LaunchBoom Reviews 172

For those who are new to Kickstarter, Meta advertising and marketing in general, this is the perfect crash-course to teach you exactly what you need to know to launch. Their playbook walks you through step-by-step with regular reviews from the team and access to feedback and support any time you need it. At the end of it all you not only have a well crafted marketing strategy and Kickstarter, you also have the knowledge to do it all again. Even I, with years of previous marketing experience and two Kickstarters under my belt, found it extremely useful. It's the best sort of education.

I used LaunchBoom for my Kickstarter campaign, and I have to say, they are incredibly professional and responsive. They know what they’re doing, and their strategy works very well. I had a lot of questions, and my specialist, Victor, answered them promptly and offered great advice, which ultimately helped me deliver a successful Kickstarter campaign. I highly recommend LaunchBoom if you are 1) a first-time Kickstarter creator, 2) value professionalism and transparent communication, and 3) want to get hands-on and learn the process well. Let's go LaunchBoom 💪💪

Launchboom went above and beyond. If you are launching a product on crowdfunding, they are the masters, there really is no other option.

Through their platform, playbook and team, you get the benefit of hundreds of successful campaigns - which will save you a lot of wasted time (and money).

The platform and playbook are super optimised and easy to use. I'm a big believed in their $1 deposit playbook.

And the team are just incredible. They are all enormous experts, incredibly nice people to work with and they truly care about your success.

Update Februari 2025:

I sent proof to Trustpilot. My review is confirmed real. Launchboom keeps pretending I, and many others who complain are not real reviews. Even when we can prove it. Be warned!

Be careful!

Our experience with launchboom was pretty disappointing, just like many others'. We paid out big $, excited about what they promised us and all the success stories they told us.

When we actually got down to using their stuff, it wasn't all that special. I mean, sure, there were some useful tips, but nothing you couldn't find online for free.

And as for their success rate? Turns out, it's not as impressive as they claim. Most of their projects flop, plain and simple.

In the Launchboom group, you will find that most creators failed their campaign! Most of them!

Launchboom only talks about their success, but these are limited. most people lose their 8k + investment and all what was put into ads, often another 10-15k just at the start.

You will notice on this trustpilot account, they have frequent posts of reviews, all positive, almost like clockwork. Makes you wonder if they are real. They are mostly, not.

Even when you would discount this, they claim to run over 200 projects a year. Most do not review, as... they fail. Just like our project failed.

UPDATE November 02:
Launchboom pretends that we are not a customer. We have shared proof of working with them before. This says a lot about how they operate.

Most of their reviews here are fake, just look at the accounts posting them - you'll see what I mean. A group of us who got duped by Launchboom are working on a website to expose what's really happening and what they are doing.

They love posting about their successes, but never mention how most projects fail using their system.

When you're paying that much money, it looks like you've got a good chance. But here's the truth - most projects don't succeed with their system. Plain and simple.

We're building an open forum with others who've been through this so people can see the real story.

Just trying to save you from making the same expensive mistake we did. If you have all the money to spare on a course and know their marketing claims and successes are only a few, then it's ok. If you have a budget you need to be careful of, this company might just be the end of your project by taking your money and deliver an average course.

Great communication with the Launchboom team, a great platform for collaborative learning of the crowdfunding process, and all in all, a great experience!

I recently partnered with LaunchBoom for our crowdfunding campaign. Their expertise shone through in their pre-launch marketing efforts, which effectively built a solid early backer base. The communication from their team was consistently clear and helpful, providing frequent updates and insightful advice.

Overall, I recommend LaunchBoom to anyone looking for detailed support in their crowdfunding!

Launchboom helped me to raise over $165k from 1350+ backers, hitting 2600% of my funding goal. As a first-time entrepreneur with no experience of launching on Kickstarter, I am certain I would not have achieved this without them.

Their team demonstrated exceptional expertise and professionalism throughout the entire process. From the initial consultation to the final launch, they were responsive, knowledgeable, and dedicated to ensuring my campaign’s success (with a special shout-out to Soren for this!).

They have a great approach to crowdfunding support, which is quite unique amongst the agencies I spoke to. They work hand in hand with you, but you implement the changes. For me, this is the best way to get support, as it has helped me build the skills that I will rely on as I scale the business. I didn’t want the marketing, product positioning, audience understanding, etc., to be a black box, as it would have been if I had worked with an agency that did it all for me.

Launchboom has a structured process that they guide you through, helping you to iterate all parts of the prelaunch and campaign, as well as coaching you on the essential skills you need to make it a success. They have built a huge community of creators at different stages of their crowdfunding journey, providing access to a wealth of knowledge. Their community platform hosts years of comments where you can find answers to most questions and learn from other campaigns. For instance, people share insights on which newsletters worked for them, which helps massively with knowing who will bring great results and who won’t.

I thought Launchboom was great, and I wholeheartedly recommend them. I will definitely work with them again on my next product launch.

LaunchBoom is such an absolutely key part of the success of our Kickstarter campaigns! We started with zero following for our first game, Botany, and LaunchBoom's system helped us build a phenomenal fanbase of really quality customers who kicked off our campaign in a way that we had never imagined was possible. Their crew is incredibly nice and knowledgeable, and we used them again for our second Kickstarter campaign this year with phenomenal results the second time around as well. I absolutely recommend them to anyone who will listen!

I recently reached out to LaunchBoom for assistance with my Kickstarter campaign for a premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil product. Although they determined that their services might not be the best fit for my specific project, I was incredibly impressed with their honesty and transparency. Rather than trying to push their services, they respectfully communicated their decision and provided me with valuable resources to help me on my journey.

Their professionalism and genuine interest in my project's success, even when it meant referring me elsewhere, are commendable. I highly appreciate their integrity and support, and I would recommend LaunchBoom to anyone looking for a trustworthy and experienced crowdfunding partner.

Thank you, LaunchBoom, for your honesty and for going the extra mile to ensure I have the tools I need to succeed

Great team, best experience you can wish for when it comes to Kickstarter. They care about every step of the process and ensure you are informed so you can make the right decisions.

LaunchBoom is quite clear in what they can deliver and the upfront cost is well worth it. Currently, they don’t require a percentage of your raised funds, which is a huge benefit while planning your campaign and a worthwhile investment. Too many marketing and advertising companies take a percentage of your raise.

LaunchBoom is pretty clear and forthright that your project might not reach a successful raise and provide safeguards and check ins along the way to honestly access your projects viability. There is risk and speculation involved with any crowdfunding project, but I found LaunchBoom’s numbers to be quite accurate. Any questions I had were answered quickly.

Where LaunchBoom really shines is through the resources it provides. If you have little experience with crowdfunding and want to do a lot yourself, this is an ideal service. There are templates, guides, and walkthroughs, but be prepared to do a lot yourself. They tell you what a successful ad entails and advise who to market to but you are still in charge with creating your marketing content—a plus in my view.

LaunchBoom is a robust advisor and resource but know that there is still a lot of work and money involved in creating a campaign. I found a lot of success using their service and recommend it to anyone with design skills and resources or with a great crowdfunding idea. Be prepared to learn and be open to invest in your campaign.

LaunchBoom was an incredible partner helping our team prepare for our first crowdfunding project on Kickstarter, and the results were above and beyond our expectations helping us achieve over 1000% our funding goal. The LaunchBoom team's professional guidance to understand the nuances of the crowdfunding environment, what metrics we need to focus on in order to meet our goals, and understanding on a deeper level what is involved when launching a new product via crowdfunding was overall invaluable guidance for our team to be able to craft a successful campaign from start to finish. I personally learned a lot from the LaunchBoom team and I would very highly recommend working with them, especially if this is your first time entering the crowdfunding space, and you're committed to launching your concept/product successfully.

Working with Launchboom was overall a great experience. This was my first Kickstarter, so I was very oblivious of how to run a campaign, and Launchboom acted as my consultant throughout the entire process. The lessons were thorough, the responses were fast, and I feel as if I have learned so much. Shoutout to Soren - he's the man!

More than just a guide to Kickstarters! LaunchBoom is also a guide to marketing, product positioning, communication and even storytelling. My only regret is not working with LaunchBoom sooner. There are a billion little details that you have to align in order to launch a Kickstarter and LaunchBoom helps with all of them, both in static resources and in direct auditing. Super cool stuff, and I plan on using their strategies for product research, direct communication, vigorous testing and feature/story focus paradigms for every game I make.

I recently wrapped up my fourth Kickstarter campaign, and it was my first time working with LaunchBoom. This campaign raised over 20 times more than my previous three campaigns combined. While I had a great product, it wouldn’t have been nearly as successful without LaunchBoom.

Their online curriculum guides you through pre-campaign setup: landing page building, creating marketing assets, MailChimp integration, ad creation for Facebook and Instagram, and more.

The coaches are LaunchBoom’s most valuable asset. Their crowdfunding knowledge is incredible, they answered my many questions with patience, and there are three weekly opportunities to consult with them. Plus, their developers are always improving the platform. Their commitment to client success is evident in every aspect of their service.

I highly recommend LaunchBoom. They are truly game-changers in the crowdfunding world. Thank you, Soren, Hera, and Justin!

Victor was amazing to work with on the games team. Always responsive and helpful. Helped me feel more confident in my launch by making it about data, learning, and decision-making than hunches and feelings. Would use them again!

Our experience with Launchboom has been excellent! The program and all the associated tools are very user-friendly and the communication with the team is super good. Without Launchboom, our first Kickstarter campaign would not have been a success.

As a biz owner with 30+ years under my belt as a professional marketer and branding consultant, I have found it very rewarding and enlightening to go through the LaunchBoom process for our first couple of board game crowdfunding projects.

Lots of marketers out there claim they know how to build a bulletproof crowdfunding product development strategy; but few know how to put it all together in an effective, streamlined way. I really like how LaunchBoom has made the entire concept-to-market process so plug-and-play while balancing fundamental marketing principles with execution. Their training materials are thorough and well-organized. And when we've had questions, their responsiveness and attention to detail is extremely helpful.

LaunchBoom does their very best to keep their training materials in lock step with the constantly evolving 3rd party platforms that are integrated into their workflow. This is no easy task, as training videos and checklists need to be constantly updated. Very sporadically, a process may change and create a speed bump for clients; but LaunchBoom is quick to catch up, make updates, and notify us of the latest best practices and their impact on their process.

I highly recommend LaunchBoom as a partner if you want to learn how to navigate the road to a successful crowdfunding journey for your next game!

LaunchBoom is pretty much a comprehensive marketing education for Kickstarter creators. While we were familiar with many concepts of pre-launch and live Kickstarter marketing, the real treasure of this program is that it was comprehensive and very well organized into many short video lessons and templates that provided a structured way of approaching Kickstarter marketing.

Combine this with the extremely responsive expert team, and an engaging community of other games creators, the whole experience was extremely rewarding and gave us the confidence that we did everything we could to market our Kickstarter game correctly.

Will definitely work with them again in our future KS games!

Great experience with the tool they created. It helped us generate leads and keep track of how well things were performing. The $1 pledge really helped us estimate campaign success!
