Reviews of Funded Today
From Kickstarter & Indiegogo Creators
“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!”
“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.”
“I wanted to give a quick shout-out to Funded Today. They have an amazing marketing team. They did a lead-generation (e-mail) for us, and we worked with them prior to the beginning of our campaign, and that was the best decision we made. Within a couple of hours, we got funded. We had asked for $20,000 and we were—the first day, I think—over $25,000, which was amazing. Just with the lead-generation e-mails, we raised about $35,000. And, today, we’re about $250,000, and six days left to go in our campaign. So, our minds are blown and we can’t thank you guys enough.”
“My experience with Funded Today has been phenomenal. I would highly recommend it. My advice would be to figure out if your campaign can afford it—look at the margins on your products and, then, if you do have high-enough margins, and you have the capital to be able to invest in it, I would say 100% ‘go for it.’ Without Funded Today, we would not have made our target—we would for sure not have made our goal—and we’ve surpassed it and we still have 6 days left in the campaign. The communication has been my favorite part—there’s been excellent commuinication. The whole team is really working with us and letting us know what’s going on at all times. So, overall, I give Funded Today two thumbs-up and I would recommend it highly.”
“We used Funded Today for our Kickstarter campaign. They are very professional and clear about what they can and cannot do. Just be sure to read ALL the paperwork they give you so you are also clear on this. We paid the due diligence fee ($3,500) but our ads didn´t convert however we were 100% clear that this could happen so we knew it was a risk. They did however use other forms of marketing to get us $6,400 (£4,730) in pledges. They were an amazing support and source of information during our campaign especially when we encountered a bit of a crisis situation. I would use them again.”
Litho Hammocks: Raised $40,166
“With 10 days left we finally hired Funded Today and it was a really good idea. We were on track to maybe hit 50% of our goal and in the end we hit 200%. In 10 days they took our campaign from $7,000 all the way to $40,000 which was awesome. We don’t know what they do but their good at it. We definitely recommend they to people who are serious about getting their product out there. Funded Today know what they’re doing. 100% worth it.”
“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.”
“A huge thank you to Funded Today for making our Product become alive! really amazing!”
“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.”
“Funded Today is a GREAT!! crowdfunding marketing firm if you’re already converting customers. If you just launched and don’t have any backers yet, they cannot guarantee you anything. Once you have some successful backers they can use that data to target MORE people just like the ones that backed you and Scale it up… Its excellent if you have limited funds or you’re not experienced with marketing on social media. You DO NOT just post your campaign on Kickstarter or Indiegogo and just sit back, raising money. You have to grind and sell like a mad person. They help you do that”
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.”
“We contacted Funded Today and that’s when things really changed. After one week of test and Funded Today was at full capacity the results were amazing. The rest of the campaign the pledges were rocketing up every day. At the end of the campaign with the help of Funded Today the campaign ended at $460,000. If I would do it again the first thing I would be to make sure that I have Funded Today collaboration in my approach. Results were amazing and I really like working with Funded Today. Daily reports everything was really clear where we were going, what was going on. It was really easy to follow. I’ll honestly tell you I’m really really happy we did what we did that day I picked up the phone and called Funded Today.”
“Blade of Unagi”: Raised CA $0
“Funded Today was professional and very skilled at what they do. The speed of communication impressed me.”
“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.”
“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!”
“We raised below $3.1 million with the help of Funded Today.”
Cold Shoulder 2.0: Raised $53,940
“I just wanted to say that the folks at Funded Today are awesome. It was easy to work with them. They helped me improve my campaign. They helped me copy my campaign from Kickstarter to Indiegogo so we could move over to InDemand creator as soon as the Kicktarter camapign was done. And they’re very communicative and very easy to work with via Skype.”
“We would work with you again, 100%.”
VEIU Doorbell: Raised $265,421
“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.”
“Using Funded Today feels like cheating. We are so happy with the results.”
“Thanks for the help! It has been a great experience working with FT! Very professional!”
