GBFunded Today - Email Marketing We used Funded Today for email marketing on our Kickstarter campaign: GravGrip | Battery Free Camera Stabilization. Funded Today helped out in the final days of our campaign. They were quick to act and helped us collect an additional $30,000 in tracked funding. I would recommend the use of their new email marketing channel. Give it a look!

CADidn't send out newsletter then refused refund I booked a newsletter with a few companies. Funded.Today being one of them. I booked everything with them and sent the required access for my kickstarter project. I sent followup requests when the project launched and never heard back from the Funded.Today Team. I sent an email about 5 days after launch asking for a refund and then they proceeded to tell me that they don't do refunds even though the service wasn't even attempted to be delivered. He then went to explain that there's multiple companies under the same umbrella which essentially use the same resources and end up charging you twice. This was not disclosed so I wanted to get a refund and didn't want to work with them. They then basically told me to go away and refuse to do a refund. I'm also filing a police report against them.

UAI do not advise dealing with them. I do not advise dealing with them. We contacted Funded Today on the recommendation of our colleagues when our Kickstarter campaign had already started and raised the first $ 20k. We were promised decent results and a lot of opportunities for working with Facebook and e-mail distribution in the backers database. As a result, they set up advertising on Facebook much worse than our specialists and there were no results at all, and their mailing gave additional sales of about $ 5k ... we got all the rest of the income from backers passively, without the efforts of people from Fund Today. For all their services, they billed us about $ 8k, which did not correspond to the work performed at all. Manager Jordan stopped responding to our messages altogether when he realized that they had done their job poorly. P.S. In addition, be aware that they can steal your customer base and edit your Kickstarter campaign without your consent, which was also in our case.

GBThis service is a scam They kept chasing us to work with them and convinced us that they would help us succeed with our Kickstarter. We paid them for Kickstarter design, newsletter and ads. After payment, funded today went quiet for 2 weeks, and then finally started with the design. Their first draft was horrible, the second edit round made it even worse. And by that time, we were 6 weeks further! Delays upon delays and lie on a lie, funded today kept us running behind them as soon as we paid. We hired a freelancer to design the page for us. It took her 4 days and we were ready to launch. If it was not for Funded today. They didn't reply for 1 week, and then told us they would need 3 more weeks before we could go live. 3 more weeks on top of their massive delay already... but we did not have a choice. We paid them, they didn't want to refund us, so we kept waiting. We launched, finally, 5 weeks ago. After 2 days, funded today totalled us $650. 650 dollars!!!!! That's all these scammers got us! No support, no help, only that our product was not good and they needed to stop their efforts. Hold on, they chased us before we even went live with our campaign, with daily emails from Jordan. Their scammy sales tactics made us lose 3 months of our time, expenses totalling over $8000 and nothing to show for it. If you have a dream of launching a successful Kickstarter then DO NOT listen to their stories and do not go overboard when they send you daily emails. They do not have your interests in mind, only their bank account and will drop you as soon as you paid them.

GBI never thought that ignoring customers was a successful business strategy. I paid this company $2,500 to help my Kickstarter campaign and all I got out of it was two 20 minute phone calls and a 71 page manual which was not relevant to my needs. Don't trust this company.
