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.”
“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.”
“FT is professional. You have a scientific method to help creators. This is really a surprise to us. And this definitely give us a confidence to FT.”
“FUNDED TODAY—KING OF CROWDFUNDING”
“We decided to utilize Funded Today’s skill set to help give out campaign a boost. The team was incredibly professional to work with and did a great job for us. I felt that the transparency was great and they were open in everything they were doing.”
Stone Collection: Raised $20,677
“Thanks for the work and the effort you put in our campaign. Even though our cooperation didn’t work out as everyone hoped, we are still glad that we tried working together on this campaign. Now we are happy that we finished it and can start producing our watches—and that was our main goal. We will study your marketing report and hopefully learn our lessons for upcoming projects (be it crowdfunding or online marketing in general). Thanks for your transparent communication and the kind and personal contact here on Skype.”
mnmlst Watches: Raised $61,879
“Eventually we started working with Funded Today and my only regret is that we didn’t start working with them sooner. Not only did Funded Today help us reach our goal but they helped us grow our customer base and triple our funding. Funded Today brought more eyeballs to our website in return lead to more sales.”
“I will Kickstart again. And, when I Kickstart again, I guarantee I use Funded Today. It would be stupid not to. Because, again, I doubled and I expect to triple the money that I would have raised without them. So, if you’re on the fence, take it from some guy who doesn’t know anything but the fact that they have actually really been a huge help.”
Wood Phone Cases: Raised CA$ 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.”
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!”
Cortèz Outerwear: Raised €237,227
“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.”
“It has been great working with Jordan and Funded Today. Jordan has answered any message at any time of day which has been great and over the top. He responds to all forms of communication (Skype, Google, Email, & FB). He makes time for face calls and answers all questions to completion. I would recommend Jordan and Funded Today to anyone.”
“You guys are heroes, awesome job.”
“Funded Today did a good job for me. I’m sitting in a park right now in Shanghai, China! Now, I’m enjoying an international trip here in a beautiful park. I’ve done two (2) campaigns. The first one I did on my own and I said I’d never do another Kickstarter. It was just that consuming and really a lot of work. It dawned on me a few months later that perhaps with the right team and the right skillset, that maybe it would be worth doing more Kickstarter campaigns as we got going. Funded Today did some advertising tests and they weren’t going well enough so Zach, the CEO and CoFounder of Funded Today, along with Thomas, proposed that we revamp the campaign, redo the video, and change the page design and messaging to be broader. So, we took their recommendation and used them to do those changes for us. We paid for those services. That made all the difference! They turned what would have been a failed $20,000 campaign into about a $185,000 campaign, much different than what I could have brought to the table myself. I wholly endorse Funded Today and their ability to do some big things on the Kickstarter and IndieGoGo crowdfunding platforms.”
Force Field Cloaks: Raised $241,681
“A lot of negative press has been out there about Funded Today and how they’re a scam and all they do is take your money and run—and, when I first approached Funded Today, I had the same fears and hesitations and chose not to work with them. But I have since started my campaign and, at 10 days in, decided to partner with them. And the question I think everyone considering working with Funded Today needs to ask themselves is: ‘Do I have a good product? Do I have my product presented well?’ And, if the answer is ‘yes’ to both those questions, I believe you should partner with Funded Today. The direction I took before hiring Funded Today was hiring an expert in the field and spending my own money—and I had some good results, but not very many. But, since working with Funded Today, the results we’ve been able to create together amazed even my own expectations. It was the best decision I ever made. The worst decision I ever made in this campaign was not working with them from the onset, because I know I’d be a lot larger than I am sitting here today with 8 days left.”
“We had a successful campaign last summer and we partnered with Funded Today about halfway through the campaign. We found Funded Today to be very professional and very experienced in Kickstarter marketing. They helped us generate some very good insights into who our key audiences are. Would I consider working with them again? Yes! The communication was very good. They were flexible in finding a way for us to work together. They were able to drive traffic to our page and generate quite a few sales. Thank you Funded Today.”
Computer Vision A-Z: Raised AU$ 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.”
“You delivered what you promised and even more. Wasn’t really surprised about anything. I feel that what you told us and promised was met.”
“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.”
“Using Funded Today feels like cheating. We are so happy with the results.”
“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 end results were rather good. Thanks for the great work and support.”
“Pledges spiked after working with Funded.Today. We made more money in the few days we worked with Funded Today than we made in the 20+ days when we tried to go it alone. Their process took a few days for things to really start working but when the ads started clicking, the change was immediate and noticeable. The service was so great, we have actually already started working with them on our next Kickstarter project.”
