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.”

“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.”
“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 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.”
“Your business went above and beyond what I expected, extremely professional!”

“We know Funded Today did their best and they were a pleasure to work with. Extremely diligent and professional. I wish all of the consultants we engaged were as forthcoming!”
“The first week of Kickstarter went really well as we were able to tap into our friends and family network and then we started to kind of plateau and our daily pledges really weren’t that great so we reached out to Funded Today and they were very responsive. Everything was pretty much through email and then their Client Skype group. They were very honest with us about doing the Product Validation and Due Diligence Period and seeing if they could find some ad sets that would convert to pledges. After those first 5-7 days, we were excited because they took us on! And, at first, we weren’t really sure, because that 5-7 days they aren’t really scaling at that time so you do see your pledges go up but it’s not like anything that is out of the ordinary and we weren’t really sure they were going to take us on because I think they only take on like 40-50% of the people who go to them and pay that money during the Product Validation and Due Diligence Phase. But we understood that risk and we were really excited when we passed the first initial tests. Then, they scaled our campaign after the Product Validation and Due Diligence Period. They had originally told us that we were only to raise $25,000 based upon our $8,200 goal and we were going to be really happy about that because that was going to pay back a lot of our costs and that would really show that we had something and that people/backers would actually buy our product. So, when we saw our pledge count at the end of our 45 day campaign reach $60,000, we were more than ecstatic! Again, the process at Funded Today, I call it ‘MAGICAL’ because they really do things that I have no idea how they get the pledges and conversions they do, but we were really ecstatic to see the pledges go up and we were ecstatic to see the results that we saw. They were very honest and diligent about helping us to make some changes on our campaign that would help us. I cannot say enough about Funded Today. It’s nice when you kind of think something is going to turn out the way it does and then it actually does and Funded Today really helped us do what we were trying to accomplish. We’re really excited about the end results. So, I would recommend Funded Today to anybody but there are always risked involved with whatever company you partner with and everybody offers you everything when you are on Kickstarter and all of these people come out of the woodwork and promise you how they can help you grow your Kickstarter campaign but honestly, Funded Today really was able to do that. Thanks again to Funded Today!”

“I love you guys. Your enthusiasm makes my day. Thanks for the positivity—I couldn’t have been more grateful I chose you.”
“I used Funded Today for the marketing services and, yeah, I got a good result with them. The best thing was the cross-promotions worked really really really well and also I thought the communication was great. We used Skype and it was just easy to talk with everyone and so everyone responded pretty quickly. So, yeah, I had a good experience using Funded Today and I’d use them again for another crowdfunding project.”

“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.”
Breton Backpacks for Professionals: Raised $74,278
“Our first Kickstarter campaign and we hired Funded Today for our marketing and they were phenomenal. They helped us raise $242,000 and there was no way we could have raised that amount of money without their help. We started working with them about a month and a half before we launched our campaign and helped us know that we should push our campaign back and develop more media and develop our campaign more so that they’d be more successful. Just seeing everything they can do and the people constantly working on our campaign and the concern with how it was doing was incredible. I don’t think we could have done any better and couldn’t have had any better managing team then Funded Today. If you’re going to run a Kickstarter campaign use the best, use Funded Today and don’t waste your time.”
Merino Tech 2.0: Raised CA$ 156,609
“We worked with Funded Today for just one week and it was a really amazing one week! They helped us more than double our pledges in just one week! We really appreciated their work. And we look forward to another cooperation with Funded Today for our next campaign.”
“Using Funded Today feels like cheating. We are so happy with the results.”
“Working with Funded Today was an amazing experience. Honest, Hardworking, Professionals is the best way I can think to describe this group. They know the crowdfunding space and are the best at what they do. When we hit ‘Launch’ on our campaign they took over all things marketing and we were able to focus on the manufacturing of our product and responding to our backers questions. It made our campaign an enjoyable and ‘mostly’ stress free experience. We highly recommend working with them.”
“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!”
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 contacted Funded Today and that’s when things really changed. After one week of test and Funded Today was at full capacity the results were amazing. The rest of the campaign the pledges were rocketing up every day. At the end of the campaign with the help of Funded Today the campaign ended at $460,000. If I would do it again the first thing I would be to make sure that I have Funded Today collaboration in my approach. Results were amazing and I really like working with Funded Today. Daily reports everything was really clear where we were going, what was going on. It was really easy to follow. I’ll honestly tell you I’m really really happy we did what we did that day I picked up the phone and called Funded Today.”
“With the help of FundedToday, we made it finally for our project—Titanic X. As the creator of the 4th watch projects, I can say that we were still a begainner on three times before, until we have cooperated with FundedToday this time. According to on past experience, our initial target amount was HK$80K and 40 backers. Under the boost by FT team, the project eventually raised HK$630K and the number was close to 300 backers, which is more than we expected. Exceed nearly 8 times. This made us quite shocked and satisfied with this. Until now, we have just learned how to run a crowdfunding plan. The whole process let me know what TEAMWORK is and the FT team will contact us closely through SKYPE. The team’s individual division of work is quite clear, and each person’s task progress is updated every day, which is quite efficient and transparent. In addition to professional marketing techniques. In some of my major decisions, they will not only provide support but will also guide me and make some professional advices so that I can resolve the problems. If I have a new project in the future, I will definitely continue to cooperate with FT.”
“Funded Today is the hottest thing in the Crowdfunding space haha”
“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.”
