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!”
“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.”
“The end results were rather good. Thanks for the great work and support.”
“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.”
Barnacle Coasters: Raised $62,840
“We eclipsed our $10,000 goal within the first 24 hours and we had a successful launch party but after the first few days, our campaign hit the inevitable flatline, and that’s where we got Funded Today involved. We hired them starting on Day 5 of our campaign. Everything Funded Today did worked. From the day we hired them forward, we saw our projections and graph trend upward, until literally the last day of our campaign. We reached 6 times our original goal thanks to Funded Today! They are great! They answer your questions in a timely manner, they give you tips, and they know what they are doing. They are good partners!”
“Overall the FT helped the campaign above my expectation.”
“FT handled everything professionally.”
“Funded Today was flexible and willing to work with us in some of our unique circumstances. Gave good advice throughout our campaign and most importantly delivered results. Every bit of advice that I can recall that Funded Today had given us about what to expect with our campaign based on their experience turned out to be correct. Funded Today was always easy to reach and had numerous calls outside normal business hours. This was very helpful to me as I was still working at my day job and was working on our Kickstarter campaign on nights and weekends. We already had a successful Kickstarter campaign but Funded Today greatly boosted our raise. We engaged other marketing firms and by a wide margin Funded Today delivered the strongest results.”
“Thanks for the help! It has been a great experience working with FT! Very professional!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Such a great team to work with. Quick responses on Skype group chat are golden. They helped me raise over $500,000 on Kickstarter. Something that I once thought impossible. Hire them if you don’t have a dedicated marketing team or lost in the midst of campaign. Thank You, FT!”
“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.”
"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.”
PRVKE Backpacks: Raised $113,697
“We hired Funded Today when we had about two weeks left in the campaign and we just hit our goal of $60,000. With Funded Today’s help we reached $113,000. So more than what we would have been able to do on our own.”
“We worked with Funded Today and started a campaign on Kickstarter. We raised almost $250,000 and over 1,000 backers all over the world. We want to thank Funded Today.”
“Funded Today is the hottest thing in the Crowdfunding space haha”
“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. :)”
Notebook Wallets: Raised $62,163
“Funded Today is world class. We’ve launched a number of campaigns with them generating 100’s of thousands in sales. The key is having a solid product that resonates in the social spheres. It’s got to be innovative (wow factor). They’ll test for viability and know if they can take it on successfully. If you are a good fit, I guarantee they’ll take you SO MUCH further than you would ever do on your own! The stats don’t lie—over $100M raised across all clients. Why settle for others that have done much less?”
