Buzztilt

We tried several different crowdfunding services from PR to various backer communities to social media promotion to try and help our campaign get featured. Honestly, nothing worked except these guys. I felt they took their time from writing a quality release to getting it in front of the right people as we had several thousand in pledges after signing up. After getting our release out there in the world we scored several prominent features that put us over the top and that we continue to benefit from to this day.

We lost some money on the other services who looking back were just looking to make a quick buck. What can you do though, it was our first shot at crowdfunding and we wanted to do everything we could to make it happen. Glad we came across Buzztilt after searching online for a quality partner and hoping to launch another campaign with them again early next year.

This review is about 2 months old but we've been crazy busy fulfilling orders from our successful crowdfunding campaign!:-) Yes, that's right we made it happen and our project was funded on Kickstarter! We've been hearing lately how it's more and more difficult to get funded so I'm extremely grateful we found Buzztilt early on in our campaign to help get the word out about our project. The team was extremely professional, communication and customer service was quick to answer and always helpful, most of all they delivered on their service they promised in a big way getting our story in front of several major media outlets and blogs. Thanks again guys!

We launched our Kickstarter campaign and had a limited budget to spend on marketing / PR / advertising for our tech project. After sifting through what seemed like a ton of different companies and services (and receiving countless emails for more), we finally settled on Buzztilt as one of the companies we wanted to work with to help us generate a big media presence.

I'm actually the in-house PR person for our company and our CEO wanted to bring on an additional company to help with the workload as crowdfunding campaigns are heavily dependent on media coverage. Our whole team was wholly satisfied with the entire experience from start to finish. Professionalism, great communication, and most of all delivered on their service helping us get some pretty prominent features. It was pricey but worth the expense and we'd more than likely hire them again for our next project. Thanks guys!

To say we were desperate is an understatement. We had roughly 3 weeks to go in our campaign and weren't even halfway to our raise goal when we brought on Buzztilt. We hired another agency to start and that resulted in absolutely zero results so we were skeptical to hire another company.

Luckily, our fears were unfounded as they ended up being the perfect marketing and PR partner for our campaign. They moved incredibly quick and while realistic with setting goals, went to work right away to help us get the word out. A few days after they started they started landing us in several tech publications which really turned our momentum around and I believe made the difference for our campaign. Don't hesitate, one of the few true agencies out there who know what they're doing.

It's the little things that count when having to outsource work, especially one as important as your PR for your company. You want to make sure you're telling a great story for the world and doing it in the right way. We hired them for our Indiegogo campaign and every interaction with the team was courteous and professional from start to finish. You can tell these guys know what they're doing and deeply understand the crowdfunding world. We landed on Uncrate, Digital Trends, and a few smaller outlets as well thanks to their hustle and hard work. Some of those articles are still helping drive sales on our website to this day. We're hoping to launch a new product later this year and we'll definitely be hiring them again.

After first signing up for pre-launch help with another agency (whose name I won't mention here) our crowdfunding campaign's first week was absolutely dismal. No one was visiting our page and I wasn't even sure what this other company had actually did (they ghosted us completely after about 3 days). We need help and asap. After doing some research I came across Buzztilt and set up a conference call with my partner to discuss. Was impressed with their presentation so figured we would give it a go. The team was reassuring and absolutely took the time to do a deep dig on our campaign before speaking to us.

After signing up the team worked quickly with us to get everything prepared and before you know it a few days in were started to get picked up in the media. Smaller blogs at first but then bigger names started jumping on board before long. I can say without a doubt that working with Buzztilt helped us out more than anything else we did for our campaign (pre-launch or otherwise).

One of the best PR Agencies I've ever had the pleasure of working with, crowdfunding or otherwise, bar none. I work in the tech industry and am used to dealing with PR agencies and publicists on a pretty weekly basis so I definitely know what to look for as well as have certain expectations and understanding of what is and what isn't possible. When my team and I launched our crowdfunding side project we wanted to find a team that was experience in the crowdfunding industry and that's how we came across Buzztilt. The team was completely professional, moved quick, worked hard, and delivered results. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

We recently finished up a Kickstarter campaign and engaged with Buzztilt early on in our campaign. The experience was well worth it as they were able to get us featured on Mashable and a few other smaller tech / gadget blogs. Everything was delivered timely as promised and we were extremely happy with the results produced. More than that, the overall one-to-one interaction with everyone on the team was pleasant and friendly. Really felt they truly cared about our project and what we had created. Wouldn't hesitate to deal with them again.

We launched our first campaign earlier this month. While we didn't reach our campaign goal, we did learn a ton-- about the crowdfunding process, about our customers, and we got some great ideas / motivation about where to go next. We hired Buzztilt along with one company to help us get the word out. Of the 2, only Buzztilt was the only one able to deliver. We received an awesome feature that landed us on Mashable and gave us a ton of online word of mouth energy. Unfortunately we didn't get funded, but the PR recognition apparently was enough to get us on the radar of some very prominent investors who we are now talking to

We hired Buzztilt for our crowdfunding campaign with approximately 3 weeks to go and still a good amount of money left to raise for our Kickstarter campaign. We were in a niche category (non-tech) so I was skeptical of a lot of these companies that were emailing to offer help. To our surprise, Buzztilt came through in a big way getting us featured in very specific blogs related to our campaign. They were on top of everything, available to help and answer questions, and extremely helpful throughout the process. Couldn't recommend them enough.

We just wrapped up our Indiegogo campaign with Buzztilt and couldn't have been more pleased with the experience. From launch to close they were right there guiding us and assisting us for our first campaign and helped our campaign get several write ups in major media both in our local newspaper as well as national online media publications. Even though our campaign has been finished for a few weeks they've still kept in touch and sent us leads and reporter contact info for people still looking to cover our project. Incredibly impressed all around.

We hired Buzztilt a day before we were launching (I know last minute), but we had no idea about the different agencies and services that existed so we were late to the party on that end. We researched extensively and interviewed several agencies before settling on them and it was worth every penny. Since we were launching with 24 hours they expedited everything for us and we had our press release within a day to review and then they sent it out at one of their higher level packages. We ended up getting picked up in CNET, Digital Trends, and Mashable within a few days and we were funded within a week. We ended up in several other media and honestly we're still benefitting from that to this day. Couldn't have done it without them.

We launched our Indiegogo campaign with Buzztilt and couldn't have had a better experience. We're new to crowdfunding and it's a crazy process for sure. Equal parts stressful and difficult, it was good to have an experience partner on board that was able to walk us through the steps as well as provide insight and tips that we hadn't thought of personally. The press release was incredibly well written and attention grabbing (our first shot at it ourselves was way off base from the message we needed to be putting out there) and the results were great. Our campaign ended up featured in several top media outlets as well as a few smaller blogs and overall our team felt that having Buzztilt on board made the difference. Professional and great customer service as well. Thank you!

Weve launched two campaigns already and this is the first time weve used a service like this. When you launch, as a previous reviewer mentioned, it isnt unusual to receive various emails from different companies offering their services. After speaking to a representative at Buzztilt we came off incredibly impressed with their knowledge, that they actually spent time looking over our campaign, and their overall demeanor which gave us a good vibe. We spent a day talking it over and bit the bullet. Couldnt have been more pleased. The company put together a professional press release for us and we were able to generate solid pickup throughout the campaign which really helped us get over the top. Im not sure we wouldve made it without these guys. Looking forward to our next project with them on board!

We just wrapped up our Indiegogo campaign and wanted to leave some great words for the Buzztilt staff. We launched a 35 day campaign (design project) and hired them about 5 days in. Our campaign had stalled and we had exhausted most of our resources and personal contacts to contribute. We needed to boost our project and quick if we wanted to have any shot to succeed on this.

Luckily we came across their agency and I have to say it was a great overall experience working with them. Professional, knowledgeable, and delivered great results for our campaign. Shoutout to Mark our account manager. Within a week of starting they got our project on some pretty top name media and in the end we were overfunded with time to spare. I'll take off one star as the service was expensive, but I have to say it worth every penny and if we ever decide to crowdfund again, we'll go with them again.

Our first Kickstarter campaign was a disaster. We didn't get any traction, received only 20% of our raise goal, and didn't get written about anywhere. Worse yet, we used another service and lost money when they ended up doing absolutely nothing for us. We waited a few months, to really figure out what went wrong and develop a smart strategy. We know that PR is a major piece of every successful crowdfunding campaign these days so we wanted to bring on a serious agency. Just way too many campaigns these days to get noticed.

After doing our research we came across Buzztilt and were pleased with what we found. Clear professionals, set realistic expectations, and took the time to really understand our brand and project. We paid serious cash to bring them on board but it was worth it. They helped us get featured on several major menswear / lifestyle / streetwear / gadget blogs ("smart" wearable). We're extremely happy with every communication we had with the team and especially the results. This was our second time launching on Kickstarter but we won't do it again without them. Thank you so much.

We wrapped up our Kickstarter campaign back in December but wanted to leave a short review on our experience with Buzztilt. First things first, after you launch, be prepared to be solicited by hundreds of various services and agencies all promising wonderful things they can do to help your campaign. You'll be able to sift through them quick, just the quality of the websites alone and you can tell who is legitimate and who isn't.

Be prepared to pay a good amount money for a legitimate PR / marketing service like this but if you choose the right one it can be money well spent. I'm glad we selected Buzztilt after speaking with two members of their team and offering an honest assessment, felt like they were the partner for us. They had great turnaround time on everything they did from the service to the communication aspects that was consistent throughout. Got a sense they truly cared about making us a success and in the end we were. We're extending our partnership in a few months once we launch our e-commerce store.

Within hours of launching on Kickstarter we were bombarded with emails by so many different companies claiming they could help us promote our project and get us funded. Honestly 95% of them you could tell were either fake and/or shady. We've been building companies for almost 10 years, this isn't our first rodeo.

Our team spent 3 days doing our research wanting to seek a quality partner and they immediately caught our eye while searching on Google. After scheduling a call they gave us the run down on our project. It was a tech gadget but nothing groundbreaking or crazy; mostly just a serious improvement on everything else out there. We decided to take a chance. After about a week and a half of signing up we started to see real traction and our project received write-ups in several top tech sites just like we were hoping.

Definitely impressed with the level of service. It was pricey but luckily it ended up being more than worth the money we spent. They were always available when we needed them and provided a solid report of everything they were able to make happen. I did a lot of research before jumping on board and obviously no PR company can guarantee anything but we ended up getting solid coverage and being extremely satisfied with our decision and the high level of customer service and client support. Recommended.

Hired them for a recent campaign about a month ago on Kickstarter. It was our first experience with crowdfunding and I have to say the whole thing was daunting as a first timer for my partner and I. We brought Buzztilt on board about a day before our launch and had a very pleasant experience overall. Our account manager Chris that we were working with was extremely helpful and could tell he genuinely cared about our project. We had a TON of questions and the team was extremely patient and helpful, going above and beyond to answer everything and offered a ton of advice on what we could do on our side to keep pushing our project.

They helped us land on a few blogs and two big name ones in particular (TIME and HuffPost) that came on board which made a huge difference. I honestly cant thank them enough for their professionalism and help throughout the whole process. We have plans to launch a new campaign sometime next year and hopefully looking forward to working with them again. Thank you!

Shortly after launching our campaign was dead to say the least. We tapped out of our mailing list and Facebook advertising wasn't converting at all. A few companies contacted us but they wanted massive percentages of our final raise and/or on each individual pledge. We just couldn't afford to do that and weren't crazy about giving us so much of our company in the early stages. (We're here to raise money not give it away!)

After a reference from a co-worker who was part of a crowdfunding project a few years ago passed over a tip on Buzztilt we decided to check them out. After reviewing our project they agreed to take us on and started moving fast after that. After sending them over what they requested from then it was on. Needless to say they delivered on all aspects and were incredibly professional throughout the entire process. We scored at least 2 major pickups and several other small ones and crossed the finish line with a week to go. It was a pricey investment but overall I wish we had hired them sooner.

Crowdfunding without a doubt is one of the most stressful things weve done yet in our companys young life. Eesh. To cut a long story short, we were down to 15 days and still had a good $10k to go for our raise goal. In other words, the odds were against us that we were going to hit our raise goal. We were spending big on Facebook advertising but our conversion rate just wasnt getting there and unless we doubled our spending, we were still going to fall short. We thought long and hard about bringing on some outside work and after reaching out to Buzztilt I felt confident we found a good partner but still knew were facing long odds. After all with only a little over 2 weeks left what could they pull off?

We had to take a shot though, starting off a company with a crowdfunding failure isnt the way we wanted to start, and knew if we could get funded the momentum would help us longterm with investors, etc. Incredibly, they went to work immediately, they assured us they could make no guarantees and I appreciated the candid honesty, there was no hard sell, and they let us know the reality were facing but they loved our product and story and were willing to give us a shot. They had a quick turnaround time and within days we were featured on Uncrate and several other gadget type sites. I usually dont like hiring outside services and prefer to do things in-house but I felt like for the duration they were with us that they were part of our team hustling to make it happen. Thanks again guys it was a pleasure.
