and I felt I was a much better inventor than marketer. Absolutely critical to me is developing a procedure that dosnt waste my time and likewise I don’t waste other people’s time. So I am always looking for people that respond on time, don’t exaggerate claims and lay down a smooth path to follow. Funded Today has in my mind excelled in all the areas that are critical to me. I have several further products and would have no hesitation to engage them again for further crowd funding projects.”
“Thanks Funded Today. You did a great job and absolutely exceeded my expectations. I am sure we will be working with Funded Today in the future. We have about six projects were working on right now but various stages our intent is to always use Funded Today for all of our projects. We are just trying to set the calendar to figure out which we should do first. I should know in the next week I would be glad to share that calendar with Funded Today once we’re there.”
“Thanks for the help! It has been a great experience working with FT! Very professional!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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’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.”
“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.”
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.”
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.”
“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.”
Easy Life Belt MAGNETIC: Raised $92,395

Unfortunately IGG isn’t going like we wished but we are happy that we together do so great job on Kickstarter!! :D What we appreciate the most is that Funded Today stayed in so close touch through all campaign. They answered on all our questions and treated us like part of their team. And that is wonderful feeling you know! ;) Thank you for everyday updates Jill* and thank you Funded Today for such personal touch and for doing so good and faithfully. We are proud and glad on our decision to choose Funded Today’s services. Sorry guys that we didn’t yet fill our satisfaction survey. We’ll take time and We promise we’ll complete it today or at latest tomorrow! :) And we’d love to work with Funded Today again on our new campaign when we’ll be ready for KIckstarter again :) Thank you from the heart!!! FUNDED TODAY IS AMAZING!”
“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.”
“[T]hank you for being really great! I loved working with Funded Today!! We still love (not past tense) working with Funded Today!”
“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.”
”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.”
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.”
“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.”
“I love you guys. Your enthusiasm makes my day. Thanks for the positivity—I couldn’t have been more grateful I chose you.”
Garlic Shakers: Raised $50,843
“Funded Today did a really great job at helping us put together a really good paid advertising campaign and lots of other cross promotions with other campaigns. Thanks a lot Funded Today we appreciate you working with us.”
Breton Backpacks for Professionals: Raised $74,278
“Our first Kickstarter campaign and we hired Funded Today for our marketing and they were phenomenal. They helped us raise $242,000 and there was no way we could have raised that amount of money without their help. We started working with them about a month and a half before we launched our campaign and helped us know that we should push our campaign back and develop more media and develop our campaign more so that they’d be more successful. Just seeing everything they can do and the people constantly working on our campaign and the concern with how it was doing was incredible. I don’t think we could have done any better and couldn’t have had any better managing team then Funded Today. If you’re going to run a Kickstarter campaign use the best, use Funded Today and don’t waste your time.”
