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.”
“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.”
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!”
“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.”
“Your business went above and beyond what I expected, extremely professional!”
“Thanks for the help! It has been a great experience working with FT! Very professional!”
“Funded.Today has an amazing track record. I was lucky to be one of their first few campaigns, since one of the founders (Zach) was a personal friend (and an impressive businessman). I honestly wouldn’t have succeeded without them. Now they’re doing incredible things like taking campaigns that may have made $100K and making them 500K to a million. They are honest, hard workers from what I’ve seen. They might not be for every campaign, as some of the fellow kickstarters I recommended were passed on because funded today didn’t want to ‘cut into their campaign’s profits’ But hey, that’s the kind of attitude that wins my respect. I can tell they really love to help others succeed! As for the other services who contacted me during my campaign, I didn’t think I could trust the others. :)”
“We raised below $3.1 million with the help of Funded Today.”
“I trust Funded Today. They seem like they’ve been doing this for a period of time.”
"Book of Psalms": Raised $66,494
“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.”
“Overall, our Kickstarter campaign (Olarm) raised almost $200,000, so we're very proud of that, especially for our first campaign. We attribute a lot of that effort to the good work that Funded Today did for us.”
“Thank you very much for Funded Today’s help. We’ll definitely do our next project with Funded Today. Great job!”
“I got the team from Funded Today involved about 5 days before my campaign ended. The first thing to say is: I REALLY wish I’d got them involved very much sooner! I think the ONLY question you need to ask yourself in getting involved with these guys is: Is my project good enough for them? I have NEVER, EVER had a more effective business relationship that worked sooo smoothly, sooo quickly, and so effectively, it really was quite amazing! We raised DOUBLE the amount we expected to raise. We began to plateau so we hired Funded Today and now within the first 2-3 days of working together and cross talk, I found Funded Today extremely hands-on, very communicative, very honest, and very straightforward. We formed a Skype group quite quickly and that was really useful for me so I was kind of living it along with them. And once they got going, WOW did they get going. Our curve of pledges just took off! It was absolutely outstanding. I’ve never seen anything like it. It was almost that sort of question: ‘Wow, what’s the magic here!?’ But, it’s not magic. It’s just sheer skill. They know what they are doing. I would have no hesitation, whatsoever, in recommending Funded Today to any Kickstarter or IndieGoGo campaign. It’s a no brainer. Get them in as early as you possibly can. And have no qualms, whatever, about the percentage they charge because it’s absolutely worth it. I am a hard-nosed Scottish businessman and believe you me, I don’t part with money easily. But these guys are completely worth it. I have NEVER seen anything like it. I’m going to use them again as quickly as I can as I have other campaigns in my pipeline, and I’m delighted to recommend them, wholeheartedly, to anyone out there!”
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.”
Rever Vant Clipfolds: Raised $60,338
“We raised about $60,000 thanks to Funded Today’s efforts. These guys are very experienced at what they do. If you’re looking to launch a Kickstarter or IndieGoGo campaign I would definitely consider working with Funded Today to take your project to the next level. Will I consider working with Funded Today again? Oh yeah, most definitely! Thank you, Funded Today, I really appreciate it.”
“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.”
Thread Wallets: Raised $35,377
“It was more than a pleasure to work with Funded Today. I can tell you straight up that without Funded Today we definitely wouldn’t have been able to raise what we did.”
Magna Carta Playing Cards: Raised $82,271
“I brought Funded Today on because their case studies are just phenomenal. I wanted their expertise on my campaign. I really liked their professionalism. Even though they have a certain business model, how to market and grow a campaign, they had never worked with a playing card campaign before, and they were STILL able to make it possible, despite not knowing certain variables of how prospective customers or backers would react! Without Funded Today, we probably would have stalled. With Funded Today, we were able to have very steady growth, something that I had never seen before with Kickstarter (i.e. most campaigns stall out or plateau in Funding). Exponential growth would have been better! haha, but, I’ll take steady growth any day as well. They were really easy to reach on Skype, all the time. They had a great group chat set-up for me on Skype. After a week of testing, you could sort of feel the effort levels drop a little bit because my campaign did not make them as much profit, perhaps, as others of their really successful campaigns. Overall, I would fully recommend anyone that is doing a design product or technology product to go with Funded Today AS SOON AS POSSIBLE because they have those categories down and they will not disappoint!”
“Been working with FT for a few years now over several campaigns. Supply them what they need, and they’ll deliver. Would recommend.”
“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.”
“[Funded Today has] been highly professional and I would definitely recommend [them] to others who ask about a crowd funding solution.”
“Overall the FT helped the campaign above my expectation.”
“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.”
“To the entire Funded Today Team: THANK YOU!!! Funded Today was great and we really appreciate them being so flexible with the deal structure. We know it’s not something they typically do. We’re very happy with the results and will be creating the testimonial video soon.”
JOEY Backpack: Raised $233,656
“We brought Funded Today on about 10 before the end. We really liked that they made contact immediately and got all of our materials. They used those marketing materials for their own campaign. Their communication was open and honest and they were reached easily. They raised a little under $35,000 in roughly 9 days, which spiked the end of our campaign and spiked our campaign and influenced the algorithms on Kickstarter. They really helped our campaign. Funded Today charged a percentage of the profits and while daunting at first, it’s definitely worth out and turned out to be our best decision towards the end of our Kickstarter campaign. The results Funded Today achieved could not be done by anyone else.”
