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.”
“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.”
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.”
“WOW!!! That is AMAZING! Thank you so much for going the extra mile when Funded Today really didn’t have to. We appreciate it so much!”
“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.”
“A huge thank you to Funded Today for making our Product become alive! really amazing!”
Born To Fly Baby: Raised AU $35,472
“Thank you so much for all of Funded Today’s efforts. Funded Today’s conclusions also align with our own efforts, although the click through rate that Jill achieved was higher than ours so we know Funded Today has been doing a fabulous job :-) The unexpected thing we found is that the product is wildly popular, but that it is not suited to crowdfunding. It is better placed in the retail/commercial sales world. Fortunately, we have had great success in this area and are currently in negotiations regarding signing on with Australia’s largest carseat and stroller brand, and have all but secured massive distribution agreements with Scandinavia, South Korea and the Middle East—which has a lucrative potential well beyond what we anticipated. Thank you for providing a great service, and if we have any more products more suited to the Kickstarter platform in the future, we will be sure to repeat the same process with Funded Today again.”
“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.”
"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.”
“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.”
“I launched a successful Kickstarter campaign with the help of Funded Today. I used they from the very start of my campaign and overall we raised over $75,000 with a thousand backers. They were always open to chatting whether it be on the phone of Skype. Very open, honest and knowledgable about the ads they were putting in place and the audiences they would select. They were also very open to my feedback on who we should target and different potential options that we could move forward with. Very collaborative. Definitely happy with Funded Today. Definitely would us them again. Would recommend them. They bring in a lot of new backers. If you need help with marketing and that’s not your expertise then go to Funded Today and they can certainly help you out.”
“Our product maik wall frames is about to launch on Kickstarter March 26th 2018. We are working with Funded Today to help with the PR of our kickstarter campaign and they are just fantastic. Because this is our first campaign we have had so many questions that needed answering and Funded Today has been there for us every time we needed help. I’m not sure how we could have been ready for the launch without them. Our client specialist Jordan David has the experience needed to guide us through the set up process and have saved us so much time and energy in explaining what we need to do at each stage. When I read about what advice I could give other Kickstarter creators I felt I should give my experience because there may well be PR companies that offer much more than they actually are able to deliver. Check out what the PR company have actually done for other campaigns and the proof is in the pudding. I chose Funded Today because they have raised over $175,000,00 for creators around the world, I doubt a dodgy company could achieve that and keep doing it day in day out. They have helped with email generation in the pre-launch and have been brilliant at communicating exactly what they will do for us from our launch date. So choose carefully when looking around but we are very happy with our choice. The maik wall frames team.”
“We brought on Funded Today for the last 2 weeks and we went from $10,000 in the first 3 weeks to $40,000 in the last 2 weeks—we went from on pace of being $15,000 to reaching $50,000. Results-based—that’s what it comes down to—and Funded Today got that for us. Again, it’s all about getting eyeballs onto your campaign, and we did a lot of work to try to do that, and Funded Today was phenomenal—working with their team, great communication (getting back to us all hours of the day, weekends, things like that)—they were great!”
“I am absolutely thrilled with my experience. My only regret is that I didn’t start with them from day one. Their team is very professional, extremely responsive—we kind of created like our own individual Skype channel so that I could post up a question and get an immediate response. I would highly recommend them; if we ever do another campaign, I absolutely would not do it without them.”
“Overall, our Kickstarter campaign (Olarm) raised almost $200,000, so we're very proud of that, especially for our first campaign. We attribute a lot of that effort to the good work that Funded Today did for us.”
AUS-ION Cookware: Raised AU$ 455,822
“We enlisted Funded Today on our 8th Kickstarter campaign. We found that Funded Today kept that graph trending up then of course that big rush at the end. Certainly worth a look and we were happy with the final result.”
“We started talking to Funded Today about midway through the project and out rate of growth was plateauing. We had raised about 117% of our goal then Funded Today managed the second half of the campaign and managed to raise 660% which is a huge, huge growth. Really enjoyed working with them. Their communication was great. They went out of their way to talk to us at the hours that were convenient for us. Which was hugely helpful. I would definitely recommend anybody to work with Funded Today on their campaign.”
“We expected to work with professionals and we were pleased to find that to be true.”
“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!”
“I love you guys. Your enthusiasm makes my day. Thanks for the positivity—I couldn’t have been more grateful I chose you.”
“We raised below $3.1 million with the help of Funded Today.”
“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 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.”
Ultimate Belts: Raised $180,326
“This is the 2nd time we’ve teamed up with the folks at FUNDED TODAY to boost our Kickstarter campaign and we can say without hesitation ”The are awesome!” In both instances FT gave our projects a BIG push upward, adding thousands of backers and a lot more sales. Without their efforts we would have had only mediocre success on KS, not the over the top record-breaking success they provided. They are real pros at what they do and cover all the bases. Moving ahead, we look forward to working together again—for a 3rd time!”
“I’m extremely grateful to have worked with Funded Today. The biggest thing that stuck out to me is despite being an online or digital service, most of their communication being email, phone and Skype the personal touch that Funded Today has was much more than I expected. I was always able to get a hold of the people assigned to my project. I was also able to speak with the founders of Funded Today one on one. I found that to be very comforting and very professional. After seeing a long history of solid results prior to my campaign and then seeing it with my campaign as well I also suggested the services of Funded Today to other project creators and I’ve seen them deliver time and time again. For those projects. I highly suggest you work with Funded Today don’t hesitate.”
