Positive experience We had a positive experience working with FT on our MadClockMaker project. When we launched our campaign by ourselves we gathered $ 7,000 by the 10th day of the campaign. Then we decided to collaborate with FT, who helped us to raise near $41,000 in 35 days. This fact also impacted our organic traffic so we were able to raise $78,014 by the end of the campaign. We would like to mention great communication with FT team, who helped and support us during all the period via Skype. Generally, we got the best results thanks to their several services as - FB ads - newsletter and cashback newsletter - new channel - posts on social media.

Hire Funded Today at your own risk Hire Funded Today at your own risk. .we hired them for marketing our Kickstarter program and it was the worst mistake we could have made. Jordan David, the sleezy salesman (felt like a used car salesman in the way they are portrayed in the movies), slick talked his way through a presentation and once we paid the $2500 fee, disappeared and had "his team" doing the "work" which he then indicated he was not responsible for. They were non communicative, incompetent, not knowledgeable, and incapable of providing us the result that a quality company could. They took $400 for CrowdStock, which was supposed to automatically refill the available amounts of the product as they are pledged but it never happened and we had to manually track it due to supposed programming changes Kickstarter made. When asked for the contact from Jordan, he couldn't get one, even though he gave us the instructions to pay them. When i went to the site to fill out a contact form, it bounced back saying that jordan$crowdstock.io was no longer active. LOLOL, it's part of their company but they are saying it's not and won't provide the $400 refund even though ZERO work was done to earn that money. Not to mention, we ran social media ads and could tell every time they stopped due to a drop in activity and were told, oh we turned them off because you ran out of money, oh wait, you have money left, let's turn them back on?????? It's their business to drive sales and they can't either keep track of the ad spend or communicate to us that we needed to add more money to the budget? There is no portal to see any progress, you're flying totally blind and getting a response from anyone via Skype, the ONLY method they will communicate, is impossible. When I tried to have a call with Jordan he asked "what's it about? If it's about the ads, I can't help you ask Josh" It was always someone else's problem unless he was trying to collect money. Billing was not aware of any of the prior pledges we had brought to the table and tried to charge us, they didn't know that we were told $500 of the $2500 was included in the ad spend, etc. Needless to say, I would not recommend this company, I know their response is going to be "well you made X dollars compared to your original campaign which made a lot less" which is an unacceptable answer when our internal goal was a lot higher and COULD have been obtained if not for the inept service. I tried to reach out to a founder of the company and got NOTHING. Bad news, you've been warned.

Honestly, I couldn't expect any worse. Premise: our Kickstarter project wasn't successful and we're fully aware that this is not (only) caused Funded Today's. It's a series of things that just didn't work out well. However, our experience with Funded Today has been horrible and we couldn't be more disappointed. We purchased a pre-campaign and the newsletter + ads services, for a total of 5.500 USD. During the pre-campaign phase, we experienced: - A confusing and approximate planning. We've been forced to postpone our launch multiple times because Funded Today missed all the deadlines multiple times or made silly mistakes. - An awful Email Lead Generation landing page. The first version was dramatic, and they started promoting it with a wrong project name, a wrong URL slug, a completely misleading design and without waiting for our approval, also wasting some of our ads budget. The second version was slightly better, but still not even close to our expectations. And the ELG performance has been extremely poor, as expected. During the live campaign: - The results from ads have also been disappointing, but the experience here was not that dramatic and they communicated with us in a more accurate and timely manner. - About the newsletter, we're wondering how is it possible that we obtained only a hundreds of views from a mailing list with hundreds of thousands of subscribers (as they claim). Maybe Funded Today's mailing list quality and its open rate are not as good as they say, and definitely not worth the extremely high price they ask for. And then, the cherry on top: - At the end of the campaign, they sent a survey to all our backers, on our behalf and using our account, asking for their personal data (i.e. email address) with a scammy form and without prior approval from us. This is not just illegal, it's also extremely unfair. In conclusion, working with Funded Today has been a complete waste of time and money. We had to postpone the launch for several weeks, they stole email addresses from our backers sending a scammy survey on our behalf and they've been unclear, hasty, inaccurate most of the time. And — most importantly — they disappeared and started to ignore all our messages when the it was clear that the project wouldn't have reached the goal. This is so unprofessional and unfair that it's really hard to believe. If you're about to launch a project on Kickstarter, do yourself a favor: avoid Funded Today. Please. I also reported all of the above to Kickstarter, as I believe it is in their interest not to be associated, affiliated or linked to Funded Today. We're now considering to take legal action. If you also had a similar experience with them, send me a message. I've read hundreds of bad reviews like mine and I'm pretty sure we can join forces for a class action.

Awesome experience- They always delivers! It's always great to work with the Funded Today team. They always deliver when needed the most! Great experience & good job guys! When our campaign got stagnated, they gave the required push which managed to earn it over $50,000!

Got a good product? Use them and you will definitely get good result! I was hesitant to use Funded Today at first as there were some bad reviews on some online websites. However, after speaking with their sales manager(Jordan). I've changed my mind completely, he is very friendly, helpful and professional. He showed me some examples of other campaigns and how much they helped to raise. I am quickly convinced and proceed to go with their email list service. I am very pleased with the result, the email list brought in over 100 backers and approximately $6k in funding which result in a good ROI. I will highly recommend their email and cashback services as it would definitely work if you have a good product!
