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.”
“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!”
“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 it was a very good experience. We saw the potential in the collaboration results from other Kickstarter campaigns and so we thought it was a good choice with Funded Today. The team was very helpful and responsive. Thanks Funded Today for your help!”

“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.”
“When we first launched on Kickstarter, I was scared. So, I brought on Funded Today. Jordan was my Client Specialist and he was able to guide me and help me out throughout the entire process. He even answered my questions at 11:00 PM at night, and weekends, you name it! I really owe my success to Funded Today and the great team behind Funded Today. Now, Ruggy is ranked 18th out of 4,700 live projects on Kickstarter! Thank you, Funded Today!”
“We (at the start of the campaign) went out and searched for the best possible marketing agency to partner with. We interviewed a few different agencies—and there’s lots of good ones out there—but we landed on Funded Today because they seemed to have a good grasp on the entire project; they can make your video, they can write your video, they can do your Kickstarter page, they can do PR and paid-media. We were pretty far into the process already, so we had our video done and we had most of our page done, so we selected to do the PR and the paid-media with them. Now, the PR has been awesome—Pascal has done a great job; he’s got us a number of different articles that have shown very good conversion. And, then, the paid-media—Stephanie has done a great job, as well. Now, what you have to understand about the paid-media is it’s a little bit slow in the beginning—they take time to optimize, they want to really find the best bang for your buck—but, once they do, they really start to roll. Stephanie’s done a great job—she kept me in check, which is good. I’d like to thank Funded Today for their hard work.”
“We wanted this product to reach much more wider audiences. Later on we heard about Funded Today. After some research we found lots of successful campaigns that Funded Today has done before and most of them are top raised Kickstarter campaigns. We decided to give them a try and they actually did an amazing job on the campaign. Thank you Funded Today you guys are awesome!”
“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.”
“I would strongly advise any one doing a KS or IGG campaign to go with FT.”
“We would work with you again, 100%.”

“I want to thank Funded Today for helping us raise a lot of money on the Kickstarter and making this product a reality.”
“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 want to thank Funded Today for helping us reach our Kickstarter goal. They were easy to work with and had a professional approach. We also understood that they were methodological in dealing with challenges that arose. Thanks to Funded Today’s services, we saw a dramatic surge in traffic and popularity for our Kickstarter campaign. Jordan David, our client manager, was also very friendly and communicative. Overall, it was a good experience.”
“Using Funded Today feels like cheating. We are so happy with the results.”
“I just wanted to give a shout-out to Funded Today and thank them for all of the success they brought to our campaign. We could have have got to that $1.3 million mark without them. And so I just wanted to let everybody know how important it is to reach out to Funded Today. These guys are experts at what they do. They know exactly how to run your campaign, run your Facebook ads, and all of your social media marketing. They find exactly what works and then they ‘dump the gas’ on to those methods that are bringing back a positive ROI (Return on Investment). And so we’ll definitely use Funded Today in the future and work with them on future projects. They’ve definitely added a lot of value to our campaign. Thanks Funded Today!”
“Funded Today did a fantastic job! Keep up the good work!”
“Overall, was a good experience—very professional service.”
“Been working with FT for a few years now over several campaigns. Supply them what they need, and they’ll deliver. Would recommend.”
“In the end there are two heavy weights that are the go to guys. They are FundedToday and Jellop. Both of these companies aren’t cheap but they do get results. . . . We found both of these companies very good at what they do. We found overall FundedToday delivered more results.”
“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.”
“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.”
“I’d like to vouch for the character of the guys at Funded Today, particularly Zach Smith, but really the entire time. They are really professional, friendly, and responsive. I had a lot of questions about crowdfunding and they answered everything. They really, genuinely are the experts at what they do. I would trust them with your ”crowdfunding life.” Back to Zach, he’s just super stand-up, he sticks to his word, not only that, he’s very encouraging and inspiring, and an honest guy.”
