I am an employee of Crowd PR. We did the PR for the Shonin Wearable Camera campaign. Shonin has added the Crowd PR badge and website address to the bottom of their kickstarter page for verification: kickstarter.com/projects/shonin/shonin. Check out our website: http://www.crowd.pr
MY MESSAGE 1:
I’m not looking at that campaign, I don’t do the work, that is your job. If you want to work for my campaign, then submit a proposal as well as 9 references. I’m not really interested though, we’re doing just fine without any marketing. I don’t pay for marketing, I pay for results.

Again, I’m not doing any work. You need a find a way to prove to me that you did those campaigns. How much do you charge for crowdfunding promotion?
CROWD PR MESSAGE 3:
Our rate is $3k per month, and we work with many of our clients post-kickstarter for continuing PR if you move to indiegogo indemand.

There you have it folks. Beware of Crowd.PR. They charge $3k and they don’t even have a way to show they did the campaigns they take credit for. This firm is definitely a no go for me.

You asked them to work for zero upfront and they told you they dont' work that way. Doesn't mean they are a scam. Anyways though a really good company is one who works for zero upfront.
I have heard reports of agencies paying for their clients advertisements even. Now that is the kind of agency you want to work with, one that charges you nothign, covers your costs, and you only have to pay if the campaign is a success.drudge wrote:I keep a log of the crowdfunding agencies i research for my campaigns, it helps me remember which ones to avoid when im live. and i just so happen to have a convo from crowd.pr.
