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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“After 40 days, our Kickstarter had $190,000 in pledges. We needed $110,000 more in less than a week to reach our goal. We hired Funded Today and they far surpassed our expectations. We blew past our goal of $300,000 in 5 days.”
“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!”
“I just wanted to take this opportunity to give a shout-out to Funded Today for all the help they provided in order to make our campaign successful. These guys definitely are experts in what they do and have a complete array of tested methods and strategies that they implement and double down on what works best for the brands to give the best ROI. Thanks guys!”
“We did a lot of research in who we were going to hire in marketing and public relations. We saw that Funded Today had an amazing track record of 6 figure and 7 figure campaigns. I hired them two weeks before we launched. They helped consult with us on designing and creating an amazing looking page. They gave us all of their tips and suggestions to make our page very good. Within the first 2 days, we were in the Top 20 of most popular/trending campaigns. And now we’re the #3 most popular/trending campaign! In just the first 7 days, we had already raised $168,000 and we’re tracking to over $500,000! Only 0.7% of campaigns on Kickstarter get to this point. I could not have done this without Funded Today. There is a HUGE team behind us at Funded Today. I will hire them in the future for my next 3 campaigns. I can 100% recommend Funded Today as amazing marketing partners! I give two thumbs up to Funded Today!”
“You guys are heroes, awesome job.”

“Thank you and the team for the fantastic work throughout the campaigns … It’s been a fantastic one month for us working with FT team too. Definitely will recommend and continue to work with FT in the future”
“Everything went great. Wish we would have hired you sooner.”
MEGA GLAM Hair Curling Wraps: Raised $41,200
“Funded Today helped fund over 2/3 of the campaign. Working with Funded Today gave me complete confidence. They knew the ropes well and gave me terrific guidance with cross collaborations and other methods that they have tried and found true to be successful with Kickstarter campaigns. Working with Funded Today was wonderful they were always prompt and quick to respond to any questions that I might have. I liked working with them because I felt they had a high level of integrity and honesty. I would recommend them hands down over and over they did a terrific job. We’re grateful for their partnership. Would I do another campaign with them? Absolutely.”

“Really cool experience working with Funded Today. They were really responsive and on time. The whole campaign experience was really good and something we will definitely be doing again.”
“The Funded Today team have been awesome to work with on this! Thanks a ton to Funded Today for all their hard work on this! We are excited to push as hard on this final stretch as possible!”
“We have partnered with Funded Today to help us with the campaign on Kickstarter. They have done everything from page-design, even lead-generation, to full marketing service of all the campaign, and we are very pleased with the work that Funded Today has done on all the campaign. So, we can warmly recommend anybody else who has a Kickstarter project or are planning a Kickstarter project to contact Funded Today to get professional help.”
“Funded Today generated $115,111 in pledges for our Kickstarter project. We also used about 3 other companies who said they’d generate pledges for us, but we didn’t see any results from them. Funded Today actually generated pledges. We could see & track the pledges coming in on our Kickstarter dashboard. We’re very happy with the results!”
“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.”
“We were dead in the water with no traction and then Funded Today came into the picture. They did a test for us to make sure that it was viable for them. I was a little worried about it I thought they were just taking our money but we passed the test. They ended up raising about $1,000 a day for the last 10-12 days and in the end without them we would not have been able to fund our project. We’re very happy and off to the races and Funded Today had a big part of that.”
“Been working with FT for a few years now over several campaigns. Supply them what they need, and they’ll deliver. Would recommend.”
“I reached out to Funded Today for help with my campaign and Jordan David has been awesome in redesigning my campaign. He provided great insights into how to improve my Kickstarter campaign page for better conversions. Very friendly and helpful and the changes are making a great difference. This was all before hiring FT for their services! I highly recommend getting in touch with FT if you are struggling with getting pledges on your campaign.”
“Thanks for the help! It has been a great experience working with FT! Very professional!”
“We had a pleasant experience with Funded Today. The benefits of working with them were amazing, and we are very glad to have taken this decision. First of all, they were very good and quick in reaching the right audience for Percko, which was crucial for the successful of the marketing campaign. The first impression of the percentage they take it’s probably not the best, but after all it’s worth due to the incredible amount of new backers they bring you. Our page had visitors all the time from locations we could not have reached alone. Funded Today was able to raise incredible 50.000 euros for us in 18 days! Also, when making the agreements Curtis was very flexible and attentious with us, simplifying things and turning into a deal where both parties would benefit. Funded Today have a very good experience with crowdfunding campaigns and a large portfolio of very successful campaigns.”
“With the help of Funded Today, we raised over $1,000,000 on Kickstarter. Was it worth it to work for Funded Today? In our experience, you can say it was well worth it! They helped us raise over $700,000 of that money. Everything they do is transparent and they really kept us in the loop.”
“Crowdfunding is complex and there is a lot of behind the scenes analytical data that is needed in order to run a successful campaign. Out of the gates you’ll have your friend, family and percentage of your email list that will back your project, but once the traffic starts to die off, this is where you’ll realize that you not only need access to that important analytical data but need to know the fastest and most effective way to implement it. When you’re a Creator—there just isn’t time to figure all of that out—not even for our team of 7. Funded Today has the expertise to prevent you from making some bad decisions that could cost you your entire campaign, and the returns they are able to bring in are successful because they are rooted in analytical data. Numbers always tell an honest story, and they help you see where to pivot. With a short campaign, if you you do need to pivot, you need to do it quickly, and having their counsel on this has been amazing. I brought Funded Today on mid-campaign, and I regret that I did not bring them on pre-campaign as their services have not only proven to bring in a high ROI, but the professionalism, guidance, coaching, insider tips and support they provide is AMAZING! Do not wait until you are mid-campaign when your traffic starts dying off from friend and family to hire them, as it will cost you momentum and that early success that you need to keep getting direct traffic on Kickstarter itself. Also, I never felt like they were selling me on anything. I always felt like they were providing me with the education I needed to make logical business decisions based on numbers and data. They know their stuff and I could not imagine this journey without their support.”
“We hired Funded Today because our campaign had started to trend downward, like most Kickstarter campaigns. It worked out GREAT for us! We had raised $200K in the first 30 days of our campaign. We hired them for the last 10 days and they were able to raise us an ADDITIONAL $200,000! We ended up raising $400,000, which we were very pleased with and we knew we would not have raised nearly enough had we not gone with Funded Today. The really is no reason to not hire Funded Today, unless you have low margins. It worked out really well for us and I know they would work out great for many other creators as well!”
“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.”
